It's called victim behavior. Basically, the only way a "victim" feels lovable is by being helpless and broken. So, they reveal things that are actually inappropriately intense too soon in order to relay a message of "See, I'm fukked up, so you need to love me." It's actually quite common in people who were mistreated (in various ways) as children. Don't fault them, it's very much a subconcious choice. You could actually be flattered because they are actually testing their trust in you in a way. Show them how much you appreciate them in other ways and they won't feel the need to act out in this way with you.
Sorry, I always get so psychological, but I am fascinated by human behavior.
