How can I stop myself from being clingy?

I have a boyfriend and I lost my virginity to him… I know naturally you get more attached to someone once you have sex with them, especially if you lose your virginity to them… but I don’t want to feel like this.

When he’s gone, even for 5 minutes, I miss him so much..I haven’t seen him for 3 days and it’s driving me crazy. I hate it! I want to WANT time away from him, you know? I’m worried I’m going to end up smothering him.. Can someone please help me?

Thanks.

I don’t know how this feels for you but I’ll try my best to answer this.

Heaven gave the best advice, your mind is constantly thinking about him. What do you do? Occupy it with something else, be it cooking, cleaning, playing video games, hanging out with your friends. chatting with people online etc…

Although, I’m sure that your boyfriend probably feels equally the same so it’s not something to worry about. The key thing is to keep your mind occupied with just about anything to keep you distracted from him. Or as Heaven suggested, accept it and try to keep it out from his watchful eye. I’m a little skeptical to suggest this but maybe, instead of pushing away your feelings, try to let them fluctuate.

Your emotions aren’t meant to be constricted, let them go from time to time. Write down how he makes you feel, your thoughts, try your best to capture your emotions, not just with writing. You can take pictures, paint, anything really, just let your feelings ‘’go’’ from time to time. Constricting how you feel can make things seem very stressful for you. Take a deep breathe, relax, and then try to express yourself.

Hope this works for you! Best of luck! :)

try to psychologically change your ways of thinking; next time a clingy-provoking thought comes into your head, you must consciously say to yourself “ I will not allow myself to think these types of thoughts”, as well as keeping yourself occupied, like cooking. It sounds weird, but I did it when I tried to get over this guy I had a crush on and it worked, (I was only in 7th grade too)…trust me, you can do it.

Also, let’s say if he tells you he’s going to have a night out with the boys, tell him that you’re happy for him and that you hope he has a good time. And keep it at that- you have to act as though nothing fazes you in times like that, even if you are worried that one of them might want to go strippers for a laugh..I’m sure he wouldn’t do anything to betray your trust ;)

lol my boyfriend gets sooo pissed that im clingy. but at the end of the day, I think he’s quite happy, he always got a person to talk to if everything possible goes wrong, but I do still give him breaks, by drawing and keeping myself busy with arts and crafts. and crap like that.

Answer #4

Moe Moe Moe…do you have a hobby? My husband and I spend every waking minute together…literally. We are away from each other for maybe an hour a day. Thus we are rather attached :) Back in the day when we had to be apart, I just kept suuuper busy, to the point that I might miss his calls. I had a job, so I’d try to work or do school stuff to pass the time. It’s also a great way to spend time with friends so they can distract you. Other than that, you can just accept the clinginess and don’t let him see it. Eventually he’ll do something to annoy you and you’ll love that time apart…haha.
