When I think about it, there is not ONE person in my life I'm attached to. I can pretty much live on my own. But does that mean I'm crazy, dysfunctional, or strange? I can talk to pretty much EVERYBODY, but I don't get attached and I find myself thinking that I can 'live without them.'

Nope. Just means you're independent and you enjoy your space.

I'm somewhat sort of like that... except when I was attached to my girlfriend (now my ex... )

... so yeah. I'm attached to my dog. Does that count?

Oh, okay. ^_^ I'm not even attached to my closest friend of 7 years. O_o
I don't know about dogs, lol. ^_^ It's okay to be attached to a beloved pet, I believe.

Actually that is a good place, first you can live on your own if you want, but people should all get to that place, and then find the person they want to be with, not find a dependent relationship

No your not crazy, dysfunctional, or strange its just how some people are I used to be the same till I hit the age of 17/18,all myfamily moved to ireland I never called never wrote just didn't need to was happy by myself,loved being on myown doing myown things,I had a lot of friends and out of them all just one that I was attached to. Don't think your crazy dysfunction or strange your just you

I think its very healthy to be self sufficient to a point. As long as you enjoy the ones you like, when you do see them.

Wrong?? I'd say detachment is a godsend. I'm always like this in the beginning--cool, calm, collected.

Wish I'd stay that way ::grumble::
