Would you rather be with someone who is clingy or someone who is distant? (Page 2)

[IlyaTheImpaler]

I am distant, so I prefer clingy, then the distance will be stabilized
If she's also distant then the distance will just grow further towards infinity🤷

[candycanehearts]

hehe clingy I think if theyre distant you would just feel insecure the whole time if they actually like you or not

[The_FallenOne]

Neither. I'd rather be alone if thoes are my options. It would better have someone somewherebin the middle
Someone not too clingy and someone distant enough to be their own person but not a stranger.

[Tiffstarr]

A person that is clingy you know what they’re doing. You trust them more than the person who is distant and you find it easier to connect when someone is distant they aren’t really good at communicating which makes the relationship hard.

[Johnnie1000]

I am not drawn to clingy women but it would be way better than a distant women that I have to keep guessing what she thinks, wants and doesn't like.

[Carley99]

Distant someone who respects space doesn't get mad if I'm online and didn't replied.

[azzntittiz]

Someone who understands space but isn't emotionally detached.

[DigitalArchon]

if its straight up between Clingy OR Distant, obviously Clingy. whats the point on being in a relationship with someone who is never really there.

[VaIiant]

Distant, I need my space. I dated someone clingy and it was awful, I felt like I was suffocating all the time and couldn’t be my own person.

[Hurlyburly]

I would prefer clingy, at least I can know this way that they truly care for me. Someone distant is way harder to read.

[lordpokerface]

Everyone voting 'clingy' probably haven't been with a clingy person. Believe me, it can be worse than someone who's distant.

[Bliss-taylor]

Nope my husband is practically attached for the past 7 years. I love it that way.

[lordpokerface]

@Bliss-taylor attached =/= clingy

Clingy would be someone who would get ticked off at you for taking 2 minutes longer to respond to their text, expect you to spend every living moment with them (even if you have something important to do) and get pissed at you for not doing so, someone who would be insecure about you spending time with someone else (regardless of gender).

That's not an exhaustive list, of course, but it is what one of my ex's did.

[Bliss-taylor]

Maybe there's different levels to clingy because I was called clingy when i was 16 by an ex because I wanted to see him practically everyday and I was always wanting to be touching. Oh, and I kissed too much. Lol But I never had a problem since him and I've changed nothing.

[lordpokerface]

@Bliss-taylor Everything is a matter of perspective, really. Something that's clingy for me, won't be clingy for you, just as it could/could not be clingy for your ex.

[Belgie]

Clingy or Distant, they would both end. At least Distant would be less exhausting and take no for an answer.

[ausmaster]

My girlfriend and I are clingy to eachother and its the best relationship I've ever had so definitely clingy.

[ShoeGirl24]

I was with a guy who was distant and I was always questioning if he actually liked me. I’d prefer clingy because I can get really insecure

[Burgerboy21]

If I have to pick strictly between the two, clingy for sure. It's at least nice to feel like I'm wanted, which is the exact opposite of what I'd feel with someone distant.

[esparc]

Both? I mean clingy is great, but sometimes I've got to have some alone time. I can be clingy, but I also get pretty distant occasionally.

[JulieXO]

I've been with someone who was clingy and it was terrible. I think I'd rather be with someone distant if I had to choose between the two.

[BeMeanToGirls]

Clingy girls cheat when you can't meet their unrealistic expectation of entertaining them 24 hours a day.

Distant girls cheat because, well, they're not close to you.

Women have worked hard to ruin dating in every possible sense.

[PeterB1517]

A pet is clingy, and though annoying at times, mostly it is nice to know you're liked/loved.

[halfbowsey]

Clingy any day. Being with someone distant isn't good for the mind - has she lost interest? is she cheating? etc
