Are Turkish boys known for being clingy?

To be honest, I don't know too much about a Turkish guy's "moves" but from experience with knowing Turkish guys who have dated girls I know, they do tend to be "lovey dovey" to their loved ones. They are protective (to an extent) and lovey dovey. It really depends on how committed they are to relationships and things like that. Most MATURE Turkish men are classy about relationships and they don't kiss in public, it's not just Muslim behavior, it's just how Turkish men are raised. They don't kiss in public but, they do hold hands, care for their wives/girlfriends, etc.

I don't think he is lying at all but he might be more committed than you are or he is excited about the relationship and it means something more to him than what you are used to. Turkish guys don't date often so that could mean something. I can assure you he IS NOT lying but maybe this is a little too dramatic than what you are used to. It depends, has he newly come to the United States (or where you live) or has he been living there for awhile?

To answer you question plain and simple, they are not clingy. AT ALL. Except old-fashioned Turkish men.

Please do not make generalizations.
People do not represent their countries, they represent themselves. We are individuals. So is your boyfriend.

i wouldnt say clingy, id say very protective and jealous.
but if you love someone then you are protective and jealous sometimes. so yeah, i wouldnt say just about turkish people. but i have found that Turkish men are more protective, more considerate and more caring :)

Some of these answers are stupid!seriously!
Most Turkish guys are like that..im not sure why..its just their culture I think, I have been out with a few and they match your discription. Forget what some of these people are saying, its just rude!

He's not weird and it's very normal in Turkey. They value sentiments and if a guy is really in love, he could propose to you within weeks.

You both are still very young and young hearts could change fast, so just enjoy the romance while it lasts.

FINALLY!!!! someone else who gets it!!! winds me up SOOOO much when people say that ' yeh turkish guys are like that' 'he just wants a visa' etc etc ...EVERY BODY IS DIFFERENT!!!!! i know loads of turkish guys, i couldnt generalize them because some of them are shy n sweet like ur bf, some are soo cocky u wouldnt believe, its a mixture. please people open yoour eyes and stop generalizing people of different cultures. after all , not all guys in the US are dumb jocks are they? and not all guys in the UK are football obsessed womanisers. get my drift???

maybe he's too shy or nervous to kiss you in public how do i know? someone has to make the first move generally turkish men are protective (of course there are some exceptions) and concerned about their girlfriends all i'm trying to say is just talk to him if you wonder why he's acting this way

Hmmm....take it as a compliment, don't say it back if you don't mean it and don't worry too much about the kissing. I think a lot of young Turkish boys won't kiss in public because they consider it "ayip" (shameful) for elders and other people generally to see them showing public displays of affection. As I am not really a "PDA" person myself, it has never been an issue for me. But if it is something that irritates you, then you should discuss it with him.

I think the main things in relationships are honesty and communication - you won't get much further without them.

Good luck.

No.

The only information I can gather about your boyfriend is that he does not seem to be very discriminatory when it comes choosing girlfriends. Furthermore, girls like yo usually cry in the end of the relationship out of a hurt ego because the guy who "seemed to be head over ears" in love, now, suddenly dumped you for realizing you are "not his type".

"I'm like playing it cool and I'm blonde oh yeah uh-huh oh yeah uh-huh. It's just a little crush, all I can commit to is maybeeee"

"But how could he dump me, ME? boo-hoo. I'll listen to some Mariah Carey now, when you left I lost a part of meeee it's still..."

When a turkish man is serious about someone they are very possessive and romantic at the same time. Yes you will feel a little trapped maybe but he's not being harmful in anyway. It's just their way.
My husband is the same, and I've got used to it. It's good to show that they care so much. (6 yrs down the line).

Any guy whose experience is limited or doesnt exist at all with the opposite sex would more or less behave this way. It's not about being Turkish but about not having a lot of experience, just ask him how many girlfriends he had so far and u'll find the answer yourself. Btw run from him and do it fast
