LTR getting progressively clingy.

I dont mind her being needy or clingy but can this clingyness be compensating for some of her bad behaviors?

Only if she's a specific kind of fucked up and those behaviors are conscious. I suppose you'd be using the word "possessive" if that was the case.

She's probably just engaging in betafying. Watch out for it if you intend to keep the LTR.

Are you getting the vibe where she might cut your dick off while you're sleeping? If not, she is worried that your value is too high for her so she will want to make you more of a pussywhipped bitch which is funny because if that happens, she will be the one leaving you. It's like she's holding onto a balloon and wants to shove it under water. Just keep doing what you're doing, and if you can't take the clingyness anymore, dump her. It's your choice, not hers.

but can this clingyness be compensating for some of her bad behaviors?(like cheating,or talking with other guys?)

It's normal and it's a bit of insecurity showing through. Tell her what to do and what not to do, but it's fairly normal.

Recognise that satisfying her clinginess won't lead to sex.

See less of her, make her feel a bit better. But not too much.

Yes.

The clinginess is dread of you leaving. She may act out on this by cheating, reassuring herself by talking to other men, being increasingly needy.

Neediness is a red flag.

Jealousy is cute and a little insecurity is ok. But outright neediness? Red flag.

Check her phone.

Set boundaries and if she’s violating them drop her.

Don’t try to solve problems you aren’t having.
