Is it normal to feel so clingy? 😂😭

Question

I've been dating my (first) boyfriend for not even a whole month yet, but every time I'm not in class with him or I'm not spending some sort of time with or around him, I miss him so much it's wild. God, I'm not used to all this feelings crap yet. He's making me mushy 😂

Answer

So something similar happened to me last year, he was my first serious anything we weren't official bf/gf, he was fresh out of a 5yr stint and neither one of us wanted to rush anything. We were both pretty infatuated for about 6mon until stuff in his life got to be too much and he receded. I had come to depend on him for conversation, being there when things were wrong, or just a body in my bed (we never had sex in the 6mon just cuddling). But when we are slowing down it really really hurt and I realized how integral he had become to my life when I felt very alone (I also had just moved half way across the country at the time).

Basically I'm saying, it's ok & normal to be clingy but make sure it's there exists a healthy distance especially in the early months when the future is so uncertain.
