Does This Make Me Clingy? Revealing What Our Attachment Styles Say About Us!

[@nonyab916]

“Not needing another person” isn’t healthy either. Extreme independence is just as unhealthy as being clingy. Humans were created to be interdependent.

[@munab3666]

I identify with Jeannie SO much with what she says about her independence but I'm fully aware, at least recently, that it's not that healthy

[@katlegoserai4935]

True, and I wasn't aware that it was unhealthy until my bf brought it up

[@nonyab916]

I’ve been there too. A lot of women grow up being told we need to be independent, take care of ourselves, and not rely on anybody only to end up in relationships with men who want to feel needed and grow up being told to take care of their woman. There are songs marketed to women about being independent. It’s celebrated…until it’s not. Then it’s a problem. And a lot of us are so independent because we HAD to be. I understand now though. We have to balance being able to take care of ourselves with allowing people to be there for us

[@kattodoggo3868]

Because we should be like this. I love you. I don't need you but I want you. That's healthy to me.

[@rrtlife2167]

Snoring isn't normal. He should get a sleep study test done. Sounds like he may benefit from a CPAP device.

[@morganjames4176]

@@rrtlife2167 it's a light snore, which I believe is fairly common (at least in my circle), but thank you for the insight

[@rrtlife2167]

When there is a snore, it means there is either a blockage or narrowing in the airway. The tongue can also cause a snore. That can cause your oxygen to drop when sleeping. I'm graduating as a respiratory therapist in 2 months and worked in the sleep lab. I thought it was normal also until I had clinics in the sleep lab. Even a light snore can cause oxygen levels to drop. Some have mild to severe cases but you will not know for sure until you get a test. The home tests are less costly and some insurances cover it. Just spreading the knowledge.

[@morganjames4176]

I think we're not talking about how some of these conversations could be hard for Adrienne knowing that she wanted to get pregnant all along and jeanie who didnt, got pregnant. Not that jeanie is wrong for talking about her pregnancy or anything but sometimes I feel like every video I watch is about baby j and what jeanie would do and I think I applaud Adrienne for how strong she is and how happy she is for jeanie. I pray she gets what she wants soon. Jeanie's pregnancy is very beautiful news and I'm glad they're celebrating it.

[@amethystwolf24572]

Physical touch is a love language for both me and my partner. We are that "reach a toe out to touch while sleeping" type. We crave cuddles, back rubs, hugs, etc. Because we match in that way, we work really well. We're also pretty clingy emotionally too, but again, it works for us. It used to drive him crazy when I would text him if he was late coming home - he'd say things like "I said I'm on my way, traffic was bad" or he stopped at the store or whatever. I did it cause I missed him. Now, its reversed, and I love teasing him and reminding him that he couldn't understand why I did it, lol. That doesn't mean we don't have alone time - we both get plenty of that, we spend time doing our own things at home almost every day, we even get a chance to be completely away from each other (depending on work schedules) throughout the week.

[@jazminereed-clark9316]

To echo the comments, I LOVE these girl chats. I had stopped watching when everyone was Zooming in. This feels so personal and like I'm at happy hour with them. AND I think there was some training, because no one is talking over people, and they're all intentional about each person answering the question. The Real is back!

[@maame6224]

Great topic ladies, loving this new season! Keep them coming!😍😍

[@MajesticMyronn]

Ok… I’m gonna go somewhere different with this but I think there’s a difference in showcasing interest and taking a person serious when you like them versus completely being a obsessive and can’t take no for a answer ! I think there are people that like put all their energy into someone and then when they notice they may be coming off strong… they back off a little bit but still show that they are interested bit by bit & I like that ! It’s the people that don’t know they’re overbearing and overwhelm you to the point where they start asking where we’re you and wondering like “ why haven’t you texted me 45 mins ago “ like stage 5 clingers are too much for me lol I’m ok with those who can take social cues and common sense… but the people that are completely oblivious and can’t pick up on whether or not someone is uncomfortable with said clingy actions!

[@alexpress5375]

I can agree with that but I also think real conversation can help that situation. Sometimes ppl react or do things based on their past relationship (not saying it's right) but it does happen. If a guy is calling you too much it could be because he is clingy or it could be because that was the expectation/requirement of his last relationship. Just saying...have a conversation and see if certain behaviors change.

as an only child and an introvert, i’m not used to being around people and talking to people everyday. so when i met my boyfriend, it was draining at first to talk to one person consistently everyday, which is why I wasn’t really open to dating in the first place. I love being alone, and I love being quiet and keeping to myself. My boyfriend is the opposite, grew up as the youngest of 4 kids and has a lot of cousins. He would call me constantly throughout the day (still does) but I realized that that is his love language. We’re long distance and we don’t get to see each other as often as we’d like. His love language is physical touch and quality time, he shows it by talking on the phone with me all day because we can’t physically be in each other’s presence. I found it kind of clingy at first, but now I can’t fall asleep at night without hearing him snore on the phone.

I'm not a clingy person and I don't like to deal with a clingy person. And that part about a person checking in with their spouse every hour on the hour or more is irritating .
