How do I stop smothering my boyfriend?

You have to stop smothering him, because as weird as it sounds, you are pushing him away.

I did this to like 4 different girls and they dumped me and it took me most of my 20's to understand what I was doing.

The tables have turned and my last two girlfriends smothered me.

You MUST give him space! Do NOT be available 100% of the time. You need to hang with your girlfriends. Be busy and have hobbies! You will be amazed at how he will want to spend more time with you when you make yourself a rare commodity!

You also have to emotionally prepare yourself to be OK if things don't work out with him. Don't let yourself be so attached until one day he proposes!

I currently live in CT as well and I am from New York, plus I use to date a chick in New York while I live in CT. She as well was almost like my boxers, she was so clingy. Listen, men don't want that, we hate to argue and we hate confrontation with women. Speaking for me as a man, in general when a man is upset there is nothing left to say but go to blows, obviously no real man will put his hands on a woman, so this drives a wedge in any relationship. The nagg, the constant calls and the constant harrasment, sometimes it's good if you make him realize that you are worth his time and attention and not force that concept on him. Most women feel that men dont show them enough attention, well it's not that we don't, it's just men can never show women enough attention due to your emotional stages. We will never understand you and untill you can figure that out, give us our space and learn to work within certain boundaries you will never be happy. Remember certain things you think about on a daily basis most men will never think about. So take your woman panties off and put on some man boxers and look at from a male's perspective and see what you come up with. Then you will know the right distance, the right amount of clingyness as you so state will work for your relationship. The worst thing you can do is expect the world from any man, we may promise it but sometimes we loose track on delivery

Smothering Him

Well first you need to ask him straight up if you are "smothering him" tell him that you aren't meaning to smother him you just love him a lot. Let him hang out with his friends and have a little space but don't completely go away or it will backfire on you. Just tell him you don't mean to smother him and back off a little he knows how much you love him.

He's not your husband! Real love takes two people. You want to receive what you give and you. Consider this, maybe he ain't the guy for you. My grandmother says one to wash, one to spare, one to wear. A young woman, not in a serious relationship (not engaged) should have three guys (friends) to spend time with. This way, you can never smother, or get smothered.

I am going to be honest with you it is great how you feel about him. The truth is though if you really love him just stop all of it. If you guys are meant to be together it will happen if not it won't. Part of loving someone is letting them go and letting them be free. I know it sounds hard but that is really loving someone and he loves you he will come back.

Love is like sand. If you hold on to it too tightly, it will slip thru your fingers. But if you hodl onto it gently, it will stay.

Give him some space, he obviously needs it. He'll come back if you leave him alone.

I would honestly want a girlfriend like you :) . for your boyfriend give it time. if you really care and love him and give him some space. call him and text and him every now and then

ur bf is a jerk..just go hang out with guys and i promise u can find someone better..hes a douch best of luck u deserve better

Stop caring. Do what you feel and remember he already knows that you love him.
