Ever since I was a child, I've been overly attached to friends I feel very close to. I get jealous when they hang out with other people. I become anxious and upset when they don't respond to my phone calls or emails. And I become crushed when they ignore my friend requests for Facebook.
Recently I found an old friend on Facebook. I sent her a friend request, but she didn't respond. She did respond to request from my other friends right away, though. After a few days, she ignored my request. I was really disappointed because I was hoping to hang out with her again (and I have a secret crush on her.) But what really set me off was when I saw a photo of three of my friends hanging out with her at a restaurant, without me. That was the straw that broke the camel's back. I cried that night and the next morning I even contemplated suicide (I know this seems a little dramatic, but that's how I really felt.)
I don't want to be overly attached to other people anymore. What should I do to have healthier friendships?
