Abstract

As the vital development of human beings progresses, interpersonal relationships change significantly, giving rise to certain bonds of an affective nature, called attachment. This process contributes to the regulation of the emotional system of any person, regardless of sex. Objective: To analyze the influence of parental attachment styles experienced in childhood on developing emotional dependence in young adults. Methodology: A bibliographic/documentary research, developed under a descriptive design and qualitative approach, cross-sectional, based on reliable theoretical foundations from various sources of scientific information properly referenced. Results: Developed parental attachment can become detrimental and influence the achievement of emotionally dependent relationships, harming any people involved in a couple's relationship. A positive or negative correlation exists between parental attachment styles and emotional dependence in young couples' relationships. Conclusions: The affective bond with the caregiver influences the type of relationships that the infant forms with other individuals in their close environment and contributes to the acquisition of social skills for future stages. The main parental attachment styles are secure, avoidant, ambivalent, and disorganized, which directly impact the quality of their sentimental relationships, which tends to configure a scenario in which love is perceived as a necessity and a source of serious conflicts.
