   When is affection too much affection?
   
   I was listening to the radio today on my way to work and 2 stations were talking about a statement Chad Ochocinco made "After 6 months he loses interest in a woman."  But, he lets them know this upfront.  So can women be too clingy in relationships and does this make a man lose interest.

   I don't believe it's so much an issue of being too clingy or too affectionate as it is being with the (right) person for yourself!
   When it comes to dating and relationships we are always looking for "gender shortcuts". We want to say women want this and men want that because it's easier than looking at individual women/men
   Ultimately everyone wants to be loved for who (they) are. If you are a person who enjoys a lot of affection the solution is not to become someone you are not but rather find someone who appreciates you for who you are! Happiness comes from being true to yourself!
   The goal is to find someone who shares your same values, wants the same things for the relationship as you do, (naturally agrees) with you on how to get those things, and last but not least have a (mutual) depth of love and desire for one another.

   Too clingy can be a problem for some relationships. I have seen and know of the clingy relationship  which did not last it makes your  partner feel like you don't trust him or her. Too much affection can spoil a good realistic relationship.

   When you become too possessive about the person you love, you literally cling to him. To a man,love is part of his life and not his entire world. When you make persistent calls to verify his whereabouts he hates it. When you do not give him enough space and take decisions about his life he soon loses his love.
