You can stop by thinking that you do now own the person, you are only friends or is a girlfriend/boyfriend to him or her. You are still not married keep that in mind. In my experience I always think that what would her parents feel if I'm clingy with their daughter. Sometimes clinginess can lead to pre-marital sex imagine how your parents would feel if that happened to you. We must learn to put ourselves in our partner's shoes!

You need to take a step back and evaluate yourself. You need to put yourself in the other persons shoes and see how you would feel if they were constantly clingy with you.

I can stop being so clingy by talking to people more and getting my needs met. When I do not feel loved and accepted,I become clingy.

In all reality you're probably not clingy and just think you are. And that's okay. But if you feel it's becoming a problem then you should maybe let them speak first or let the other person make themselves feel clingy if you understand what I mean. Don't straight up say they're clingy but maybe you can just not talk to that person without ignoring them. Talk to them but try to let them talk first. Make it kinda 50/50.

Take time for yourself. A hobby could be just the thing to get you focused and perhaps offer challenge you never thought you would like. Being clingy can be another form of self doubt. Understanding yourself and building confidence in your abilities can help.

If you feel you're being a bit too much (too clingy). Tell yourself that they have a life too, they get busy and they have stuff to do. You have a life as well and make sure that you're getting done what you need to get done.

Sometimes being clingy is a result of you doubting something in the relationship. If you figure out what it is that your doubting, it just may help the clingyness to go away
