Why am I so emotionally attached to this girl whom I barely know?

Because you haven’t developed your emotions yet. You need to learn the truth of the phrase, “You can’t always get what you want.” The good thing is, you already recognize you have a problem.

You need to start recognizing when you are getting angry and / or defensive and learn to take a step back when this happens. Stop texting and cool off. Come back to it later when you aren’t so strung up. Eventually these sorts of situations will stop triggering you.

You will not be able to have a healthy relationship until you can learn to make peace with the fact that people are not going to read your mind or do your bidding. You want something from someone else, you need to a) communicate that need, b) ask if that person can help you, and c) be comfortable with hearing ‘no’.
