Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Insecurity is the hallmark of this adult attachment type. When an adult shows this type of attachment, it is not a matter of if a romantic partner leaves them, but when. With the constant fear or worry that the partner isn't really in love with them, anxious/ambivalent adults latch onto or cling to their partner and push for commitment - and in doing so, oftentimes push the partner completely out of the picture. Poor attachment in adulthood can prohibit a person from getting too emotionally close to an attachment figure, causing them to withdraw and pull away before they get rejected.
