I meant.... more that people who claim to be clingy or just as clingy as me even tend to tell me that they need space from others, including the people they're closest to- and I don't .... have that.

If I care that much about a person I never want time away from them, even if it's- probably healthier and easier to prevent fights with that space.

I put a lot of effort into the carefully crafted facade of 'not clingy'. People seem to have a habit of believing that just because I don't speak or act on something- it's not there.
