Attachment Issues: Balancing Love and Independence
Fully attaching yourself is kind of like a drug addiction. Once you get there, you enjoy it so much you don't want to give it up. And then, once you're lonely, you start having withdrawals and you really want someone to be there, even though that might not be the case.
