This week we are discussing the theory of attachment in adults. That may sound daunting, but it's actually quite simple.

Some people react by becoming clingy and impulsive, and others react by pushing the other person away. In this episode we discuss the four main categories of attachment style, and how these may manifest differently in multiple relationships.
