Yes I have felt needy and clingy. It occurred in my child and teen years. I never felt loved by my abusive parents. A male teacher was compassionate towards me when I injured myself in the classroom. He kept comforting me. I suddenly felt cared for. After school I asked if I could study in his classroom. He allowed it. I couldn't bring myself to talk about the abuse I was suffering. I spoke about other minor things. One day he told me it would be best if I see the school counsellor and basically said I couldn't stay after school. He was never inappropriate with me. It's possible he was trying to protect himself in case of suspicion at school. I felt so hurt and abandoned. After that I distanced and never allowed myself to feel vulnerable. It hurt more to be abandoned so I put a wall up.
