I have a new housemate who just moved in and she's so friendly and puts me at ease which not many do. As a result I can feel myself latching on, I just want to talk to her and be around her and feel so disappointed if she goes to her room. I want to be her best friend and spend time with her. I'm worried I'll scare her off or drain her, but I'm also glad I have the self awareness to notice it because I haven't in the past. So I guess that's a positive.

Can anyone relate? It's difficult when this happens because I always end up pushing people away or feeling hurt or let down when they don't reciprocate.
