Do I make a pest of myself here, like I am in need of constant reassurance? [View all]

Please be honest, at times I feel like some puppy that follows around and gets constantly under foot. And, I've realized I do this in flesh and blood life as well.

Please don't feel inhibited if the answer is yes, I am just looking for ways to relate more appropriately with people, and no answer would offend me.
