How do I keep myself from getting to attached to people?

It feels good to know to understand people at different level. Self esteem and self confidence grows. I wish I can do this same daily day by day with the help of 7 cups. 7 cups did a very well to reach out to people and listen to them and their problems and could provide a listening solution to them. I feel very much satisfied with the initiative made by 7 cups. I really liked the concept of 7 cups. I am and will continue to be with the 7 cups team and all the people coming here for help.

I would not recomend completely avoiding connections with people, however in the case of not being overly dependent on everyone I do have some personal experience and advice to give. Be self aware, understand when you are attatching too much to someone. Understand your habits as well, for me I understand I am being too attached to someone when I open up too much all the time so I try to stay aware of when I do this and tell myself "don't share that" or "handle this youself" It's good to have connections with people, but try not to feel obligated to being connected to everyone. I hope this helps you!

By loving yourself and giving time to your own self more. When you'll pay more attention to your own self you'll get less distracted by getting attached to others. Love yourself. Give time to yourself It is way better to treat yourself better instead of getting attached to somebody and giving them all your time love and attention. Try to live your life the way you want it to be instead of living it the way others want it to be. Because life is a beautiful gift and gotta live it for once so just dont waste it on someone else. Save your positive energy.

Getting attached to people can have risks, such as possible rejection or hurt feelings down the road. However, it can have so many rewards too, such as companionship, love, and good memories. It's common to feel a need to protect yourself from the risks of getting attached, especially if you've been hurt before, but then you'd be closing yourself off from the rewards as well. Sometimes to experience life's biggest joys we have to make ourselves vulnerable to the possibility that things won't work out the way we want them to. Luckily if we are hurt, there are always supportive people, like the listeners here on 7 Cups, that are ready to listen, because they've been there too, and they care about YOU.

I think of it like I am here for a season of their life. I am a guest, not a roommate. I can rinse my dishes, but it isn't my job to load the dishwasher. I think of myself as someone who is helping jump-start a strangers car in a parking lot to get them on their way to a mechanic. Still, I am not the mechanic — knowing that even if I find myself wanting to be in the person's life as a permanent friend, that it is not my job and that I can move on and let them learn to be independent and thrive on their own.

Getting attached is a very normal feeling. However, sometimes we might get too attached to the wrong person. That can be hurtful and can make us unwanted. So its okey to be attracted but make sure its someone who will response with mutual feelings. And if you feel like youre getting attached to someone that is not interested in you then try to avoid that person and stop contacting them as soon as possible

It is very hard to keep yourself from getting attached to people but sometimes you must learn to build a wall around your heart and feelings. You can slowly let trust slip out but be very cautious because once you start trusting people, you can become blind to anything bad they are doing to you. Once you do get attached to someone, it is very hard to stop being attached to them because you have probably already given so much to them. If they hurt you, learn from the mistake and tread cautiously. Attachment is a very hard thing to stop and it is even harder to get away.

i don't think you should keep yourself from getting attached because not al people are as bad as the other ones. you have to learn to choose selectively, don't trust everyone instantly and learn from the mistakes you make. human knowledge is something you learn while you're growing as a human-being so you can't expect to never make mistakes or to never get attached ever again cause at the end of the day everyone wants a trust person to talk or to listen to. you can always reach out to someone not close to you but that is an easy way out, you can't be afraid to get hurt your whole life because then you're never going to achieve anything in the society we live in today. when something goes wrong it's hopefully not going to be the end of the world but i get when it feels like that at the time. just remember you're going to be okay, you can be strong and you can't live life without getteing hurt, it happens to everyone but you'll come out stronger.

A loaded question for sure. My answer would be to be casual. The atmosphere around you should be simple and conent. That being said, getting too attached can have different meanings. If you are known to be overly possessive, and keeping a distance is your answer, then by all means, there are many easy ways to accomplish this. If the question is geared toward apathy and the fear of losing people close to you, then the question isnt worded right. It should be "How do i keep my close people close without losing them?". Loss is inevitable but in my years of experience, the good times are worth the pain 100%. That being said, the ideology behind this interpretation is too fearful and life shouldnt be lived that way because living in fear isnt living at all. Love and pain is how humans learn, a natural process that should be embraced

It's almost impossible. You're bound to find someone you can relate to or vise versa and they help you, and you help them. You can however be numb to emotions. The only thing I can tell you is, you have to communicate with people and set clear boundaries that you need to keep a distance. Or allow them to become Attatched over time. Attatchment is an issue of trust which makes sense as to why many people who have severe distrust in others choose to detach themselves from other people. My best advice, communicate with people and talk to them. If they truly care about you they'll understand.
