I feel like TBoSaS fans can be put into these categories
Fans who idealize Coriolanus Snow:
- oh, Coryo is so handsome and smart, of course, he couldn’t be wrong!
- either think that Coryo was right about Sejanus deserving to die or say they know it was basically murder and that Coryo was a killer but don't care because Coryo is handsome and/or they like him #HaloEffect
- believes Coryo is more intelligent than everyone around him, he deserves the best #SnowLandsOnTop
- livin’ on TikTok edits
Fans disillusioned about Coriolanus Snow:
- believe that Coriolanus is a monster ever from the start of the book until the very end
- often don’t care about the background that Coryo grew up and developed in
- often read/portray Coryo as an incel, a dude completely entrapped in toxic masculinity, or a straight-up psychopath or a sociopath
- “OMG Lucy Gray run away from him!!1!”
Fans with an insecure attachment style and childhood trauma:
- understand the trauma and background that Coriolanus grew up in and that largely contributed to him becoming a monster in his early adulthood (Capitol is a morally rotten place)
- simultaneously don’t excuse his crimes - the fact that Coryo was largely shaped by an awful environment doesn’t excuse murder but it explains how he ended up in this place
- relate to Coryo’s mental health issues in many ways
- understand that Coryo was more of a human doing than human being, that his whole self-perception and self-esteem was based on the pressure to reclaim the honor for Snow's name as the last man in his family and on the lack of secure relationships for most of his time (his grandmother influenced him more than Tigris + outside of his household he was constantly pressured to pretend to be someone else)
———————
Of course, don’t treat this too seriously, just sharin’ my thoughts and perceptions

When love is unreliable and you are a child, you assume that it is the nature of love – its quality – to be unreliable. Children do not find fault with their parents until later. In the beginning the love you get is the love that sets.

Reminder to self: The goal is not to be free of insecurity or imperfection *before* building relationships. The goal is to learn how to own and work through insecurity *while* being vulnerable with the people you love.

🌼✨ Hey friends! 🌼✨
So, let’s talk about something that’s kinda like a hidden garden in our hearts: fearful avoidant attachment. 🌿🌺
Imagine a beautiful flower that wants to bloom but is afraid of the bees 😧🐝. That's us! We crave connection, yet we sometimes push people away because we’re scared of getting hurt. It’s like wanting a cozy blanket fort but being terrified of the dark shadows lurking outside. 🏰💔
But here’s the cute part: recognizing this pattern can be the first step towards making our garden flourish! 🌸💖 Instead of hiding from the bees, maybe we can learn to trust them a little more. It’s all about gentle steps—like leaving tiny openings in our fort for the light to shine through! ☀️✨

People with childhood emotional abuse trauma, listen, for I mean this from the bottom of my heart:
Loyalty is not love.
Being useful to someone is not love.
Being what someone wants from you is not love.
Giving someone everything you are is not love.

Remembered that my ex once got really depressed and jealous bc I was talking about how much I liked Audrey Hepburn. and I’m like. Oh so you kept dating that person for several months huh. That was a decision we made.
#they were like ‘I don’t know if I could ever make you as happy as she does’ and it’s like. the actress who’s been dead for several decades??#they weren’t trying to be manipulative they just had such an extremely insecure and anxious attachment style#which was wild for me as someone who had always been the anxiously attached one in relationships before that point#yknow maybe it’s good that I just decided not to date for several years after that

The Silent Distance
In the shadows where love’s light fades,
You hide, where fear’s cold cascade,
Attachment’s tendrils, you brush aside,
Closeness, a peril you can’t abide.
Love’s gentle whisper, a chilling call,
In your heart, it builds a wall,
All that’s precious, all that’s near,
Turns to ghosts you swiftly steer.
I chanced upon your heart, so cold,
In tepid waters, stories untold,
What was I? A fleeting need,
A means to sate, your fear to feed.
You claim a void, emotions stilled,
In a world where love’s pulse is chilled,
Yet within, a spark, a silent plea,
A hope to set your spirit free.
Believe in you, take courage’s hand,
Face the fear, let your heart expand,
To open up, to feel, to share,
A heart unbound, a soul laid bare.

