Cloying

adj: sickly sweet, excessive

When Enid and Jay first started dating, their cloying affection towards one another often made their friends ill.

Often when someone is cloying it comes across as patronization.

Disgust or sicken (someone) with an excess of sweetness, richness, or sentiment: "a romantic, rather cloying story".

Synonyms; excessive, fulsome
