I'm afraid of becoming attached to Plush

Discussion

Hi, I wish this post isn't offensive to plush lovers.

I recently bought a plush rabbit. I sleep with it every night. It's comforting to have it nearby, and it feels nice to touch.

But I'm afraid of becoming attached to things. No matter how much I come to love something, it becomes linked to memories and scares me, so I don't have anything that I've owned for more than five years. I throw everything away.

So when I bought this rabbit, I decided from the beginning not to name it, and I decided not to become attached to it so that I could throw it away at any time.
but it's been almost a month since I bought it, and whenever I touch this rabbit, it feels so good, and it calms my mind. That's what scares me. I'm scared that I'm starting to get attached to it.

I know I'm overthinking things. How can I just honestly like this?
