Whenever i still here thinking about my relationship, i get this feeling of just missing the person... I really start to get confused if it attachment or love.

 

Attachment is a kind of emotional disease; it is an obsessive emotional state, a type of addiction in which our peace and happiness depends on closeness or distance from the object or person to whom we are attached.In contrast, love is the freedom of giving without hoping for anything in exchange, because love is its only reward.

 

Love is generosity, while attachment is egoism. The ego lacks love, while love utterly lacks any ego. One who is attached is convinced that without the object of his attachment, he cannot be happy. He imposes upon himself the ridiculous belief that his happiness depends completely on the object of his attachment, while the truth is that happiness is possible only when we transcend all attachment.

 

How much of how your feelings is attachment or love?

Impossible to say, it's subjective to each individual and situation.
