Ever had a guy that is super controlling and clingy? If you're not sure he is, then read this article to see if any of these symptoms apply. If they do, then maybe you should re-evaluate what he contributes to your life and communicate with him about how this is becoming a problem.

  1. He seems sweet at first, but next thing you know he’s trying to involve himself in every aspect of your life. He’s involved with your friend's life, he’s involved with your work, your school… you get the idea.
  2. He wants to come over every. Single. Day. Attention is great, but when he wants to be apart of your life 24/7 it becomes a problem.
  3. He starts to become clingy to your own friends too. I love a man that is best friends with my friends, but it’s an issue when he starts to even annoy your friends…
  4. He tells literally the whole world that you guys are official when you guys really are not.
  5. He starts to become controlling in very little things in your life that eventually becomes very apparent that he is controlling.
  6. You think he’s advising you, but really he’s just trying to manipulate the situation to his own benefit
  7. His friends start to “spy” on everything you do and update him like it’s their job.
  8. He checks up on you over text message to make sure you are not doing anything stupid without him being there to supervise.
  9. He plays the victim every time you mention that he is getting way too clingy.
  10. He guilt trips you to make himself feel better and seem like a hero to you... when you did not do anything wrong in the situation
  11. In the end, you need to acknowledge that he is the problem and that he needs to give you space to live. If he does not respect that, he does not respect you.

It's important to live a healthy relationship with the man you are seeing or in a relationship with. If any of his actions do bring you negativity in your life, make sure to communicate those concerns with him and vocalize your concerns. If it continues to happen, girl drop him you can do much much better!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
