itll be alright promise (: i have the same problem of pushing people away, & the only way to fix it is figure why youre doing it (gotta go deep here) for me i realized it was because i was never close with my parents or really anyone growing up, & so the idea of being close to people scared me & completely freaked me out & made me want to run, i liked feeling alone in a way, until i got super lonely, i also just didnt like the commitment of having to be close to someone, but once i realized that, it was easier to force myself not to run or push people out, even if it meant sometimes biting my tongue & holding back, or even apologizing (super big step for me) it takes time, but it can be done! just keep moving forward & you can do it (:
