Hello
I understand your concern. The fact that you're so much worried about how good a mother you would be is itself a proof of you being capable of being a good mother. It's very common to have such fears before your first child because you don't know how it's to be a mother before that, but you said you don't feel attached to people you may like to consult to see if there are any issues in your personality or you simply have attachment issues.
