Why does distance feel so threatening? Why does a missed text, a tone shift, or an argument spark panic, anger, or shutdown? In this episode of Married & Confused, we unpack abandonment wounds—how they often begin in childhood and quietly shape the way we show up in adult relationships.

We explore the difference between reacting to what’s happening now and reliving what once felt unsafe or uncertain. You’ll learn how abandonment shows up as clinging, people-pleasing, emotional withdrawal, control, or constant reassurance-seeking—and why these patterns make so much sense when viewed through a survival lens.

If you’ve ever thought, “Why am I this way in relationships?”—this episode is for you.
