How to distance yourself without making his feelings fade?

I'm overly clingy while my boyfriend is in the comfortable zone. If it matters, I'm a Cancerian while he is Sagittarius. Our personalities are exactly what it all says online…
Anywho, in what ways can I make myself less needy/clingy to this Cancerian man without making him think I don't love/care about him anymore, and potentially push away from me?
If he messages me, should I not message back? We message on an iphone application where you can see when the other person was last ween online.
What best ways can I make myself less clingy and stuff? I want him to show me more love like back in the days and chase after me…

Two points to best answer

Added (1). I meant to this Sagittarius man*

Sagittarians are outgoing, social and don't like clinginess. I've displayed enough and i need to stop before it hurts me more coz he's not clingy like me

Added (2). Btw we've been together almost a year. He's past the clingy stage already while i just got into it and so i feel pretty down and left out because his attention isn't really on me anymore.
I dunno i read the zodiac stuff and it seemed pretty accurate (i don't believe them but it was insanely true haha.)

I guess, how can i come about as not clingy anymore? I want the chase to happen again.

Added (3). Oh and i'm scared hes getting bored of me. I really want this relationship to work.we've message eachother everyday since day 1. Would the messaging get boring too?
he stopped saying i love you and stuff… I guess at first i thought he didn't anymore but maybe this is part of that 'comfortable stage'

Your number one thing to get over… Is fear of losing him. He is not yours to lose, he belongs to himself… A relationship is about two people making a choice to spend time together.

Once you get that, try to do things on your own, such as going out with your girlfriends sometimes and making more new friends so you can spend time with them thus giving him more space.

First of all he's not going to chase after you this isn't freeze-tag, you need to relax with all the zodiac stuff though because that stuff is usually all bull, he's a guy and he clearly likes you enough to e comfortable with you, you should be excited that he's texting you and if you feel like you want to talk to him then talk to him, don't ignore him because you think you won't look clingy, hell just think your mad or he did something wrong and that's random. I really hate when people do that. It's not clingy if you're dating, call him talk to him, text him whenever you want hell probably actually like that you enjoy his company and enjoy talking to him and hell start talking to you too. The whole wait for him to text so you could ignore thing is really lame, don't do it. Enjoy your relationship and stop trying to act like something you're not.
Hope this helps good luck.

If you are doing this intentionally i would suggest not to. If you guys are not able to be together talk about it and tell him to be good friends. If you fear you can't tell him than just fight over silly things and let him be the first one to say he is no more interested. That may help. Its never about two sun signs or numbers, its always about your understanding. Best of luck!
