6 Tips To Spot The Clingy Guys So You Can Steer Clear

There’s not much worse than clingy guys. It’s kind of frustrating because at first, they just seem like really big sweethearts who actually show their interest in us. But after a while, the initial appeal wears off as their “interest” deepens and deepens.

Then they’re just really annoying and nearly impossible to get rid of. And that’s why it’s just best to avoid getting serious with anyone who appears to be remotely clingy.

One thing guys don’t really have to worry about with clingy girls is how dangerous they are. Because they very rarely do anything besides blow up their phone. Clingy guys, on the other hand, can get scary because you never know how far they’ll go to get close to you.

# He's overly curious when you meet

It’s natural for a guy who thinks you’re attractive to be a little pushy. It’s not normal for a guy to be curious about every single thing about your life. If he seems overly interested now, he could be the clingy type. Watch out for him.

# He texts you right when you give him your number

Basically, if you hand him your number and turn around to a new text from him, he might be the clingy type. This could be cute or he could just be trying to make sure you have his number but it’s also indicative of a clingy guy.

# He doesn’t really stop texting you

And once he gets a reply, he just keeps going and going and going. You have to say goodbye multiple times and even then, he still pops up for some reason. This is a major sign that guy is clingy and you want to avoid him at all costs – unless you like being bothered all the time.

# He always reaches out first

Obviously, this means he’s clearly interested in you. But it could also be a sign he’s super clingy. By him always being the first to reach out, he’s not giving you time to miss him. He’s not even giving you time to be the first. And that means he’s texting or calling you way too frequently for it to be considered normal behavior.

# He sends multiple unanswered texts

This is the biggest red flag. If you meet a guy who starts doing this right off the bat, it’s best to avoid him unless you want the clingiest of guys with you. If he’s sending multiple unanswered texts, he’s desperate for your reply and that desperation will leak into any sort of relationship you have with him.

# He rushes things

Whether it’s the date or the physical stuff, he’s in a hurry. It’s like he wants to get to relationship mode ASAP. That’s a sign he could be very needy and clingy up front. Avoid guys who try to rush right through things.
