I have really bad trust issues so I normally don’t get close to people. But once I do I become like a puppy. I just follow them around and let them do anything to me and do anything they say. It’s like I either don’t have anything to do with someone, or I lay my life in their hands.

One example is my dad and best friend. I don’t trust my dad at all so I usually ignore or hide from him. But I was like a dog to my best friend and would anything for her.
Now though I’m finding I’m distancing from her too.

I want to love people and them love me, but whenever they get close I end up seeing them the same way and back away. I’m not trying to toy with them, but it’s like I don’t know how to have relationships or actually love people. I thought I loved my best friend, but I just realized that I probably love my dog more than her.

What is wrong with me? I’ve been this way since I was a little kid. I’m a teenager now. It’s like every person I’ve gotten close too has either dumped me or I’ve gotten scared and run away.
IIN? Can anyone else relate to this?

    If you really want to change this, it'd be better to have some therapy rather than expecting strangers on the internet to help you work it out.

    Many people behave like that and it's usually from unresolved trauma in the past.

      I think you need to think before commenting buddy. My dad is not innocent like my friend. He’s done things to me that have made me afraid of him. That and he’s not even my real dad. Think before assuming everyone’s life is the same as yours.
