Relationship Advice from Dr. TRuth |
Dear Dr. TRuth,
I've been seeing my girlfriend for 2 years now,
and I think things are gradually getting worse.
I feel like I'm totally attached, and can't go a day
without seeing her. But she feels overwhelmed by
always being with me, and it is now becoming a real
problem.
I feel trapped, because I want to give her
space, but I'm so stuck in the routine of being
attached it is very hard to stop seeing her
everyday.
What should I do?
How do I get unattached?
I know I should get out there and do
things with my friends, but it is so much harder
said than done.

Dear Attached,
Nothing turns a girl off more than a clingy guy. It
makes them feel smothered and choked.
While I'm glad you are aware of your negative pattern, you will have
to take some extra special pains to break a very bad
habit.
It's kind of like giving up smoking. You just
have to not do it.
Try to spend time with others, get
some interests, concentrate on work/school and
basically get a life that doesn't always include her.
Develop the areas of yourself that are special and
which attracted her to you in the first place.
Here's a good start: try not calling her for three days. See
what happens!
Not only will you be proud of yourself,
but she will probably be wondering what happened to
you!
Sincerely, Dr. TRuth
