I think you should at least talk to them, as friends, and then if you feel as if you're getting attached, just talk with them. Communication is very important!

Personal boundaries for me is the answer. Don't talk to that person every day even though you want to. Sometimes it's hard but the more you do it the easier it will get

There is nothing wrong in getting attached to people. It's a sign that you're a human. What's not healthy is when you depend yourself too much to these people. You depend your happiness or emotion rather to them. That's not healthy anymore because you're now being held in the neck.

It's probably best if you focus on yourself. Work on your self-esteem before building relationships. Before you can love someone you have to love yourself.

From my own point, Attachment is an emotional chaos, its okay to be close to people like to open up or to talk but a state of attachment is when you know someone is filling out a piece of your life, now that can be unhealthy if you have failed expectation towards that person, but attachment can be controlled even tho you get close to someone, just set your mind not to expect not to be sentimental over things that you cannot control. but the bottom line here, its important to love yourself, to secure yourself and be assured of who you are, so that whether you go on your own you can live with it and if someone goes in your life and left, hurt or disappoint you it will get not be affected. You need to build yourself first before you can enter into attachment and in the end no matter what will happen whether attachment will work or not you will not loose. You just have to condition your mind, it's all in the mind, you have to control yourself

We are two with that issue now! Well I am trying, personally, to think that people meets but it's a decision of both persons to remain together or sometimes something happens and that person moves to another country or else.
So it's good to have that in mind I think.

Attachment isn't necessarily a bad thing. Humans thrive on social interaction and to feel a sense of community is often to feel a sense of comfort and safety.
If you feel that in any given instance it is not appropriate or detrimental to your health, maybe it is best to take a step back from the situation, take some time to breathe and understand why it is you feel this way.
You do not need others to feel happy as you are yourself a complete and wholesome individual.
When we learn to feel comfortable with our own company, then we can move forward with out relationships without a strong need for dependence.

I understand how much you are afraid of getting attached to people. Well, if you want to keep yourself getting attached to people, first figure out the reason behind why you are getting attached to people and set some boundaries accordingly.

You can keep yourself from getting too attached to people by after getting the support you need from one person instead of counting on the same person, look further into your support network and reach out to family or friends to support through ongoing challenges you maybe having too.
