Alright so i have been going out with this guy for about 3 months, we dated 2 other times. We've known each other for a while && all that. He's sort of the clingy type and lowself esteem. I have a feeling that if him & i did have sex, he would get wayy too attached and clingy. He is attached already, but not that bad. Hes really amazing, but its like he thinks me and him have to hang out everyday.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Sabine answered Friday January 26 2007, 6:49 pm: Sorry, but there's a reason you two have already broken up twice. You are not compatible until he makes progress with is clingy/needy issues. He needs to understand boundaries and he'll probably learn that by seeing a pattern of when people start to get irritated with him. If he keeps going back to you and you keep taking him back, he's not going to learn what's reasonable and what's not. I think you should back off, not escalate the issue with sex.

But there's no one forcing you two to have sex and so if you decide to, do it at your own will.
You need to tell him straight out right now that if he wants the relationship to work, there's still going to have to be some private space. And jokingly add that time apart makes romance stronger. [ ductape_n_roses's advice column | Ask ductape_n_roses A Question ]
