Since all attachment types get clingy in the right situations, is there anything that stands out?

So, anxious types are usually thought of as the clingy ones, but fearful, dismissives and secures can also become clingy under the right circumstances

So, if someone is clingy at some point before, during, or after a relationship then is there a particularly strong indicator which type they are???  


Also, same question about being distant.

I’m not too sure where you’re getting the “everyone is clingy under right circumstances” from, but regardless, what’s important to understand is that an attachment style is understood through a persons *tendency* to behave in some way, not anecdotal instances of clingy behavior.

You’d have to observe a persons most common (typical) way of behaving over a longer period of time, preferably with different people they’re attached to. A single relationship may not provide enough insight into the way attachment works for that person, and any indication towards a specific type of attachment will be inconclusive at best.

Additionally, you’d want to analyze the quality of “clingy” behavior, and what causes such behavior in the first place (i.e., under what circumstances this behavior occurs).
