Even when I'm with family or other friends, I don't want to be there, I just want to be with that one person. I've always been like this since I was a little kid. I often tell people I can't make it out somewhere unless I know the person I'm closest to has plans to do something else, even then I can't stop thinking about that person the whole night and can't wait to get back to be with them. How do I break myself of this?

My husband and I are like this too. We are together every day and we barely do any thing unless we are together. Our family is upset with us because we aren't good at sharing our time with them. I don't know how to help you, just wanted you to know you aren't alone.

My boyfriend is the same way and it kinda gets in the way. I mean I love that he wants to be around me but he's 21 years old and asking me if its ok that he go to bed or if he goes fishing with some guy friends. If i tell him I'm going off with my cousin or something he calls me a bunch just to see how I'm feeling and if I'm thinking about him. I love him completely but he's getting a little clingy. The best thing I can think of is exactly what I told him, just handle it, surround yourself with other people...have a lot of fun. Then as a reward see this person you care so much about. Makes it more worth it.

I have been the same way all my life. i think it's called being co-dependent. Not sure about that, though. In my case, I think I was over-nurtured by my mother, so I never wanted to leave her side. Also, she always took up for me when my dad wanted to beat the crap out of me. She became my person, totally. This pattern has repeated all my life. I zero in on one person, and they are my main person for a period of my life. As to solution, I haven't found one. But it is interesting to know we aren't alone in our condition.

you can't sweetheart, you will have to live this way for ever and ever and ever and ever.....
Don't worry though, it's a form of possessiveness, I suffer from it too
