I think I have attachment issues.  


What I see in myself are that, I tend to open up too fast with new people, and become very attached quickly, but I don't actually trust them at that point. I'm very friendly, and I tend to agree with everything the other person says (excluding really clearly fucked up things ofc).   
You don't see my real opinions until I've known you long enough to start being honest.  


I went through my life wondering why I'm not more reserved or misanthropic given the nature of my experiences (extensive interpersonal abuse and bullying) but it's clear now that in my own way, I am reserved. I probably look fake, naïve, overly friendly off the bat, but it's not out of a desire to manipulate. It's because I want to keep people at a distance without hurting their feelings.  


I want people to feel welcome around me but at the same time, I can't feel safe being entirely authentic around them until they've shown me I can trust them.  


I wanted to ask anyone else here who deals with attachment issues how theirs manifests, and what you've been able to do to curb them? I want to hear about a whole range of experiences, so even if yours don't look like mine, I'd like to hear about it. How does it impact the formation of new relationships? Does it look different than how it impact existing/strong long term relationships?
