What does it mean when someone is emotionally unavailable?

Generally speaking, the term emotionally unavailable refers to a person who doesn’t like to talk about the relationship, becomes evasive, makes up excuses or tries to avoid intimacy. It is usually more difficult for an emotionally unavailable person to receive love and other emotions which in turn makes it hard for them to understand the impact of it on others.
