sad introvert noises :(

There is such a thing as over communicating. It would be like people constantly being on the phone together, there's only so much to talk about. I would save some to be more engaging when I'm face to face. We have a couple, who both work here. They work different shifts, but both of them spend their entire breaks and lunches talking to each other on the phone. Idk how they do it. My wife and I most generally exchange 3 texts when I'm at work.

It could be. I tend to be over anxious when I don’t get a respond because of past relationships. I know that fucks with my head. But when I like someone I care too much. So I read into everything

What you focus your conscious attention on multiplies. Take time doing other things you enjoy and focus your focus in improving and becoming the best version of yourself.

It’s easier said than done. I get so depressed ab it
[–]AppropriateLink5330 -1 points0 points1 point 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
It’s called an anxious attachment style and it’s often times really hard to control it which is exactly what OP just said with “it’s easier said than done” :/

You gotta work on not getting attatched too easily man. It helps if you have either a plethora of women, or you have things you’re passionate about and a vision you’d like to bring forth.

From my experience. She lost interest and might be talking to other guy (or guys), it's the reality of dating now. "She's not yours, it's just your turn" Richard Cooper.
By the way, Rich cooper has a video on this subject on YouTube. Look for Entrepreneurs in cars, you can learn a lot about dating from him. Cheers brother, you're the prize, not her.
[–]FreeNicky95 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (20 children) | Copy Link
But why is she so intimate and in to me when we are together? Like it doesn’t make sense . She seems genuine and not the type to play me
[–]Sensitive_Party_7100 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (18 children) | Copy Link
Have you asked her why she became distant?
[–]FreeNicky95 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (17 children) | Copy Link
That’s the thing. I was just with her yesterday into today. Great time together. She told me to text when I got home. But it’s just so dry
[–]Sensitive_Party_7100 10 points11 points12 points 4 years ago (13 children) | Copy Link
Call her, don't text her. Ask what's going on. She was very engaged before, now she's not. That's a reasonable question.
[–]FreeNicky95 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (12 children) | Copy Link
I thought about doing this but I also don’t want to push her away if it is nothing
[–]Sensitive_Party_7100 16 points17 points18 points 4 years ago (7 children) | Copy Link
If a simple question pushes her away... She's not that into you.
Just don't sound insecure. But stop being concerned and stress over a girl that is giving you mixed signals, your peace of mind is worth everything.
[–]FreeNicky95 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link
I agree but it’s not that simple because she told me she recently broke up with her ex and wanted to go slow make sure it is a good fit
[–]Sensitive_Party_7100 3 points4 points5 points 4 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link
I see. Well, so you shouldn't be that invested, I know it's hard when you really like the girl. She's not making you a priority, don't make the mistake of making her your priority. She just want to keep you there, waiting and expecting until she makes a decision? Wtf is that. Do you want her for a long-term relationship?
[–]FreeNicky95 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
My happiness tends to rely on this which is shitty because I know that’s not healthy.
[–]FreeNicky95 -1 points0 points1 point 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I fall quickly 🤦♂️ when I’m with her I just feel a strong connection so yes I don’t know her well but could see myself taking it further.
[–]PondScum420 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
Better to ask than to wonder endlessly
I understand the game. It’s just a tough situation. I think the only thing I can do is match the energy
[–]FreeNicky95 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
It’s just that we aren’t in a relationship and she has no obligation to me or owe me anything
[–]PondScum420 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
You’re in a relationship, it’s just casual. It’s fine to ask, in a respectful way, with a neutral tone. If you say it with a shaky voice and like you’re hanging on her every word, yeah that could push her away.
[–]NotThatSlick 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Maybe she’s being friendly and you’re picking it up incorrectly. So maybe she did really lose interest but wants you around as friends.
[–]FreeNicky95 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Nope. It’s over. I called her this morning and she said she was feeling overwhelmed. She is fresh out of a relationship so it was stupid of me to think she was any different. She promised me it was because it was too soon and she thought she was over it. I was like you don’t have to lie just keep it 100 u got my replacement that’s cool just be real. She was like no I promise I don’t it’s not about that. I just need to be alone. Whether this is true or not I may never know but my peace of mind is back. If I scored this girl there’s no reason I won’t score another. Just a numbers game
[–]NotThatSlick 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Hopefully you learned something. Wish you all the best
[–]1000miles_if_i_could 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
She might be genuinely a nice person and wants something casual. That’s why she might not text often. It takes time to text when there’s nothing to talk about. Hanging out is another thing
[–]mattgk39 3 points4 points5 points 4 years ago (7 children) | Copy Link
Maybe she’s just not that into texting? If she’s not flaking or bailing on you, and she’s into you and shows strong interest in person, then what’s the problem? Try setting up times to facetime. Facetiming is so much better. I honestly prefer to facetime than text when I know a girl a bit better. Also maybe you’re texting her way too much? You don’t need to be in contact with her all day every day.
That’s also ran through my head. She shows a strong interest in person. But at the beginning she was super engaged. Idk if began chasing and she stopped or it’s just how she texts. I know she always has her phone.
[–]mattgk39 4 points5 points6 points 4 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link
How quickly do you usually respond when she texts? I’m just saying it can get exhausting trying to keep up with texting someone all day every day.
Yeah. I usually respond between 20-45 minutes if I’m not doing anything. Sometimes up to 2 hours when I’m working. Before we used to text like every 2 hours at least whereas now she takes even longer
