I'm having the same issue, but mine is cyclical. I know my problem is a deep, DEEP rooted fear of rejection. I feel as if I will literally die if a man rejects me, so I don't try. Yes, it's an irrational fear, but one I am working on...

Also, someone said not to be needy. It's actually ok to be needy, really. It's nice to need someone around. Being vulnerable is something we have to risk to allow someone to come in and take care of us and be there for us. But you don't want to be clingy. There is a difference.

Clingy means you are afraid to be without that person. Clingy screams of insecurity. Neediness whispers vulnerability...
