I am trying to make sense of why some people act in an overly attached or clingy manner when they meet someone. Does it not register that most people will be highly put off by such behaviour?
I'm talking about incessant texting, "I love you" way too early on (like on the 2nd date), pressure to move in together, asking why you haven't called or texted back within a certain amount of time.
Why do people do this? As far as I am concerned, it's an instant attraction killer and something that will make me simply want to run for the hills.
I'd love some opinions on this. It irritates the crap out of me when people do it.
When "people" do it? Haha, come on now. You talk about this as though both sexes do it equally. But it's women who do that kind of thing 99% of the time, not men. There's no need to be politically correct Amy, we're all friends here. No one is going to jump on your for telling the truth.

I am a man and I absolutely disagree. There is a lot of guys out there who are emotionally and psychologically unstable.
How many times have you heard of a story about some creep that just would not leave a woman alone and she had to file a restraining order?
I know very few guys who had to do the same against a woman.

Wrong. Men do it too, maybe even more. Neither sex has the monopoly on being overly attached and clingy. You just want to associate it with women.
I'm not trying. It just is. Sure there are men that do it but for the most part it's women. They don't have to do it (after all, no one has a monopoly, right?) but they do. If you want an honest conversation, then just be honest.
Jeez, even in your two examples above, you're saying I love you etc, and guys are merely being persistent when pursuing, which is something different. That's not clinginess, that's persistence. there's a difference.
I love you after 2 dates? It's happened a few times. It isn't persistence, it's creepy and weird. You can't love someone after just 2 or even 5 dates. And then demanding that I message them back or reply
I'm not saying women don't do it, but this wasn't an attack on men. It's aimed at clingy people in general.
I told a girl I loved her on a first date and I meant every word of it.
I would've ran lol
