Question Posted Saturday September 6 2014, 5:36 pm
I don't know what it is recently. But I have turned slightly clingy towards my boyfriend. Like I want him to text me throughout the day (he's not a big texter) and I hate when we don't talk at night.
I'm 23 and feel so childish! We are long distance and had some trust issues but never with any kind of cheating or anything like that. It's just hard to feel like he's interested when I haven't seen him in a while. But we've been together 5 years, so I should be used to that. We are almost able to not be long distance again. But everything has been going well, yet I can't stop picking. I hate it! He deserves to be happy and not have me pick when he can't talk! I have never been like this before and would not like if he was acting the way I do sometimes. He just feels like he's not as interested.
So I know I basically just told all of you my insecurities and how I'm the bad guy, but I am just wondering if anyone has any tips on how to relax. I really love him and don't want to fight with him. I'm busy most of the time but when I have a free moment I want it to be spent talking to him.

It is very hard to maintain relationships such as these but the best you can really do is talk to him about these insecurities you have so he can understand why you act the way you do and try as best as you can to manage them. Being busy most of the time it is understandable that you would want to spend the time you do have talking to him, again this is something you should talk to and tell him so he understands further about the why you are acting the way you are. For the most part I think he would understand. Trying to keep yourself occupied either with work or even with friends and going out and such will help you try keep your mind occupied and give you both breathing space so that neither of you feel clingy.
