To start dealing with your clingy lover, you need to first understand why is she acting like that. Because what you see as “needy” could be her way of expressing what she needs from you. If she keeps asking you to do something repeatedly or starts to act in a certain way, she lacks the attention or affection from you. This is why you need to think if you’re spending less time with her or showing the same amount of affection as you did at the beginning of your relationship. If so, take subtle actions and show her some love and affection.
