I love everyone around me and I have been very independent in many years of my life, but when there's people close to me a become dependent of them and as you know when they are not around I suffer so intense, how to find a balance to the point of people entering and living my life still not being so hurt and affected.

@tallOwl252 It is a very hard thing to do, to not get affected at all upon someone's coming and leaving, specially if we shared some happiness and sadness together, it is difficult to separate from each other then.

But I would think, we can still minimize the dependency, by looking to give more than we receive. This makes us capable of loving more people, even when someone leaves. We become more capable of sharing good relations, saving us from too much dependency on any one of them.

@tallOwl252 One thing to try is ot maybe sit down and think about the areas where you depend upon others. Finances? Education? Travel (even something like going to the grocery stores). You don't need to detail what areas you depend upon people here but it may help to identify specific areas and work on one or two in small steps to become less dependent on others.

Good luck!
