How do I not get attached to my girlfriend and let fear of loss guide my decisions, and instead have self respect and live my life how I truly want to?
This might just be the hardest thing to do ever.
I just knew that I had women waiting in line.

Know that you'll survive without her. Don't be dependent thats whack.

Getting attached isnt problem. Treating your gf right isnt problem.
Only problem is when you put her as your priority number one. You have to be always number 1 priority. She can come second. You can never love her unconditionally.
And if she is the one, she wont leave you for petty shit. Dont be afraid of treating her as person. She isnt made from sugar.

Self confidence, time, and experience. You will lose your girlfriend at some point. Maybe because of something you did, maybe not. You will feel shitty for a while, but then life will get good again. Perhaps better than before.

Just think about everything in a harshly logical way that when you make a decision about your relationship it will always benefit you

you need balance. Do not get comfortable in the relationship, this will cause you to take her for granted and make you stop putting effort in keeping her interested. Also avoid getting TOO uncomfortable like you are now, don't control her, but do your best to trust her unless she gives you a reason otherwise. Finding this balance is very difficult and takes time but just keep it in mind.

Pretty much this. You have to become independent and your emotional wellbeing can't be reliant on anyone but yourself, it takes willpower. You have to accept the outcome of losing this person, and know that there can still be a future for yourself with other women.
