I think we must first love and accept ourselves before we're able to understand why attachments don't happen or break easily. I'm not saying that this is what is going on with you; I'm certainly no expert.


That could be, good point. I have read about that as well. However in my case it is just a garden variety case of my mother abandoned me often as a preteen. Not making the correct mother child bonds. Nothing new here. Rather straight ahead. My lack of being able to make attachments and fear of abandonment is txt book reading and something I discussed with a therapist at length
