writes:I have this boyfriend, that I've been going out with for almost a year. I love him so much, I really do. He's everything to me, but sometimes he gets on my nerves and I have no reason. I think sometimes he's maybe too clingy, he texts or calls me right when he wakes up. He texts me the whole day if I don't see him at all. And sometimes he tells me the most useless information like, "I'm going to eat out." But when we're finally together and get to see each other, it's totally different. We feel good. So, what's wrong? Why am I irritated? Do I really love him? Or do I need space.

 I think you see your b/f as being too needy, or too clingy - the one thing most men don't like about women, we too don't really like for a man to be that clingy. It makes them seem weak in our eyes. He probably thinks this is what women want because he's heard so much about how women don't like being ignored, don't like it when their man doesn't call so he's going a bit overboard. I do think you love him because when you're together it doesn't seem to be so much of a problem. If you try to be unavailable for his constant attention, it'll probably just make him worse. Maybe try talking to him about it first and see if that helps.

But you may want to be cautious of this type of clingy, co-dependant person. When you do want to break up, he may fly off the handle and harass you. I have experience with that myself. Just have a talk to him and say that you like being together, but him texting you all day and telling you everything he does gets annoying. You could even lie and say that your text messaging bill is way too high, and that you're limited to a certain number of texts a month.
