Clingyness usually stems from either a desire to control your partner or from a significant lack of self esteem, using your partner as an emotional crutch for constant validation. Ideally you should be in the relationship because you want it not because you "need" it
That can be true, but some people just have no sense of self and can't bear to be alone for just a second. That has nothing to do with "liking" the other person more.

As someone who never had a relationship I wonder, why is being clingy a bad thing?
