Why Avoidants Disrespect You And the Hidden Truth Behind Their Cruelty (They’re Testing Your Love)

Welcome to The Healing Mirror, where emotional truth meets clarity, and the pain you’ve been avoiding finally becomes your power.
Why do avoidant partners disrespect the ones they love most? In this episode, I (Mel Robbins style) break down avoidant attachment: emotional armor, testing, power games, projection, self-sabotage — and the shocking paradox that disrespect often means you matter too much.
Most importantly, you’ll learn how to protect your peace, set boundaries, and love yourself enough to demand respect.
