That's a direct quote from a recent post by justsaymyname and it reflects his experience with his SBs.  But it got me wondering if it's common.  It's certainly not been my experience.  My longest running Arrangements currently are 1.5 and nearly 2 years running. Both of these lovely young women see other men both for fun and profit and they are perfectly aware that I see other women.  Neither has ever shown the slightest hint at wanting to be clingy or exclusive, or my "one and only" or anything like that.  I am currently involved with 4 other SBs who also seem to value their own independence and mine same as my longer term lovers.  And thinking back over all the SBs I've known, I can't recall even one who became clingy.  In fact, many have said that clinginess is a deal breaker for them and they have ended Arrangements when the men became clingy and controlling and possessive, or tried to limit their freedom and independence in any way.  And they extend the same attitude to me.  So I wonder, is clingy SB behavior common?

I imagine there are lots of variables ... your looks, your wealth, your charm, your availability.   Not to mention her assessment of her own prospects.   It's pretty hard to say what's common out there.

My experience aligns with sweetman....
My SB's vanish at the first sign of clingyness from their SD's, and l haven't found
any Klingon SB's either... just another 2©

I had one SB, early on in my SA experiences, who decided that,  having seen each other twice, we were a "thing" and she freaked when I said I could see her for "several weeks", which somehow she read as "seven weeks"(?). She's the only one I've blocked, and in hindsight, I didn't have to be so drastic.

As for all the others? Honestly, I'm more attached to them than they are to me.

Yeah, some old guy and some young hottie ... Which one will likely want it to continue longer.

After 1 year in the bowl, I had one who wanted to be exclusive and was upset when I told her I didn’t  want that.  In my experience, it’s natural for older women.  Most women in the bowl are under 30, and they feel differently.

My best experiences have been with married women.  That’s perfect.

So I guess I should chime in about my situation.

I've never had trouble pulling 9s and 10s in real life, even as a broke and fat college kid dressed in torn T-shirts.  I'm now in great shape, wealthy, well groomed and still look like I graduated college not too long ago.  My main issue with getting laid back in the day was that girls wanted commitment before putting out, or they would fuck me a few times and then want me to be exclusive before putting out again, claiming how the sex was magical.  Back then, it was easy to fuck the shit out of girls, because people were less porned-out.  So many girls had never had an orgasm with intercourse and most didn't know they could squirt with intercourse (and yes, I've learned to be even better in bed over the years).  They saw me as boyfriend/husband material back then so I guess I'm just an upgraded version of that now, even though I make it loud and clear I will continue to see other girls and will never again settle down with anyone.  

I am definitely guilty of letting my unicorns feel really special though, because it gets them to drop their prices along with their panties.  I also enjoy the flattery and the sweetness, so I'm not surprised they would get clingy.  As long as they don't outright try and stop me from seeing others, I can let it ride.
