Why does this girl take 8 hours to text back?

Better question, why not go and find someone who’s willing to text you and be eager to have a chat or see you in person?

We can try and figure out the why, but the action isn’t going to change and it shows either she is often not on her phone, which is hard to believe for either gender to say unless on work or school, which even then allows a period of texting back and forth. Or, she’s not into you like you think and is playing games.

Honestly, don’t text back and find an actual excuse, like working, or lifting, or anything that makes you enjoy time by yourself. I promise you, you’ll feel so good by yourself, that you’ll see this as childish and not entertain this or find someone who will text back with interests

Do not, I repeat do not ask her why she’s taking so long to reply. Leave her on read until she double text you. Leave her on read everytime she takes forever to reply, she will get the memo.. or she won’t. You know what to do if she doesn’t

No, you don’t ever whine about how long it takes her to reply to you, because not only does it make you look needy, but also entitled to her time and attention which you are not.

People reply whenever the fuck they want, not when you think it’s an appropriate time.

Because it’s their choice to decide what her priorities are and how long they need to reply to your texts appropriately or if they wanna reply at all.

You whining like: “omg please reply to me, you are my priority, so make me a bigger priority in your life” sounds petty as fuck and entitled.

She will only rationalise that if she isn’t making you her priority it’s because she is just not that interested in you.

She will not fulfil your expectations no matter how much you whine about it, in fact expectations like this when you are not even her boyfriend will only exhaust her.

If she takes so long maybe you should focus on someone who is much more attracted to you than her.

Another thing to consider is if she is testing you to see if you blow up her phone. If I were you i would just ask her out

Bruh get a hobby. If I ever am sad a girl hasn't replied yet then clearly I'm not busy enough. I want to be the one that girls get mad at for not replying, but I make it up to them by calling later or meeting up in person.

Dude

If you're not going to ask her out, don't text her

A little perspective as well, when I started with women I had nothing going on. So I was always on my phone, or basically sitting around waiting for a text back

But successful people are actually busy. If a chick works full time, and goes to the gym she might not answer for a bit. Plus hot girls get dozens of messages from apps and texts all day. Maybe she's flirting with another dude as well. Maybe she's in school at different hours.

Now, since she's even getting back to you the same day she's at least trying to be nice

But you got to ask her out because it sounds like she'll eventually just ghost if you go pen pal mode

Ask her what her schedule is like this weekend

Some people have a lot of people texting them, 8 hours isn't that long of a lag for a well-socialzied person (if she is that). And do not go overt in your communication, it is such an unnecessary confrontation (kills vibes). Women communicate non-overtly.

If u don't like it, move on. Your time and effort are valuable, don't waste them on someone who won't respect them.

caesarfecit · 2022-04-07T13:12:21+00:00

Women do this type of shit because you let them. It's passive-aggressive and a sign of disrespect or lack of interest.

There's no point in getting mad at them, on some level they might even like that. And it makes you look needy or over-invested.

I follow Mark Manson's advice for women playing games which is to take the lack of interest they're trying to show at face value and do you. Now her bluff is called and she either comes correct or stays gone and you waste no more time.

She can be attracted to you, but she can also be attracted to 5 other guys and be more attracted to them. This shit is always very clear. If she is really into you, she will find a way to reply fast, because she is afraid of losing you. I have had dates with girls where I was 100% sure they were totally into me only for them to flake on me the next date and there is girls where I know they have a demanding job and cant be on their phone and yet they find a way to tripple text me 5 times a day. No don't show your emotional frustration like that, what you can do imo is call her out and say hey this texting once per 8 hours isnt working for me to have a good conversation. What about if I call you at x pm? Or even better don't address it and just say hey lets go for a drink at so and so time and place...

Sometimes we just get better at recognizing red flags when they appear

stanthemilkman88 · 2022-04-07T10:53:23+00:00

Why don't you have shit to do ?

Placated_Venom · 2022-04-07T11:08:55+00:00

She isn't that into you, move on. People make time for those they want to talk, even if they're busy.

Mriconicdev · 2022-04-07T11:25:52+00:00

Because she’s not that interested

ThePenTester88 · 2022-04-07T23:00:43+00:00

becuase she's probably not interested in you. it's impossible to build any type of relationship - with anyone, if you only talk every 8 hours for a minute or two.
