I know this term is used for tags, labels, emotional connections, etc., but I am not sure I can use it for a sarcastic purpose to express my negative idea about a person who follows me everywhere and imposes his/her ideas about me to me against my will like this:
S/he attaches her/himself to me everywhere I am!
If not so what the other phrases or terms do you suggest me for this?
Answer
Using attach does sound a bit formal for describing someone who follows you around (I am not sure what you mean by "imposes his/her ideas about me to me") in an insecure and unwelcome manner. But attach could be used for this meaning, as could the adjective overly-attached. Other more casual expressions are:
- She clings to me
- She latches onto me
- He follows me around like a puppy dog
- He is clingy
- She doesn't give me any space
