The Right Person Will Love Your Clingy Side

The right person will appreciate the fact that you speak with authenticity, that you spill your secrets without second thought, that you wear your heart on your sleeve for the whole world to see. They will love how open and honest you are, how you refuse to send mixed signals because you don’t have the time or energy to waste on pointless games.

In the end, the little things that cause some partners to call you clingy are the same things that are going to cause your forever person to call you a good partner.

The right person will be happy that you’re checking in on them throughout the day, that you send double texts and call them to hear their voice. They won’t be turned off or scared away by the fact that you want to spend as much time with them as possible because they’ll feel exactly the same way. They’ll want to get to know you on an even deeper level.

The right person will love the sides of you that others call clingy because it’s proof that you care about them, that you value their time and enjoy their attention. After all, most of the behaviors that people have called clingy aren’t clingy at all. They’re simply signs that you care – and some people refuse to show emotion at all.  

The right person will want to hear what you have to say. They won’t want you to stuff your emotions down your chest and pretend everything is fine when that isn’t the case. They’ll want you to speak from the heart, whether that means saying those three little words to them or explaining why you’re upset with them. Either way, they are going to be relieved that you trust them enough to be straightforward with them. It’s better than sweeping things under the rug and letting them snowball, letting miscommunication tear you apart.

The right person will love the fact that you love loudly.

They will feel spoiled whenever you do the ‘clingy’ things that people you’ve dated in the past have complained about — like meeting them for their lunch break or leaving little notes around the house or clearing your schedule so you can spend weekends together. The things others whined about, this person will enjoy.

The right person is going to be just as clingy as you are. They are going to send you cutesy texts throughout the day and tell you how much they love you as often as they get the chance. They are going to smother you with affection because they never want you to doubt how much you mean to them. They want you to know that you’re the only one for them, the one who they want to spend the rest of their life alongside.

The right person will love your clingy side because you were never really clingy in the first place. You were simply directing your love toward the wrong humans. And once you find the person who fits you, they’ll never make you feel clingy again.
