Am I Being Too Clingy?

14 Comments

A text message on a mobile phone reads I miss you.
I text him a lot and he told me I was a little bit clingy.

Beautiful Justyne is dating a guy she's really fallen for. She says it seems perfect except for one problem - he told her he thinks she's a bit clingy.

Here's what she told us:

I've only been on a few dates with a guy I have met on Tinder. He is attractive, nice, and treats me like a princess.

He buys me anything I want, takes me to eat, he also drives to me for dates - it's not that far, almost an hour and a half away from each other.

When he's here it's the best time ever. We have a lot of fun together. It seems perfect - almost too perfect? We haven't really opened up to each other because he wants to take things slow.

I've never been In a relationship where we take things slow which is making me feel a little clingy. I text him that I miss him a lot and he told me that I was a little bit clingy? I don't understand how saying I miss you is clingy at all.

I have stopped telling him completely that I miss him but I want to tell him.Continue Reading

He Says He Wants to Take It Slow

Are we moving too fast?

Beautiful Ollie writes in to tell her story of her boyfriend who came on very strong in the beginning, but now wants to take a step back and slow things down.

Here's what she wrote:

I am a single mum of an 8 year old.

I met this guy for a coffee 2 months ago (we're both in our late 40's). We talked for hours, I never felt so comfortable and connected with someone, it was incredible.

The same afternoon, he came over to my place (I invited him) to show me some of his legal documents as he is in the middle of fighting custody of his children with his ex and I work in the legal area. He just needed to understand some forms.

While I was going through the documents, he played with my daughter. They had a blast together.

For the following days, he would text me first thing in the morning, ring me midday to see how my day was going, texting me before going to bed for a chat and goodnight. He popped by once or twice a week to say 'hi', play with my kid and have coffee with me.Continue Reading

Everything Was Going Great Until He Said Those 5 Shocking Words

39 Comments

A woman is upset after her boyfriend told her he wants to slow things down.
He said those 5 little words that no one wants to hear.

What do you do when your relationship seems to be perfect, then suddenly he says those words that you hoped to never hear again? Our letter this week comes from one of our beautiful readers who just experienced exactly that.

She has asked to remain anonymous, so I've decided to call her "Shocked", as I'm sure just about all of us can relate to how she's feeling.

Here's her story:

Hi Jane,

I hope you read this as I'm going to be as descriptive as possible.

I'm so confused.

I just met this guy about four months ago through some co-workers who are also his housemates. I am 23 and he is 29. I recently got out of a bad relationship which lasted a little over a year. He recently got out of a 3 year relationship a few months before he met me.

My co workers said he thought I was cute and everything but I had no interest. They left us alone and he asked to kiss me. I got so unusually nervous I didn't say anything an started laughing!

He kissed me anyway.

That night one thing led to another and well you know... afterwards I started laughing again and he asked why? We ended up talking about how weird it is to be with someone else after you're so used to someone else's body.

The next morning I wasn't sure what to do I thought it was a one time thing but we texted all day and I went over again we all hung out together and that's basically how it's been for the last three months!

I've met his parents. His sister and her husband. All of his friends.Continue Reading
