Fixated Anchor

Definition

Over-active Focus meets centered Bond. One partner's attentional capacity is narrowed past regulation while the other's attachment capacity remains calibrated. The state pair places concentrated attention beside proportionate connection without establishing who is targeted, whether pressure is felt, or how the tie responds.
