Avoidant Stories

Moriah Kennedy left home as a young girl in hopes of starting a new life for herself. Fast-forward 10 years: she's 26, with her own private practice, living in Houston with her beloved cat, Venus. After everything that's happened to her, she was sure she'd be alone for good, so much so that she's closed herself off to the ideas she once had of prince charming and happily ever after. Keegan Brandwell is a 30-year-old physical therapist. The moment he sees her, he's taken with her and moves to pursue her. Moriah won't let him in easily, but Keegan doesn't back down from a challenge; in fact, he embraces them. "Before I do this with you, I need to know that you're in it, no leaving, no outs. I don't-" her voice cried into my chest. My hands rested on her cheeks, guiding her face up until our eyes met. "Listen to me. I'm not going anywhere. I'm with you, I'll always be with you. There is nowhere else I'd rather be. "

Goodbye Vehi-town, hello Oak-Haven. For Charlie, this move isn't just about a new house; it's a total system reboot. At sixteen, he's a messy haired boy with a constellation of freckles across his nose and cheeks, looking way too innocent for the storm that's about to hit him. The plan was simple: survive the first day of school, find a decent group of friends, and keep a low profile. But Oak-Haven High has other plans. Among the crowded hallways and the scent of floor wax and old lockers, Charlie's world shifts when he's forced to share a dorm with Noah Flowber, the bad boy from his class. Noah is the definition of "stay away": the local bad boy with a reputation that precedes him and a gaze that feels like a challenge.

Charlie Linwood has always been alone. After his mother died when he was 12 years old and his father left Charlie and his 20 year old sister Ophelia into their own hands for another woman who strictly didn't want any children a year later, he was content with letting nobody past the boundaries of his own isolated bubble. Ophelia worked in two different jobs, and Charlie began to help at the age of 14 to sustain their lifestyle slightly more efficiently. Besides that, him being alone has created multiple sets of hobbies for him to busy himself with. One of them was journaling. Yet, he never wrote as any normal person would. He would write in poetry. In a way that would make his miserable life seem more imaginative in a sad, melancholic yet interesting aspect. Constructing his life into metaphors and similes to develop a point of view that isn't so boringly depressing. Lavinia Cresswell wasn't exactly a loner. She enjoyed being with people, any way to distract herself from her terrible home life. She lived with her aunt and uncle, after both her parents had passed away when she was fairly young and had no one left but them two. They were known for being disliked by all family members as they were unhealthy, abusive addicts, yet she had no choice. Lavinia had lived with their torment, yet despite having her group of friends, she seems to never be able to speak up about it. Her friends carry minor burdens, ones which Lavinia cares to prioritize because, well, they're her friends, yet despite all of that she's never felt seen by any of them at all. She's the one lingering in the back, weakly laughing to inside jokes she was never apart of, trying to tell a story but getting cut off and staying quiet to be respectful. Lavinia wasn't a loner, yet she felt so alone. A new school year, meaning new classmates. Fortunately, Charlie and Lavinia end up in the same classroom, and after years of never interacting, this year is when a spark will bloom for them both.

No boyfriend since birth, Eris Seriah Tan has chosen career over love for as long as she can remember. The moment her feelings grow complicated, she leaves-firm in her belief that meeting two people in the same place doesn't exist and hearts are safest when guarded. ‎ ‎But Connan Radley Yu always shows up in her life, in unexpected places, in circles of friends she doesn't think that kaibigan siya ng isa sa circle of friends niya, a shared elevator ride, moments that feel too deliberate to ignore. No matter how far she runs, the universe seems intent on pulling her back. ‎Now Seri must decide to build and protect herself, risk believing that some connections are meant to be felt, not explained.

He was sunshine I was midnight rain He wanted it comfortable I wanted that pain He wanted a bride I was making my own name Chasing that fame He stayed the same All of me changed Like midnight rain

Ashian Channel Cambria never expected to fall in love with Rhys Jude Patrino. First, it was meant to be simple, no promises, no feelings attached-just fubu lang. But the longer they stay in each other's lives, the harder it becomes to ignore the feelings quietly taking root beneath casual nights and unspoken rules. ‎In a connection without labels, Ashian must confront the question she's avoided the most. What happens when love refuses to stay undefined?

This poem explores the painful and complex dynamics of anxious and avoidant attachment. Through a deeply emotional and spiritual journey, the poem reflects on the internal struggle of a woman caught in the cycle of attachment, where love is mistaken for a need to feel validated, wanted, and complete. As she stands next to the person she once thought was her everything, she comes face to face with a heartbreaking realization-she's not truly in love with him, but with the illusion of what their relationship could have been. The poem captures the deep inner conflict she feels as she grapples with the pull to stay, despite knowing that this pattern of love is unhealthy and self-destructive. She is, at once, pulled by the comfort of familiarity and the painful truth that her true growth can only come from walking away. It's a journey of self-liberation, as she chooses to break free from the past versions of herself who chose toxic love over self-love. Ultimately, the poem is about the strength to let go of attachments that no longer serve her, and the quiet, painful wisdom that she must choose herself-no matter how difficult that decision is.

DO NOT READ, This is nonsense I have no one to rant about my feelings and sadness so I write it all.

A vampire named Szandor Aranyos only wished for solitude. Instead, he finds himself with a crying human child. Alongside him: an elderly druid with psychedelic herbs, a lynx with its own motives, and a child determined to explore every abyss of parental attachment issues. This is a story about reluctant care, dysfunctional family dynamics, existential weariness, and the sting of emotional neglect.

She finds peace in music and solitude, a world where no one asks too much or demands too much of her. Independent, strong, and fiercely private, she loves freely but fears closeness love feels suffocating when it leans too near. He loves her deeply, but her distance confuses him, making him question her loyalty and her heart. He wants her entirely, yet every step he takes closer seems to push her away. In a story of longing, miscommunication, and the delicate balance between love and freedom, they struggle to understand each other. She yearns for love without losing herself, and he yearns for closeness without losing trust. But when love pulls in opposite directions, can they ever meet in the same rhythm? Music is her anchor. Love is their storm

She was the chaos he never wanted. But now, he'd burn the world just to keep her." Asaline Vega doesn't follow rules-she breaks them with heels on and a savage smirk. She's fire in human form, and Kairos Han? He's the quiet storm that never saw her coming. In a world of secrets, silences, and stolen glances, their connection isn't just attraction-it's war. She's bold, untamed, and unapologetically herself. He's brooding, avoidant, and logical to a fault. But when destiny throws them into each other's orbit, sparks ignite-and so do ruins. This isn't a love story. It's destruction dressed in red lipstick and black hoodies. 💔 Best friends to lovers. 🔥 Lovers to exes. ⚡Exes to... something much more dangerous. Let the art of ruin begin.

It's easy to fall in love. But it breaks hearts to know it won't be reciprocated. Atleast not in the way you want.Yet you cant step back. At all. The title came out of my dyslexic tendencies. This story is for the people who had high hopes of love crushed to oblivion all because their lover is a "stoic" man. Might be a happy ending. Y/n is obsessive and Ryuu is dismissive
