Am I Emotionally Unavailable Quiz

Are you ever accused of being afraid of commitment or intimacy?

Do you have a hard time or feel highly uncomfortable sharing your feelings with others?

Have you been unable to sustain emotional bonds in your relationships? 

Do you often ask yourself,” Am I emotionally unavailable?”

Although you may have answered yes to some or all of these questions, it is much more difficult to tell if you are actually emotionally unavailable and even harder to come to terms with this if you indeed are.

Being emotionally unavailable usually stems from harrowing and vulnerable experiences that are not comfortable for you to work through or even think about.

Still, it may be necessary if you hope to overcome it. To find out if you are unable to truly emotionally connect with others, take this quiz today!
