i think i get too clingy and idk what to do about it

so ive been going out with this guy for about two months now. he's nice and really likes me and is very caring but he isn't really the affectionate type. which is fine, we're all different people with different ways and i dont want to be too much on him and force him into being a certain way just for my satisfaction but sometimes i just really crave his affection and end up acting clingy. we'd cuddle after sex and that's about all the affection i get. i try to make conscious efforts not to behave clingy but sometimes its just so hard like im literally in tears right now while typing this. ive tried having this conversation with him once but idk, i feel weird being vocal and demanding about such things. also, he's never had a girlfriend before me, just casual flings, so maybe he's just not sure how to deal with this entire thing?
