Anxious attachment can make expressing a need, setting a boundary, or simply saying what you want feel dangerous. The fear of rejection, abandonment, or losing the relationship can keep a man trapped in silence and people pleasing.
Waiting for that fear to disappear only keeps the pattern alive. The fear begins to lose its grip when self-prioritization becomes action and what needs to be said is finally said.
Speak up even when it feels risky. Take the action afraid, do it scared, and stop allowing fear to decide whether your needs get expressed.
