This result reflects a primary Chaser pattern, with Lone Wolf tendencies as a secondary survival response. You lead with connection-seeking and emotional intensity — but when that vulnerability doesn’t feel safe or reciprocated, you retreat into self-reliance.
At the core, you’re driven by the Chaser: the part of you that longs to feel chosen, prioritized, and emotionally close. You often initiate, reach out, and try to create a sense of “we” — especially when you feel uncertainty in the relationship. Your nervous system equates closeness with safety, and distance with danger. So when something feels off, your first instinct is to close the gap. But that vulnerability doesn’t come without risk.
Enter your secondary pattern — the Lone Wolf. When your efforts to connect aren’t met, or when your emotions feel dismissed, a different part of you steps in. You shut down, pull back, and try to convince yourself you don’t need anyone. It's not indifference — it's defense. You isolate as a form of protection, but underneath that distance is a deep hurt: “I tried. I opened. And it still wasn’t safe.”
This combination creates a push-pull dynamic internally. You care deeply, but struggle with what to do when that care isn’t returned. You might oscillate between wanting to be fully seen and wanting to disappear. You might even shame yourself for needing too much, then resent yourself for pulling away.
Your core wound is tied to inconsistent emotional safety. At some point, reaching for love came with risk — and when it wasn’t met, you learned to do it all alone. You became someone who chases connection, but also someone who knows exactly how to survive without it. The result? A heart that craves intimacy but a nervous system that doesn’t always trust it.
✨ The good news? These patterns are protective, not permanent. You’re not too much. You’re not too distant. You’re someone who learned how to survive both abandonment and disappointment — and now, you get to unlearn what’s no longer serving you.