From The Power of Attachment by Diane Poole Heller
[Text ID:
AN INTRODUCTION TO ATTACHMENT STYLES
The human attachment system is an inherent, biological, and natural process that relates to everything we do in life, especially when it comes to our relationships with others. Although secure attachment is what we're after here, it's important to note that whatever attachment style we live with evolved to keep us safe. Even insecure attachment patterns are designed to help us survive dangerous situations, and none of these styles are set in stone. The next four chapters look at each of these four adaptations in depth and provide ways to work with them. Here's a quick overview to get us going:
Secure Attachment. This is the type of attachment in the ideal situation described earlier. Securely attached people typically grew up with plenty of love and support from consistently responsive caregivers, and as adults they are interdependent, connecting with others in healthy, mutually beneficial ways. 'They are okay both in connection and on their own; they can think with fexibility, can perceive a range of possibilities, are comfortable with differences, and resolve conficts without much drama. They can internalize the love they feel from others and forgive easily.
Avoidant Attachment. People with this attachment style have a tendency to keep intimacy at arm's length or to diminish the importance of relationships. They often were neglected: left alone too much as children, rejected by their caregivers, or their parents weren't present enough (or only present when teaching them some type of task). Avoidants have disconnected- put the brakes on-their attachment System, so reconnecting to others in safe and healthy ways is extremely important
Ambivalent Attachment. People with the ambivalence adaptation deal with a lot of anxiety about having their needs met or feeling secure in being loved or lovable. Their parents might have shown them love, but as children they never knew when their parents might get distracted and utterly pull the rug out from underneath them. Their care was unpredictable of notably intermittent. They be hypervigilant about relational slights or any hint of abandonment, which amps up their attachment system into overdrive. Anticipating the impending inevitability of abandonment that they are convinced is coming, they often feel sad, disappointed, or angry before anything actually happens in their adult relationships. For ambivalents, consistency and reassurance are paramount.
Disorganized Attachment. This attachment style is characterized by an excess of fear, and the attachment system is at cross purposes with the instinct to survive threat. When stressed, sick, or frightened, a child naturally wants to seek comfort and protection from a loving parent, but what do they do when the same Parent is the source of fear or distress? People with this style can get stuck in a threat response and/or swing between avoidance and ambivalence without much of an identifiable pattern. They often suffer from psychological and physical confusion. Disorganized parents may fear their own children. As children, they saw their parents as threatening, or their parents simply emanated an atmosphere of fear or dread due to their own unresolved trauma. Disorganized folks are often emotionally dysregulated, dealing with sudden shifts in arousal, or dissociated and checked out. Since they are prone to the most disturbance, reestablishing a fundamental sense of regulation and relative safety are the most important things for people with this attachment style.

i think. i might be the best boyfriend ever. i fear
#i have never been so serious#i used to be a walking red flag because i'm emotionally repressed and have an avoidant attachment style#and both of those things are still true#but the difference is now i don't act cold and distant and run away when i feel things#i mean like i DO but not all the time and not on purpose anymore#and it's like i'm not in a position yet to be free of certain insecurities#but i no longer act as if they aren't there#i just mask them by projecting all of my shortcomings onto being nice to the other person#it's like i never had anyone to trust or feel safe around so i will just make sure you trust me and feel safe around me#i will buy you everything you have ever wanted and do anything you want because i am loyal like that#i can't make people loyal to me i can't make them care in the exact same way that i do#but i CAN give someone else that energy so that they feel good#and guess what it's actually rewarding. because other people like when you do that#who knew#(let me bite anyone who wrongs you. let me wait on you when you are tired. PLEASE)
