So, it is really important to know exactly what to do and what not to do in such a situation. If this is happening to you right now, keep on reading and find out all the things not to do when a Pisces man distance himself.
Why Do Pisces Men Distance Themselves? 4 Reasons
Sometimes Pisces men distance themselves, but it isn’t always personal. It is so important to understand the reasons why Pisces men may distance themselves. Here are four possible reasons why a Pisces man might distance himself:
He Needs Time Alone To Recharge His Emotional Energy
This water Zodiac sign is known for his deep emotions and ability to absorb the emotions of others. This can make Pisces men prone to emotional exhaustion, and they may need some time alone to recharge and find balance within themselves.
When he needs time alone to recharge, it is crucial to respect his space and not take his distance personally. He will be a much happier version of himself and a better partner when he has had the time to recharge.
When a Pisces man pulls away, you should give him this space and not smother him with constant attention or demands for explanations. If he sees you are chilled and understanding of his need for alone time, he will appreciate your support and likely come back to you when he feels emotionally rejuvenated.

He Feels Overwhelmed or Stressed
Pisces men are highly sensitive and can easily become overwhelmed or stressed by external factors. When a Pisces man feels overwhelmed or stressed, he may distance himself as a coping mechanism.
He is the type of guy who tends to finds ways to escape reality when things become too overwhelming for him to handle. This is why he will tend to retreat into his own thoughts and inner world when he feels overwhelmed or stressed.
The last thing he needs is added pressure or demands from you when he is already feeling overwhelmed. Instead, give him space and let him know that you are there to support him when he is ready to open up.
He’s Unsure About His Feelings or the Relationship
Pisces men can be indecisive when it comes to their emotions and relationships. If a Pisces man is unsure about his feelings or the relationship, he may distance himself as a way to figure things out.
It can be really confusing for him to allow himself to be vulnerable and express his true emotions. So, if he is pulling away because he isn’t sure about his feelings or the relationship, it’s important not to pressure him or try to force him into making a decision.
Give him the time and space he needs to sort out his feelings. If you put too much pressure on him to commit or make a decision, it may cause him to withdraw even further. Remember, the key with a Pisces man is to be understanding, patient, and supportive.

He Feels Smothered or Controlled
Pisces men value their freedom and independence, and if they feel smothered or controlled in a relationship, they may distance themselves. They tend to be introverts by nature and need their alone time to recharge and reflect.
If a Pisces man feels smothered or controlled because you are constantly wanting his attention and invading his personal space, he may pull away. Instead, give him the freedom to have his personal space and time alone.
Sometimes he just feels too much and it can be really overwhelming for him. Trying to force him to open up or share his feelings will only make him retreat further into himself.

Is Your Pisces Man Distant After Intimacy?
Does your Pisces man pull away or get quiet when you’ve just had a deep emotional connection? Does he seem to disappear just when you thought he was getting closer? Have you felt confused by his hot and cold behavior?
If so, then he might have an avoidant attachment style.
He could be Dismissive Avoidant and completely terrified of commitment… Or he could be Fearful Avoidant and REALLY want commitment, but get scared when he feels himself getting closer to you.
If he has either one of these attachment styles, you’re going to end up feeling extremely confused at times.
And both are caused by childhood trauma.
When you can see the scared little boy inside him that had to shut down his feelings if he’s dismissive avoidant… Or have a parent not provide his needs consistently if he’s fearful avoidant…
It can make it easier to have empathy and compassion for his confusing and frustrating behavior.
But that won’t fix it.
And while advice on attachment styles can be helpful, what you really need to stop this frustrating hot and cold cycle is to understand him better.
Thankfully, there is a simple system to TRULY understand how he ticks based on his astrology.
It will stop him from pulling back when you begin feeling closer. And it will accomplish this in only 30 days.
So no more crying yourself to sleep when your Pisces man goes distant. No more feeling incredibly confused. And no more wondering what in the heck is going on with him…
Even if he has an avoidant attachment style.

Dear Anna,
My pieces husband has a feeling to a female friend ( cancer lady). I confronted him. He was offended and pull away. What should I do?
Thank you.
Hallo Anna,
After 3 weeks of having no contact with my picses man, I was a little mad and sad. So I decided to forgive him, so I could go on with my life. I said to him that I hoped that live was good to him and that he was happy. Immediatly he answered, that he was totally not happy. He had an operation on his eye and it did not went well. And he told about his backpain. He said that under these circumstances he always withdraw himself from everybody. But that he would come back to me soon. He is a tough man, thats what he wants to show, not his vulnerability. I think its touching.
Thanks Anna
