If he continuously sends too many texts in a row, cut him off. Don't let a man blow up your phone.

I hate when they send you a text then hit you with the “???” two seconds later. Like damn get a life.

Eh it depends. I’m a hectic texter, I love to double text to let my friends know I think about them or to just say what I want to say. I love it when people send me random stuff they’ve found or were thinking about or telling me stuff from their life so I can hype them up.

To me people who text slowly and unenthusiastically are a huge turn off

Ugh! I had a guy who would repeat text me the same message over and over and over until I responded. Didn't matter if I was at work, or said I was busy. Just kept sending the same message on repeat. And we weren't even "dating" we had gone on ONE date. I just told him his phone better be broken because I have better things to do than be harrassed all day because I don't answer fast enough. Boy bye!

I usually agree with 99% of the advice posted here but tbh I feel like "he sent me 3 messages in a row" has got to be the most arbitrary reason to block and delete a guy. Fair enough if that's your standard but how is this objectively a red flag? Or objective advice that women should be following?

Edit: I should probably say it does depend on the content of the messages. If he keeps spamming you with "wyd ;)" then yeah yikes. But if he's talking about something interesting and he's split it up into a few messages then I don't see what the problem is? I have a female friend who's a huge bookworm and she sometimes sends 20 messages in a row talking about what's happened in the book and what she liked. Yes she has a job and hobbies. Like if the person is saying something of value then I don't mind if it's not one succinct message.

This is so true. If a guy is constantly texting you about every single thing that is going on in his life, it means that he does not have much of a life. When I'm out having fun with my friends, or busy working, or just busy with whatever, I don't have time to keep someone updated via text about everything I'm doing.

My ex would text me constantly when he's out with friends. I find it to be very rude towards his friends. One text to say that he is safe and having fun is enough, I don't need to know what music is playing and what he ordered for dinner.

Or whenever he watched a youtube video he would send me a link. I'm busy working, and then I have yoga class and grocery shopping to do. By the end of the day it would be an hour's worth of videos he wants me to watch. It's just too much.

God, and I loathe those "Good morning!" and "How was your day?" text messages. So inane. If you want to know, pick up the phone and call me; I don't have time to text all day. Seriously, we can go a day without texting if you don't have anything to say.

Block block block. No need to feel bad or feel it's too extreme. He knows what he's doing.

If he continuously sends too many texts in a row, cut him off. Don't let a man blow up your phone.

You are busy.
