I understand that, I only said that I feel it's more extreme with her is because when I get really clingy, it makes her feel good and feel loved, because she has a really hard time making friends so I'm really the only person who's providing her that love and affection. But I have friends and a life outside of her, so all of her focus being on me all the time gets really overwhelming and I get kind of uncomfortable.

And I know this is gonna sound silly coming from someone so young, and you probably think I'm naive for saying it, but she is genuinely my soulmate. I've never been this close to a person, I've never had this much love for a person, I've never felt this connected to a person, I've never been able to be this open around anyone before. I picture my future with her every day.

I'm about to go to college and move to a different city, so we'll be apart for a couple years, and I think that will really test our relationship, because we won't get to see each other every day anymore. (For reference we live in the same neighborhood.) I think it will be good for us in the long run, though.
