clingy boyfriend

I definitely can relate to your situation entirely, my boyfriend is also the clingy type and he knows it. I've talked to him about it like I need my space and don't jump to conclusions, sometimes I don't text back right away and he just automatically assumes I'm mad or upset or something and it's so irritating right? So I'm just tell him don't assume anything and I tell him why I get upset and that I don't need to see or talk to him everyday. You need to tell him that you need your independence and your own social life, I'm sure he has his own friends and you have your own friends. But if it doesn't get any better you know, sometimes it's better to cut your losses, I know I've thought about it a lot of times. What's keeping me sane at the moment is that we go to different colleges across the country so definitely I have some space which is nice. But seriously, create boundaries tell him how annoying and frustrating it is that he needs to know where you are at all times and just because you want a few days to yourself doesn't mean you don't care about him or love him. I wish you the best. Have a good one.

You need your space. Clingy guys are some of the worst. Being clingy isn't healthy in a relationship and can ultimately ruin it. You need a caring boyfriend who can be independent...not someone to latch onto you like a child that needs reassurance. I say that you should confront him. Let him know how you feel. If he doesn't seem to make any changes... I would seriously think about moving on. I wish you the best of luck!

I am rather clingy myself, and I think it's something that he needs to be aware of and be able to work on himself. What really gave me some perspective was when my girl told me that she was feeling smothered and that, when she felt smothered, she tended to push me away more to try and get that space. Perhaps you should talk with him and let him know how it makes you feel and make your feelings for him clear. It will probably result in tears and be rather emotional, but hopefully it will get things sorted. In saying that, try and be understanding with him and see where he's coming from as well. If he's afraid you'll leave him, there's a reason for it, even if it's one that has nothing to do with you such as an ex that things didn't go so well with. If it continues, though, I think you should evaluate the relationship and see if the rest of the relationship is worth dealing with the clingy aspect of things, you shouldn't be unhappy in a relationship. I hope this helps!

You can't hold his hand, you have to get real with him. Step up, let him know you don't need two vaginas, you're fine if he chooses to act more like a man anytime soon. because if he doesn't, you're going to find a man who does.

If he cries, walk out on him.

You never know, he could be a serial killer. That's the only time guys act like that, is if he actually pretends you're his mom and whenever you leave he feels like an abandoned baby. You better get outta there.
