Are You Too Clingy?

Now this article isn't aimed toward just women. It's aimed at the men as well. Many relationship disasters are due either the man or the woman being too clingy. We may need a partner in life but we also need our OWN time as well. Let's get started.

Phone Calls And Texting

How often to you call or text your girlfriend or boyfriend? When you do call or text them, what do you say? Now there's nothing wrong with a little "I love you" text but don't over do it. Do you ask her or him questions like, "Where are you?". "What are you doing?" "When will you be back here?". Your man or your woman does not like to be rushed or hurried. They don't want to feel pressured into cutting short whatever they're doing to come and spend time with you. Your man or lady NEEDS some alone time and time with their friends and family from time to time. Keep a daily phone call and/or text limit to one or two a day. One to confirm dinner plans for the night and one to tell him or her how your day was and ask how their day was. That's it. Any more phone calls than that is overkill in most cases.

Joint Email Accounts

If you want to have an email account like Joe_and_Linda@xxx.com or Cindy_and_Mark@gmail.com that sends a clear message to your new lady or man that you don't trust them. I do agree that there are plenty of people (mostly men) who abuse their Internet privacy. But doing this in the beginning of a relationship will let your man or woman know that they can expect to have zero privacy now and in the future.

No Girl Or Guys Nights Out

Ladies, your man need a poker night with the guys. Guys, your lady needs a girl's night out occasionally. I'm not condoning going out with friends and such every weekend and neglecting time with your lady or man. It's important for each person to have time away from their partner. Both of you need this.

That's about it. I'm not saying that your new relationship will blossom and the two of you will get married, have a family, a dog, a cat, and a goldfish if you adhere to this advice. However, If you do follow these rules, you will never be accused to being "too clingy". Good luck.
