I think a lot of people believe that having a secure attachment style will solve all there problems (ie, never feeling unpleasant feelings, no conflict, endless peace). But secure attachment is more about an internalized sense of trust, safety, and belief that you can figure out problems as they arise.
Securely attached people tend to be comfortable with intimacy, are emotionally resilient, and capable of maintaining stable, trusting relationships. Secure attachments are still humans and will have human experiences (including destabilizing events, heartbreak, and pain).
The most prominent characteristic of secure attachment is their resiliency—they’re able to get back to baseline quicker.
