The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Carmen often complains that the men she meets are distant and cannot commit to her. She falls in love easily and is very sexual. Her relationships are marked by extreme happiness, jealousy, and dark despair. According to the attachment theory of love, her colleagues would most likely classify her as an adult with ambivalent attachment.

We are talking about the ambivalent of preoccupied attachment disorder. The attachment theory of love states that the kind of care and love you received as a child influences the way you romanticly relate as an adult. So in the psychologist's perspective, the ambivalent of preoccupied attachment disorder occurs when the mother showed no permanent forms of love to the child. This creates a kind of trauma to the individual that as an adult makes it dependable on other persons.
