What is Clingy Behavior?

Being too clingy in a relationship is generally considered one of the unhealthiest ways to treat a romantic partner. Clingy behavior includes limiting your partner's social partners to only you, constantly texting your partner or asking for their emotional support, and unreasonable monitoring of social media accounts.

Partners interjecting themselves too much into a relationship weakens the sense of individual identity experts agree everyone should have in a relationship. Co-dependency carries the potential risk of violent outbursts, damaged family dynamics, and extreme depression if a breakup occurs.
