is there some kind of disorder or not really a disorder but a name for someone who....?
gets attached to people...I dont get easily attached but after I feel like i can trust them which usually takes awhile I get to where I have to talk to them. Not really obsessed but attached I guess...i dont know how to explain it. Any clues out there?
I dont not take advantage of people ever. If anything I give more to these people than I take. They are people I care about.

Hi Melinda, you don't say that it is a problem with you! But I assume that you are uncomfortable with the subject. If so, I would not panic, it will come to pass. However, your will have to search the reason(s) why trust attracts you to them just to talk to them. Look into family loneliness, attention deficits, peer relationships. Self-confidence. Judging by your answers on other questions you seem very intelligent and well balanced. So you have the intellectual potential and the emotional stamina to fix this problem alone or with outside help. Please do it. Good luck.

i used to be a sempathetic person and people took great advantage at my expense. i think the word that comes to mind for someone that trusts too soon and becomes attached too quickly is "sucker" dont be one a small dose of A$$hole in your personality would work wonders. and stop people from using you,(that is if its gotten to that point yet. )

I kind of went through a period like that myself. It is real hard to explain, and some people call it co-dependent, but I am not sure it falls into that category. You can google copendent and see if it applies to you. Also, sometimes we all get lonely, and just need to talk to someone -if you need to talk to someone you can feel free to e-mail me and I'll talk to you. Good luck and God Bless!

Histrionic personality traits (the attachment thing and your vague speech that lacks detail are both traits of this kind of personality).
