Test assumes you have been in a romantic relationship before

Your Results:
Of course, I suspect that people sometimes even think I'm disinterested because I don't want to impose or I feel like I don't have the energy.

How many dating threads have you posted on the forum over the last few years? Or advice on what someone means when they've texted you online? There has been extensive dialogue in those threads.
Look at the test results, and then look at your own descriptions of the things you've shared with the forum. The same attitudes are in both. The test just kind of highlights it all.
Nothing wrong with it, I was just pointing out the similarity.

What Explains The Size of Your Bubble?
Psychologists have found that people have different styles of forming relationships. These relationship styles are called attachment styles. Attachment styles are made up of two components: anxiety and avoidance. Anxiety refers to the extent that you worry that others won't like you or might abandon you. Avoidance refers to how much you dislike being too close to other people. People with different levels of anxiety and avoidance desire different levels of closeness in their relationships.

Secure individuals have low anxiety and avoidance. For the most part, they form close, comfortable relationships.
Preoccupied individuals have high anxiety and low avoidance. They like to feel close to other people, but may worry a lot about being abandoned in their relationships.
Dismissing individuals have high avoidance and low anxiety. They want to maintain control in their relationships, and don't like it when other people get too close.
Fearful-avoidant individuals have high avoidance and high anxiety. They may feel conflicting emotions in their relationships--wanting to feel close, but also fearing and disliking closeness.
