I had everything under control: my academic life, professional things, friends, etc. I was staying away from the dating scene intentionally thinking that my biggest trigger was having an FP. But I failed and started talking to this guy who was the cutest for the first few weeks than completely turned around and is now acting like he doesn't even care. I once again learned that seeing someone casually was not my cup of tea because I desire and need validation, assurance, trust. 

Can someone please tell me it'll all work out? I don't see a way out from the torture my brain is putting me in and it's making me act all needy which makes me hate myself. How do I stop this and let go? I don't know what to do or how to escape from all this. I just want to be at peace and calm. Is this possible for us, and how?
