A person who does everything within their power to avoid taking accountability for their life and decisions. They'll expect their lives to improve magically through no effort of their own, have an acute and outspoken sense of toxic entitlement, and blame circumstances out of their control, society, or mental health, for their bad fortune while actively avoiding all actions that would lead them to betterment. The typical avoider will live with someone vulnerable to their alleged plight and leech off them, creating a manipulative, abusive and/or at least parasitic relationship that loops each time a solution is suggested.
Avoiders become aggressive when advice is given to them, no matter how convenient or simple, as anyone with a differing view or options is painted as not trying to understand them but causing more stress instead. This is done as a shield, and often recalled for the express purpose of acting out a guilt trip. As they often have no real income they may be found begging and manipulating their friends for money, then bragging about how well they're doing, until the funds run out. Avoiders are unwilling to change and should, in turn, be avoided themselves.
