“So i am 20F. I have never been in a relationship but had crushes and talking stages that was bad. I was the one being emotional dependent and due to that i lost myself to anxiety. I attach to people fast. I want a healthy relationship away from manipulation, too much drama or suspicious. Due to my past experiences, i fear showing my real self, i fear if i express too much, if i be real and show my genuine interest, they would leave. I have been talking to this guy from hinge, its been a month but i feel he is like me calm and composed. Nothing is too fast paced here. We talk about random things. I find myself getting attached becuz u genuinely wait for his messages but i fear to show that. Should i be real or just keep myself away to protect myself.”

Nothing good comes out of dating apps my dear,
Just another sob story to add to your already long list.
Love yourself first, things will follow.

I think there's only one way to find that and for me that would be telling you to be honest with him and you can judge your next move from his reaction. Tell him how you feel and the attachment thing, it's a risk that for sure but I feel like it's better to have your answer now than later when you're in way too deep.
Good luck beautiful stranger!
