I've had my share of clingy guys, but never dated any of them. My exes were a lovely bunch (well, okay, 'lovely' might be pushing it in one particular case, but he was lovely once we were friends rather than partners).
There was one jealousy related incident - my ex and I were both planning to go to the same fetish party, and we were both somewhat concerned that I would be jealous. Turned out I was fine, but he got a teensy bit upset when he went into one of the booths and found me in flagrante with a bunch of our friends. But since he was both a decent guy who knew he had no business dictating my actions and in possession of some pride, he just quietly excused himself and left. And since I'm so nice (sort of, in the right light, if you squint) I went after him, and there were happy endings all around. God, I really enjoyed my misspent youth.
