Don't get me wrong I love my family and everyone, but i think i am having mental issues about letting other people in to my life and loving them. For example i was with my ex for like ages and after he announced it was over, i really couldn't care less. Its like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders, I get this when i start a new relationship, all the cons come in to mind and i panic if i have to see them, and Its an obsticle I cannot seem to over come... Does that make any sense? :/

You may be going through a bout of depression. Go to the student services office or medical office and get an appointment to see someone about this. The symptoms seem classical.
