    The only real advice that counts is this...call him constantly. Every 30 minutes. There is not time for rational talk or open communications. Actively stalk him. Show up at his work. Even try some inappropriate quickies in the break room or storage closet. Make him scream for space.

    Love it! It's the only solution that makes sense.

    Why do men feel they have to smother you with love?!

    How about if we smother you with a pillow, but it's done with love?

    I totally agree......give him what he is giving you and let him know how it feels...............

    I think it's pretty obvious what is going on here. He's jealous of your weight loss.

    He is going out a lot lately and he put a password on his cell phone. You don't really think he's cheating, do you? He tells me he loves me.

    I like the online couselors who are advising, with no knowledge of the couple, that the husband is cheating. That's awesome.

    ^^ that..!

    Letting a bunch of people get into your head on here is not going to help.

    In my experience Clinginess like that has been due to cheating with one guy. And is just a personality flaw in another.

    Youre saying its started after 2 years of marriage? Youre saying he's going out more? Did any of this start after you started losing weight? Men really are just an insecure as we are

    There could be a million things going on in his head. Sit down and have a heart to heart and clear the air.. let him know your concerns, and find out what's going on. Tell him that his behavior seems peculiar to you, and you want to know what's up. If he really loves you, he'll tell you what's the deal. You may want to lead your w/your questions a little bit, but try not to make any assumptions or lay blame anywhere.

    he could be cheating he could not be. maybe he's overcompensating, maybe he's just controlling and super needy its hard to say. i've never been the type to "check up" on anyone but my wife tends to take that as lack of concern, only thing i can advise is to ask him why he feels the need to check on you so much esp if he's spending so much time away.

    Just sit down and have an open, honest discussion with him. Don't assume he is doing something wrong or he has some deep-seated insecurity about your weight loss. You just have to be honest and ask him to do the same. The thing you don't want to do is let this fester and undermine your marriage.

    Just to clarify... I was kidding. This is silliness that many folks working to lose weight believe.
