Your friend is just a very emotional and sensitive person. It's part of his personality, and nothing you or anyone can do will change the way he feels inside. However, you can help him change the way he ACTS. But keep in mind, people will only their behavior if they really want to, or feel the need to. So you will have to convince him that some of his behavior may end up causing him to be hurt. His note to his girlfriend, for example... acting too clingy or desperate may make his girlfriend uncomfortable, and he may lose her because of it. Tell him this in the nicest way possible, and suggest some other ways he can act. You're a good friend to want to help him. But remember that many lessons in life have to be learned the hard way. It may take an unfortunate event (such as losing his girlfriend) to make him realize that he need to change the way he acts.

You definitly have to talk to him about that. Say that your a girl & you would know best. Tell him that what he wrote in that girls year book freaks girls out. Inform him like a good friend what he is doing and how he should improve himself. Don't be harsh though, make it like constructive critism. And don't pile it all in on one conversation. slowly mention all the things hes doing over a weeks time. And definintly dont call him sensitive. Guys hate that. Just tell him he's too serious and clingy. But say your acting clingy and serious, not you are clingy and serious.
