I've grown independent from my peers. I've never been one to get involved with outside affairs, drama, or negetive influences. It's a double-edged sword. I've developed pride in my uniqueness, and therefore drew the line between me and others. I do have a few good friends, but not a whole lot.

 

Now, I love to feel accepted. I've been so distant my entire life, and it feels good to know that there are people out there who care about me. Which brings me to the point, I want to start a relationship with this girl, I like her, almost positive she likes me, but she is dependent and I am very independent. I don't accept help that readily, and I feel like if I start a relationship, it won't get anywhere because of my independence. I don't like to give people a lot of attention because it tires me out.

 

I'm afraid that my independence will make her feel ignored and ruin the relationship. It's not that I ignore her, I'm afraid I can't deliver her the desired amount of attention.

 

Any ideas on how to help me get over this?

Yosef, what about you letting this girl think for herself. Start with I really like you. If she really likes you back, ask her for a date.

 

If you still like each other after three dates, ask her if she feels like she's getting enough attention. Either way, you asked to hear what she thinks.

 

Then you can tell her what you told us here, I worry if I'm giving you enough attention. Will you let me know how I'm doing later?

 

See what happens. No sense having the whole relationship in your head though!
