Crazy Rabbit Lady said some really good things that i agree with (badly worded sentence, sorry. i'm stupid today). the attachment to certain people sounds like a BPD symptom that i've seen a lot of before. it can be helpful to get a good therapist with whom you can work on your attachment difficulties with. usually the people you attach to will remind you in some ways of people from past years, and maybe you attach to those parts of new people in order to help yourself (on an unconscious level) have a different experience. i'm not explaining well. for example, if you felt hurt or abandoned by someone as a child, and then you meet someone who, on some level, reminds you of this past person, you might unconsciously be trying to get a different experience of the past person in this "new" person so you'll feel better about it.
that might not be what's going on for you at all! it's just i've seen it happen before, a lot. and i've experienced that too. it takes some work but it can get better. xxx
