Tbh in my experience if you don’t want a clingy partner you just don’t want your partner. I’m a clingy person but when someone I’m only partly interested in is clingy, and I don’t like it, it just means I don’t really like them that much. Could just be me tho.

I’m the same way!! My ex was so clingy and needed my time and attention all the time and it was so draining on me, especially considering I’m already a mentally ill introvert. He could not comprehend having a life outside of me and it became way too much so eventually I had to break up with him

I don’t disagree that ppl need to a life, I think as long as u can say that like hey im not feeling 100% today, ill text u tn or tmm then you’re good money

yeah that could also be the case too tbh. there’s def been times where i wished someone i was rlly into was more clingy or “active” and there’s been times where someone i was too clingy and it pushed me away. i think it rlly does varies case by case but overall im not a naturally clingy person at the end of the day tbh but i totes get where ur coming from

He also had no friends or therapist or anyone at all outside of me so all of his problems were unloaded onto me and it killed me. He would also talk about his ex every day when we were together

Bro he was so obsessed with his ex that he would straight up sob over that man on the daily and WOULD TELL ME ABKUT IT!!! I literally had to sit him down and ban him from talking about his ex in my presence. And they were barely even exes, they just fucked a few times and were never officially together, my boyfriend was just literally obsessed with that man (who was a lot older than him). Super wild to think about in hindsight. I have not dated since
