a person who stubbornly moonwalks away from love, even when it's standing right in front of them, offering unwavering care and late-night gaming sessions. A Contravolta will convince themselves they're doing the "right thing" by pulling away, all while secretly orbiting the person they left like a satellite of regret. Someone who mistakes safety for danger, dodging emotional connection like it’s a threat - not because the relationship is wrong, but because feeling that much joy makes them panic-spin into emotional limbo.
"He pulled a total contravolta - said he couldn't do it anymore even though he knows deep down what they had was real"
