unattachable
Impossible to affix
Not capable of being attached.
Something unattachable lacks the means or compatibility to connect to something else: The bracket was unattachable without the right screws.
The word also applies to people who resist emotional bonds or commitments: He seemed permanently unattachable, never settling into relationships.
