Getting attached to someone without commitment

I'm emotionally dependent on a guy who doesn't want a relationship, causing me pain.

What I wish I knew
"That his lack of commitment would hurt me this much."
If I could tell you one thing
"Communicate openly with your partner about your needs and boundaries."
