And then he saw the next homeless man.He was shivering because of coldness.The young man now stopped for a second and gave his scarf to him.He then said goodbye to him with a big smile and went away in the snow.

You know, that person who often calls,texts, and e-mails. He often needs your attention, your feedback,or your help.Worse yet, he often gets antsy when you dont reply immediately.Is there ever a moment when you just want to turn off your phone and be alone? But you wont do that to a friend. Actually there are better ways to deal with a clingy friend.Give Yourself Some Time If you really need some time for yourself, or youre just tired of being the listener, just explain to your friend honestly that you want or need some time of your own.Even the most determined friends will understand and give you some space. Of course, those extremely clingy friends will still call, text, and e-mail. If that happens, just reply gently that you need some time for yourself.Suggest an Activity for Your FriendIf you re tired of different get-togethers and outings, then you should advise your friend to do something alone. If you both like sports, you could tell your friend to have a try at the new gym. If your friend likes your suggestion, but insists that you go along, just explain that youve already visited the gym. Mention that you enjoy the gym. If youre lucky , hell try it, and like it.Introduce Your Clingy Friend to Others.Your clingy friend may just be lonely or have trouble meeting new people. If thats the case , introduce him to others with similar interests. He may just make some new friends._Theres no reason for you to rudely tell your clingy friend that hes a pain in the neck.
