What is a love avoider? Good question. We’ll put it to you like this. Pretty much, it’s another way of saying, “commitment-phobe." Love avoiders are the individuals who, on the surface, appear to like relationships. But when you look deeper, you see that being in one is actually the LAST thing they want.

And just how can you---pardon the play on words---avoid being with a love avoider (or more importantly, becoming one yourself)? Check out these signs. If you recognize any of them, pump your emotional breaks a bit. Otherwise, you could be in for a real ride.

About Shellie Reneé

Just a woman who digs all things relationships. HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS, that is. I've been writing (professionally) for close to 20 years, including having two books published. I'm also a marriage life coach and doula. Sometimes I speak to large audiences or do radio interviews, but usually I'm sitting in my favorite chair, surfin' the 'net and penning stuff that I wish I had read in my early 20s.

Listen, I don't have all the answers, not by a LOOOOONG shot. But whatever I can do to spare folks any heartbreak, bitterness or straight-up drama, I'll devote some keystrokes to doing. 

That's it...in a nutshell. For the most part. Kinda. ;)
