LTR texting with no initation

In my experience if a girl ain't texting or snapping or whatever the kids are doing these days with you, and she is of average attractiveness or above, it's with someone else. Look at how much every girl is always by their phone.

Sounds like plate interaction tbh

This happened to me, turns out she was chatting up other men which I was lucky enough to catch-those conversations barely developed but was emotional cheating, which precedes physical cheating. Demoted to plate shortly after.

AWALT. They need attention, security and excitement. If she isn't getting it from you she's getting it from another.

I think you should just let things flow. If neither of you guys text much in general, not just to eachother then just let it be and dont try to force boring, lame conversation. But on the other hand, if when you're with her she's always texting friends etc, maybe you need to rethink things. Like someone else said though, sounds more like a plate situation.

Personally, I'm not a big texter. My LTR texts me first almost everyday if I'm not with her, I reply in my own time or when I'm on a workbreak. I sometimes text first if I need to ask her something or share something with her but never with small talk, I feel thats a good way to make things stale. Ask her about her day after work when you're with her if you feel the need.

Dont worry about texting. The only time you should be is to set up dates or hanging out.

With texting you cant convey the non-verbal messages that you need in order to maintain her view of you.

It's okay to initiate 1/3 of the times.

I'm going to have to tell you to turn in your man card now.

Wondering if you should or should not talk to her and then waiting for validation from the internet is something that a woman would do. It's not something that a man would do. Do you want to text her? Do so! Not feeling like texting her? Don't!

It's really not that complicated.

Sometimes girls play games with you. Those girls are not ltr material

How do you define LTR? Doesn't sound like LTR.

I text when i feel like it. Its naturally very random, sometime it can be few days in the row, sometimes there is week long nothing besided necessity from me. It works well, she gets attention but doesnt get complacement and when she needs comfort or whatever she initiates convo anyway.

Keep in mind to initiate less then her on grand scales. 2:3 rule or something..

Texting puts you at a disadvantage because you're supposed to focus on what she does and not on what she says, unless she sends nudes.

If she is on her phone often when you are with her, then I would demote her.

If she doesn't touch her phone while she is with you, you're in the clear
