how did i turn out the way i am?

Here, I'm refering to how I've become so dependent on others in many ways, especially the part where i needed someone to be there for me emotionally and physically perhaps. Once i was a cheerful girl with nothing to care in the world. All this changed when i decided to explore this other side of the world i.e. to be in a relationship. That experiences have really mould me to the way i am in terms of this aspect. I can be independent in any way i want to, but now, i will always be dependent on others when it comes to emotions, someone to hug and to comfort me when i'm down. I've become a needy. I'm not proud of it but it can't be helped. I no longer have the confidence to stand alone. I guess that's y those who knows me, will know that my status have been "in a relationship" instead of "single" for the majority part of my life ever since that very faithful 12 Feb 99. Yet, i do not regret to have learned so much from all these but will the game of love destroy me? Guess we will never know till the day comes.
