Your friends are right mate. Give her the space she wants so she has the opportunity to miss you and the stuff you did together. Being clingy will not help you, especially as she said that you are not dominant enough and needed constant reassuring.
Being clingy and like this in a relationship will wear the other person down eventually, so being clingy out of it wont do you any favours either xxx
