ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this episode of Attachment Theory, Aubrie explores what happens when attraction turns into fantasy, and we fall in love with who someone could be instead of how they actually show up.
Through personal reflection and attachment theory, this episode unpacks romanticizing, dating potential, and the ways we rewrite red flags to protect hope and avoid disappointment. From confusing anxiety with chemistry to staying loyal to a future that never arrives, Delusional is about learning how to come back to reality with compassion, self-trust, and a clearer sense of what real love actually requires.
