What it means to be clingy
Your ex said you were too clingy, or they were too stressed about an event in their life. The problem is you have come to rely on your ex for your emotional well-being and this is not fair to them. You need to be responsible for your own happiness. It may get you by for a while but it's actually very unhealthy and will not make for a successful relationship in the long run. Furthermore, you are unable to be there for them when they need it.
Practice the relational skill of acceptance
You need to see the world through your ex’s eyes. You need to see them as more than a means to an end. You have to see him as someone beyond your boyfriend with a role of making you happy. You need to realize they are their own separate person and when you can see them for all that they are, you can begin to have more of a symbiotic relationship in which you are both getting something from the relationship.
Being a partner instead of a burden
When your ex leaves because they are experiencing a stressful event in their life, it is because they see you as more of burden than a partner. When you perfect the skill of acceptance and learn to see your partner as a whole person, you will be able to see the pain they are feeling. Instead of feeling like a burden during their time of you need, your ex will see you as someone they want to spend time with.
