i think a thing people aren't really understanding about this is that by conflict avoidant I do not mean "chill easygoing people who don't make a big deal about things", I mean "people who will let the ways you've slighted them fester and grow until it consumes your relationship"

the sluttiest thing a femme can do is shyly lay her head on your shoulder while you are watching tv, and then after 20 or 30 minutes of anxiously working up the courage turning her head to face yours so that you are inches apart and ask "..can i kiss you"

This advice won't be for everyone, but: anytime you're tempted to say "I was traumatized by X", try reframing this in your internal dialogue as "After X, my brain incorrectly learned that Y".
