Isn't everyone clingy in a way?

Clingy and needy people just haven't figured out ways to entertain them self. There are times when others fill the void. You don't always like to be alone or not have friends to share memorable times with. But, at least you can say, okay I'll read a book or I'll do my music or art. Join a theater group or go the beach alone. It's easier to meet people when you are alone. But, if someone quickly latches on to you and becomes a pest it's because they are terribly lonely and can't figure out what to do with all their spare time. I tend to find productive things to do with my time. You will seek out a few good friends but most of your time should be happy times with yourself as well. Stay away from the real needy ones. They are negative energy and drag you down to their level. They always complain.