[–]mattgk39 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
How much longer? Maybe she’s just trying to spread out the conversation. Idk I’d find it really hard to come up with something new to say every 2 hours.
[–]FreeNicky95 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
She will take 4 or 5 hours now
[–]mattgk39 5 points6 points7 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Lol. You’re over-thinking this way too hard. That’s not really a long time to respond. If she’s clearly into you in person and she is easy to set up plans to meet up with then I wouldn’t worry too much. I know I just would grow tired of texting someone every 30 minutes of every day pretty quickly.
I hope this is the case lol. Appreciate you
[–]Important-Quote9544 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
if she is pulling back then you have to do the same.
I do believe this is the only correct option. But how do I do it? Just respond slower and less?
[–]BreakinLiberty 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Just stick to short quick flirty texts and text her tonight if you talk and send her a text wishing her well during the week and leave it there. Go be busy with life and not text her until she engages later this week
If she really misses you she will engage
[–]FreeNicky95 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Well I feel like I should update everyone. Thanks for all the advice. It is over and I feel as though we need to take a lesson from everything. Game is real. It works and it’s laws are true. She was losing interest and not ready for a relationship after being recently single and felt overwhelmed. I am hurt, but it was stupid of me to think It would be different. All girls are the same fellas. I’ll stick to game and keep my feelings aside moving forward. I’m tired of being hurt :/
[–]KingWolf7070 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Some people just don't communicate well through text. It really is that simple. Not sure why this is so confusing to people. And it's the same for other ways to communicate. Some don't like talking on the phone. Some don't like video calls. People just have different styles.
I hope this is true. It’s very confusing signals
[–]Kawi9834 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Text/call to set dates. That’s it. Engage her in person, not through texts
[–]ImAAllrightGuy 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
connections aren’t built through text rather its done in person.
Don’t waste your time trying to “connect” through text, or worse via a DM. You have to realize a women has 100 guys trying to slide in her text, dms every single day.
If you are texting her about what you did in your day, and regular stuff that normal people do then you are doing it wrong.
Everyone goes through the same convo. with their friends, co-workers and literally everyone. They don’t need another person to have that same exact conversation.
Be that ”interesting” guy that she wants to meet up with again rather than another dude.
Edit: Fix format
[–]spicy_simba 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Hey there buddy,
This is how you get your freedom :
Ask her
If she likes you, she will still like you after, if not then you will stop wondering about, and everything will be clear
Yeah minimise texting maximise meeting up then. If you feel her being flaky talk to other girls
[–]Efficient-Evening911 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I have the same issue some times she is really enthousiast sometimes she repond me 24h after or dry message me tryed to call her but it was late night and she fell asleep i dont want to call her again to not look too pushy ...
[–]Pimp_juice0001 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
She is losing interest bro ...make her pregnant
[–]mrbossman123 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Don’t have conversations over text. Use texting to send date confirmations, location, and things that you can’t do on a call. And even calling, try not to spend more than about 5-10 minutes on a call (unless it’s extreme circumstances like she’s crying about something).
Your goal is to make sure she stays excited to see you in person because that’s where her feelings develop the most by far. Remember that
Yes . I struggle with this because as you know when a girl is interested in the beginning attraction is high. She is super communicative and I tend to then reciprocate. But I’m not insane and if I continued to make the same mistakes I would be insane. I need to just play it cool . I let a good one get away because of my own insecurities
[–]mrbossman123 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Without self-control and patience, her attraction will fall gradually. Too much enthusiasm for her is not masculine or attractive. It’s childish and a little feminine. She needs to feel like a part of your life, not your life.
You have to have other things going on that she thinks are more exciting for her and makes her want to come along for the ride. And if that’s true, then naturally, you don’t have all the time in the world to call and text. If this isn’t true yet, act like it is, but work hard on making your life like this at the same time.
Example: Tell her, when you start a call, that you’re about to [do something interesting but believable if it’s made up] but you have a minute so you wanted to see if she’s free on [day] to see each other, no pressure.
[–]BackFlashy2939 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Best to have other things that peak your interest during your non texting or just in-between the conversation in general
[–]Sup3rHD 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Dont call, dont facetime, dont text
Let her reach out to you Text back later, after hours,
Be busy, talk to other girls
[–]bandsupjay 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
Depends. Did u fuck? And how many times. Dont take it personal and dont be needy. Find other girls and keep this one on the side who cares what she does. Someone said text less and call more. Thats a good idea whenever u get the chance to. Just do facetimes and link up whenever
Appreciate you. It’s over now … we did fuck once hung out only 4 times it wasn’t a long term thing it was new. But my gut was right. I gotta stick to game
[–]bandsupjay 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Yea bro. Feel you
[–]Nofapgeneral77 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
Im with my gf for 3 years, after half a year we text only when we need to agree on our plans or whatever. Just small talk. U dont need to be in contact all the time. Important is face to face.
Text less, I like telling them that I don't like texting.. sometimes some people don't actually like texting and it's also kinda a turn off if you do it too much..
