1. Being Needy in a Relationship
Am I being needy in my relationship? This is a question women ask themselves
sometimes. A relationship can be overwhelming. Sometimes, individuals barely
realized that they are being needy. Maybe, you have experienced this yourself. It is easy
to give in to your emotions that you barely observe you are already being needy in a
relationship.
The Wrong Approach
When taking steps toward intimacy or passion, you must make sure that you know
how to measure or gauge your partner's reply to your actions. You must know when to
wait. Sometimes, women who are too fast to take action are perceived as needy. For
instance, if your date went so fine, do not immediately ask for another date the next
day. Let the guy request you out. You do not want to come across as pushy. Frequently,
guys need some room to think. Even after they have a awesome time with you on your
date, he will most possibly want to think and consider if he would like to go further
with you. If you are wondering, "Am I being needy?" The answer is obvious. Yes, you
are.
The Right Approach
If you would like to reach out without sounding aggressive, you might want to say, "I
had a great time. I would like to have time with you again. What about next weekend?"
If your date is fascinated, he will likely respond with, "I had a great time as well. I

2. would really like to spend sometime with you again. What about Wednesday?" By
taking this approach, you will be able to confirm your concern and excitement without
sounding pushy or needy. You will be able to give him his breathing space without
eliminating the chance to get his feedback.
Passion and romance have to find certain balance. It is important that you do not
pressure your date into anything he is not ready for. Do not push him into taking the
next step when he is not ready for it. Let him think it over and give him enough
breathing room. Allow him make the move. Being needy and pushy generally make
impression that you have low self-esteem.
The next time you ask yourself, "Am I being needy?" Take a good look at yourself
because you just might be. Passion is not intrusive. Always respect the other person's
boundaries.
