It’s a game designed to make you chase. It’s a shit test to see if you will get all needy and insecure. If she is really as into you as you say, she will start wondering the same thing you are wondering. Believe me, she is going to notice. Women have more patience than Mercy Hospital. They all play these games. As a bonus, text her back short sentences and abbreviate or misspell words. She’ll notice you lack of attention and do anything to get it back. DO NOT EVER ACKNOWLEDGE OR ADMIT any of this. If she brings it up just play it off that you were busy.

She will not know that you know unless you tell her. She can only guess. KEEP HER GUESSING. Don't time it to the minute like her and be so obvious. Vary the length but make her wait longer than she made you wait.
I'll try and explain this game as succinctly as possible. You know damn well that she has her phone in her hand 24 hours a day. She is trying to set the frame with you that she is not waiting by the phone to get your text. She is high value and busy and has other things going on in her life. She doesn't want to appear needy and text you back immediately. She wants you to wait. She wants you to wonder. She wants to see how you react. If you bring it up than you may appear needy and insecure in her eyes. Shit test failed. No girl wants a needy insecure dude. You pass this shit test by not saying a damn word about it and doing the same thing to her. She will eventually bring it up. Don't ever admit to doing this on purpose. "Sorry babe I was really busy" Shit test passed. She lost her frame and became the needy insecure one. From then on you won't be waiting long for her to respond, I promise.
Moral of the story, text her back at the same rate she texts you back.

It's not the end of the world Bro. It is a natural thing that ALL women do. It's built into their DNA. Without getting too technical, women are designed by nature to look for the strongest men to protect them and give them strong babies. When they are attracted to a man, from time to time they will give shit tests and see if they are emotionally strong enough for their liking. They also give comfort tests which are the exact opposite, they want to see if you are emotionally supportive enough for their liking. Women also like to play games because they love drama and are emotionally driven creatures. You will drive her so crazy by beating her at her own game that she will love you even more for it. She may even slow down or stop with the shit tests for while. BUT, if you fail this shit test a bigger badder one is coming next Bro.

This is not a comfort test. You noticed this trend and it has you concerned. Don't feel any certain way about it. Women do this stuff subconsciously. She is not waking up and saying "I'm going to fuck with his head today". She just does it. Make her wait at least as long as she is making you wait, and then some. Try it for a couple of days and see what happens.

Have you asked her?
[–]micmeup 0 points1 point2 points 6 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
She might be, but you should still ask what you’re wondering. It’s not needy or insecure to notice how long it takes a person to respond to you, especially someone you’re into and it’s the same interval every time. Ask her. Talk. Use your words. It’s hot.
Whatever you do, DO NOT EVER BRING IT UP TO HER!!! She will wait longer to respond if she responds at all. You will appear needy. She might be playing games, she might not be. DO THE EXACT SAME THING TO HER. If she waits 10 minutes to respond, you wait 20. If she waits an hour, you wait 2 hours.

An eye for an eye is TERRIBLE relationship advice.

How about the refresh rate of the app, server, phone, cell service?
That's the first thing that comes to mind. It might even be on your end, not even hers.
Pretty much only possible if we're talking about SMS but good catch. I don't know how OP is communicating.

Reply to every text immediately.

Just to fuck with her for a little while

I tend to agree with the other suggestions that it is most likely a technical thing and not related to anything either of you are doing. The only way to rule that out would be to ask her directly if she is, in fact, doing it on purpose.

I want to know what app she’s using to do this. It’s gotta be an app since it’s so precise.
This could be a shit test, but it might also be that she wants to throttle the texts so she’s not on her damn phone texting you all day. If she always responds immediately, and you always respond immediately, that’s a recipe for not getting anything else done.
As a programmer I can confirm that your girlfriend is probably a robot because no human can be so accurate.
So anyways I would probably say something like; hey have you noticed your messages come in perfect intervals or smth like that. Try to sound as natural as possible, you don't want to judge her nor come off with judgy vibes.
