why do cats follow me everywhere ?

Rebecca • Wife💍 Harrisons mommy 🥰 TTC baby #2
I have this problem... well not a problem because I love it! But sometimes it's annoying especially when I'm in a rush. Cats always follow me. They follow me home, they follow me to my bus stop, they sit on my porch and look in my windows. It's getting really weird! It started a few years ago. It's not the same cat , every cat that crosses my path follows me. Just this morning I was walking to my bus stop and this cat followed me the whole time, rubbing in front of my legs nearly tripping me. It stayed with me at the bus stop rubbing against me and then when my bus came it darted back across the road right in front of the bus and nearly got hit. I've seen these cats before and they have owners, none of them are stray. Why do cats do this ! They don't do it to my boyfriend.
