Why Do I Miss the Person Who Hurt Me? Understanding the Trauma Bond

Missing someone who hurt you does not mean the relationship was healthy—or that you should return. When affection and pain are repeatedly mixed, your nervous system can become attached to a cycle of hurt, hope, and temporary relief. This is often called a trauma bond.

You may not be missing the mistreatment. You may be missing the good moments, the promises, and the person you hoped they would become. Healing begins when you stop judging yourself and start seeing the pattern clearly.

My upcoming book, Your Worth Was Never Negotiable, will help you understand the relationships that made you forget who you are—and guide you back to your worth.
