First find out his personality type. MBTI will give you a rough guide to his cognitive stack.
Each type of man moves differently. If I was to guess..🤔you sound like a XxFx personality type and he sounds like some type of xxTx personality trait. Mmm if I was to go further I'd say he's probably introverted? IxTx. 🤔by the fact that you feel his attention is more on his own stuff gives me this impression.
Also you mentioned you were scared how he would respond 🤔which makes me feel as though you're Introverted yourself. IxFx.
If I knew nothing else I'd say your relationships revolve around respecting eachothers boundaries and personal space. He loves your youthful free spirit and you love his deep intelligence and independence which gives him confidence. Admirable isn't he?
The issues here are always going to be centred around communication. One of you tend to not lean towards emotional communication (him). The other is nervous of saying the wrong thing, so ignores their own emotional needs and communicating those needs (you).
If you keep this in long enough, eventually you'll explode and say something you really didn't mean 😐.
You strike me as someone who Probably hide a great deal about your inner world as well in order to not come across as weird. Your personality type will end up feeling oppressed if this keeps up.
The solution is simple:🎶🪘🪘
To communicate your emotional needs in a cause and effect way.
I. e. "My Love, when you don't do [blank], the resulting behaviour in me is [blank]".
Take as much emotional content out of the communication and be very cause and effect orientated and he should adjust his behaviour to give you what you need. Remember, you're communicating to him in his love language so take emotions out of it and be cause and effect orientated!
Introverted thinkers like your partner are intelligent people and often move from goal to goal without realising that some goals are never completed and need constant maintenance (relationships). Humans aren't robots that you execute a command and it will fulfill that command until the end of time, loyally lol anyway, I hope i helped.
Kind regards,

Some people are more needy then others. What you need is communication and to express what you want. As well as be able to give in return.
Sometimes people aren’t compatible. Because more needy people. Also need someone whose more on the needy side.
But. He can’t read your mind.
Do the reverse Psychology something being cold or being not available at times he wanted to see you. Often men are taking some advance moves since they know that you are always available to him. And if he notice you being not available at all times to him he will ask why? and will definitely do something to make you be available again for him. But also, there is downfall for this method. You should also know that he will react the way you think and might backslash at the end when you became cold to him and he let it be and didn't do anything its a redflag that he is not interested. Additionally don't ever let him know your plan doing this reverse thing make him more cautious as well.
I think you just have to talk to him, state clearly what you want and work with what he responds with. Obviously, you could pick a time where it would be better to talk about it but if you're not open and honest, he might not understand and things might continue as they are

I’m clingy want a guy with me daily live in same house but boyfriend isn’t clingy he lives with mom. We meet only one time a wk , sometimes 2x a wk if I’m lucky. Sometimes we have gaps and meet only 3x a month. If there’s no event during a weekend that we can go to then we don’t meet as there’s nothing we can do for fun.
Us guys can't coup with this side of the female life. Because we don't know the feeling. So... we come off like as$holes. My opinion, find out his favorite pass time. And join him for a bit. Not too much. Just enough to get over it. Before you walk away show him ur needyness lol and walk away. He will stop what he is doing, and attend you.
10 year married. And I know her strategy. But I understand her needy moments, and i return the love.Now it's the time to ask for what I you want. If he's not interested, then he's not the man you want.
You can't, but if he loves you, being needy, clingy, and codependant is ok, and he will smother you in attention if thats what you want. So stop worrying and just tell him what you want.
Literally just say it. Be playful and cute about it. Don't be weird and cringe. Just say it honestly and confidently.
Be straightforward with him. You have needs especially if you are horny during your period. I love period sex myself so try touching him and express how you ferl.
"... without sounding needy..."
hellooooo!! you ARE sounding needy/clingy/codependent - bc you ARE.
stop being such a big baby about it.Good question, I actually have felt that way as well. I just asked him to hold you or get closer to him physically. I, myself just straight up asked if I was too needy and explained my feelings towards the situation. Communication is key. 😊
it probably won't sound needy or clingy if you guys have a decent relationship in the first place
Take it!!!
