What is a clingy friend to you?
Sounds like you already have the right idea. To me, a clingy friend would be someone who has trouble abiding by personal boundries, or encroaching on personal space. Someone who always seems to be looking to spend time together when you know you should be spreading your attention out to others. Or incessant txt messages and dms and posts to your wall, being poked for no reason, being tagged in things just because they know you and the content barely makes sense. Leaning on you for advice way too often, things like that. Borderline obsessive but not in the same psychotic way.
How do I get rid of a clingy friend?
Tactfully. Unlike another responder, there is no reason to hurt someone just because you may not like them. If they are always around, make yourself less available. Make plans without them. Don't answer their calls or texts right away. If you like them, simply be less available to them. If you don't like them, over time, make yourself unavailable. If none of that works and they are always placing themselves in your life, tactfully tell them you need time alone or private time to be with someone else. If that does not work, tell them there constant attention is weighing on your friendship in an unhealthy and negative way. That you need a life apart from their constant behavior. That you like being with them some of the time but not all of the time. If none of that works, tell them that you need a break away from them. If that does not work, be blunt but not cruel or hurtful and tell them they need to move on.
What do you do when you have a clingy friend?
You will never win with someone like that, if you're mean to her YOU feel bad, if you're nice to her YOU feel bad. Sounds like she's already hurt you far worse than you could ever hurt her. Ask yourself if she's thinking about how upset you are right now. She knows exactly how to make your day horrible. Cut her out of your life right now, today. You sound like a good friend. You deserve a good friend don't you?

Why is my friend so clingy what do I do?
My new friend is real sweet but she's very clingy and attached to me. At first when we became friends she started walking with me to class, and she asked for my number to call me, and she wanted to have lunch for me I thought no problem BUT.... Now she expects me to meet her after every class, and she hugs me like 3 times everytime she sees me. And she gets mad if she can't find me at lunch or afterschool. And she always calls me a texts me and writes me notes in class. Sometimes they just say "I love you" She hates when I talk to someone else male or female and this guy asked me out and she said she'd stop being my friend if I said yes to him. And she gets mad if I refuse to hug her or I miss her calls or get busy and don't call her. She gave me a friendship bracelet and she says "Doesn't my bracelet mean anything to you: She cried once because I had plans with someone when she asked me to go to her house. She's starting to creep me out but she says if she loses me she's gonna die. She'll just follow me and give me dirty looks if I don't meet her somewhere. She gets mad when I don;t say ;I love you too" And anyone I don't like she hates them and writes them hate notes or tries to fight them and she bugs them. And she says if I'm her friend I should be willing to hurt someone she doesn't like or end a friendship with someone who doesn't like her which most of my friends don't and I don't wanna lose them
Clingy and nosy friend?
I have a "friend" that is really clingy and nosy and follows me and my close friend, Nicole, around. The clingy friend is named Jana. Whenever Nicole and I talk about personal stuff like guys and stuff Jana is always there asking us what we're talking about. She's like, not to be mean, but she is really childish and not mature at all. Also she freaks out over the littlest things and never shuts up. Nicole & I are tired of her always following us around. What do I do? sorry if that sounded mean.
