needy???

I can't seem to get over a friend of mines, whom I use to date. We are still very much friends, but I can't stop thinking about him, and i can't seem to get out of this needy habit of always wanting to talk to him.

Anyone been through this if so, how did you manage?

Being hung up on someone you used to date and being needy are two seperate things. If I had a needy spouse, he would exhibit such behaviors as always "needing" me to do this or that. "Needing" me to basically walk him through life and help him with everything.
To me, being a "needy" person means that you basically have to rely on everyone for everything and can't do for yourself not because of any disability or anything that would be considered acceptable but just for the fact that you have been allowed to carry on this way your entire life and just happen to have people around you who enable you to be this way.
Neediness is more of a emotional growth issues where you just lack confidence to be independent.

Now, someone who can't get over their ex isn't needy. It just means they have not moved on yet and it could be for several reasons, perhaps the proper closure wasn't there or say they haven't accepted that things are truly over, in that case they need to accept it and move on which in that situation you do need to get a new hobby or meet new friends, find ways to move on and be okay before you involve yourself in a new relationship.

There is difference between being needy and jonesin'. You are the latter.

Oh no! Quick, someone call the Witch Doctor!!! Well, do your best to delete all emails, text messages, throw away or put away letters and pictures and get a new hobby. Before too long the voodoo magic will be over and you'll be feeling brand new!
