Conquering social neediness?
Does anyone know some good techniques to stop being socially needy. I find myself instantly responding to all text messages and responses, have a hard time understanding that people can be 'busy' and am overall just a pest. Anything I can do to calm down and let the chips fall where they may?

I agree with the first poster. Ditch the technology for a day and go out and enjoy nature in the company of some friends or family. If people are busy go by yourself to a park and take a hike or something. Look around and relax.
I think that technology is causing the social neediness simply because a text or phone conversation isn't enough interaction. Just going to the mall and being around a lot of people is helpful because it keeps your mind busy and you don't feel so alone.

dont use your phone and computer for a day or a week, and then youll find something else to do instead?
