Why do I get attached so easily?

Post Body

I'm 17 and I know I'm not ready or willing to get into a committed relationship. Yet whenever any girl starts to give me attention for more than a few weeks and I begin to reciprocate, I get so fucking attached. I obsess over them even though I know I would never actually ask them to be my girlfriend. I get anxious or jealous that they're talking to other guys, I hate it when they ghost me, I hate it when they break the routine we have texting, and they're just on my mind constantly. I ask them out and we have fun together, but I think they eventually realize I'm not completely interested because I never make any kind of move. So when they start to pull away, I lose it and it's all I can think about. Am I just an attention-seeker? Am I leading these girls on? How do I stop these obsessions and unhealthy thoughts?
