“chasing an avoidant partner”

I fell in love with an avoidant partner, but they kept pulling away. I tried to win them back, but it only led to more pain and heartache.

What I wish I knew
"Avoidant partners don't change, and chasing them is a waste of time."
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't chase an avoidant partner; it's better to move on and find someone who truly loves you back."
