💞 Understanding Attachment Styles

Attachment theory helps us understand how our earliest relationships influence how we connect today. At Amor, we use this insight to help match you with people who support your emotional needs — not challenge them.

Each style influences how we give and receive love. By becoming aware of your attachment style, you can grow, heal, and foster more secure connections — both romantic and otherwise.
