So, how to avoid being an obsessive girlfriend?

Acknowledge him and accept him as he is and not try to transform him to suit your liking. Every individual is different and let him be what he is.

Give him space. Understand that he has a life apart from you too. He has friends, colleagues and familytoo which are part of him life apart from his hobbies and passions.

If you feel that you are becoming too interfering and obsessive it is because you do not have a life yourself and your only interest is him. You should indulge in activities which makes you happy. You should make friends, involve in family activities and hobbies or do anything you find fascinating or would like to be skilled at.

Know to read his body language and recognize when to pull back or leave him alone.

Try analyzing what makes you feel obsessive. Is it fear of being alone? Fear of rejection? Try working on your confidence so that you overcome your fears, insecurity and negativity.

While talking do not dominate always. Ask question and listen to him as well.

When spending time with him try spending quality time together. Remember it is not quantity but quality that matters. So try your level best to make the time memorable so that he would want to spend time with you more.

Do not always say ‘yes’ when he wants to meet you say ‘no’ once in a while too. If you jump to meet him every time he wants to see you will seem too desperate.
