hey there!
I read about this community in my own,
lovey_dovey, and decided I had to check it out. ^^ being a cling on is a relatively new thing for me, I think because my new boyfriend is the first person I've ever really wanted to be around ALL THE TIME. here's a story!
we met in japanese class at the beginning of second semester (january). we were both in other relationships at the time, so while we got along wonderfully, had tons in common, and thought each other were pretty neat, we stayed well behind the just-friends boundary. towards the end of the semester (april/may), we were involved in a group project together and started seeing each other more outside of class. things in our other relationships started to fall apart and all of a sudden we found ourselves confessing that we'd liked each other since day one, but we were both scared. school was ending, our other relationships (which had each been going for the past year and a half) were over, and we were worried about hurting each other or being hurt. things were really rocky for a little while between us and the other people in our lives, but we managed to be in each others' company almost constantly for a month. at that point he became pretty much my only security. I started to cry uncontrolably every time I had to go home without him or when he had to go to work without me for a few hours. I've gotten a little over that now, but I still miss him terribly when he's not around. he's just the most wonderful person to me and I keep finding more and more reasons to love him.
this community is promising, hopefully I'll have some good clingon stories soon! ^^
