“This is perhaps the central and most consistent cruelty of avoidance — that it inflates what it fears. The difficult conversation, approached with honesty and genuine care, is rarely as devastating as the months of anticipation suggested. The painful feeling, when finally allowed to surface and move through, is rarely as overwhelming as the years of outrunning it implied.”
