Episode Title Disliking a Sibling's Boyfriend or Girlfriend
Phrase clingy
Text The word "clingy," in this podcast, means needing and depending on someone too much, trying to spend a lot of time with that person and touching him or her all the time: "In the days immediately after the earthquake, Wanda was more clingy than usual, probably because she was scared." If clothing is "clingy," it stays very close to one's body, revealing its shape: "You'd have to have a perfect body to wear such a clingy dress." Finally, the phrase "to cling to (something)" means to continue to believe or have something even though it is no longer helpful, useful, or true: "Even though there's no scientific proof, many people cling to the belief that there is life on other planets."
