Eggplant Posted July 14, 2013 Posted July 14, 2013 Clinginess happens in both men and women, and it has to do with insecurity. I get insecure like that too sometimes, but my personal reaction to that feeling is to pull away instead of cling.
Seductive Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 Rough childhoods where the emotional need for being nurtured wasn't satisfied History of verbal abuse/put-downs Low self-esteem Fear that the other person doesn't like them Needing reassurance
JourneyLady Posted July 15, 2013 Posted July 15, 2013 Being divorced from a cheater. Wanting more intimacy and contact than the guy wants. (ie. if he wants to see her only every two weeks and she wants to see him twice a week, he will call her "clingy". The rule seems to be that anytime you are with someone who wants to see or contact you more than you want to see or contact them, you give them the "clingy" label. - I got it once merely because in an LDR, I wanted to talk in video, not through text chat.)
