oh my god people don't understand the way you text in the first week of a new relationship where you're getting to know each other is NOT the way you're going to text forever!! it's not sustainable!!

I’m dating a guy.. who is a slower texter but he’s super consistent. He’s literally re-wiring my nervous system 😭💕

Tbh once you establish a consistent routine the texting thing becomes an after thought. Like Ive been seeing my boyfriend every Friday since we made it official (this is not the only day I see him). But after a month, I stopped caring about hearing from him everyday because I knew for a fact we’d be seeing each other Wednesday or Friday,etc.

Cell phones have created this false sense of instant access and that isn’t normal

I'll sound stupid but the only thing that helped me pull back from being so needy for text attention and ultimately feel better by myself is . getting a life. doing my thing. focusing on work, friends, hobbies,gym .. then I sort of stopped craving constant texting and felt more calm within myself ultimately. thank god cause I was miserable and I was the one making myself miserable

I think its more about compatibility. If someone wants to text all the time they should just date someone who also wants that. And vice versa.

Like the phrase is ‘absence makes the heart grow fonder’, not ‘absence makes you have a panic attack’ 😭

I’m the person who needs less texting and communication and I get called an avoidant. I’m sorry I don’t have the patience to narrate my day, all day, everyday. I want to open the phone and disassociate, not answer what I’m doing because I do the same thing at the same time EVERY DAY 😭

this maybe the main reason why I'm single. as soon as I get the "are you ignoring me text" I block em. I can't stand constant communication I'm not a child, I'm an adult with a career. Blocked

No seriously! It's why my last relationship FLOPPED. Too much texting. Too many miscommunications. Texting is a horrible way to communicate!

this is why relationships thrived before cell phones. we would call you when we got home.

I realize that I have this issue. In a talking stage with a guy right now and he’s SUPER busy with work. But he checks in every morning. And im going to be grateful for the morning chat, and not stress about the rest of the day.

Remember when we used to only talk in person or on a phone that was literally attached to your house? And everyone was somehow fine? I think about that a lot

I agree with this!! When I first started dating my boyfriend our dates were so amazing but I wasn’t hearing from him at all in between dates, which felt so weird. But I just tried to respect his communication preference and trust that he was really into me and just not a big texter. Now 4 months in we are so in love and communicating way more, seeing each other like 3 times a week. I just gave it time and let the situation play out. Your content really helped me do this and not make the lack of texting into a huge deal

Communication is key so let people know when you will and wont text them

Texting isn’t communication. That’s part of the problem too.

I think we're not adressing this issue properly here. Yes, over communicating is bad. But also, under communicating is bad. Depends a lot on the intent and the feelings behind it. Im sorry but if you leave me on read for 12h but you're active on other social medias that's not it. Also, if you're someone who talks a lot, find yourself someone who also talks a lot. I'm not gonna start feeling bad dor being a yapper, I communicate a lot when I feel safe and it's not me putting pressure on someone it's just me being me. There are levels to this and you are not a burden just because you like to chat. Everyone needs to do a little introspection and understand what's an actual need and what's a trauma response.

HannahLanaBanana :
Anytime I start talking to someone I immediately turn off read receipts. Immediately disable location sharing wherever they might be able to see it if its on. I cut out anything that can promote monitoring behavior early on because I dont tolerate people feeling entitled to my time. I don’t like texting and calling and face timing all day. I have a very simple “go to work come home” schedule but I dont tolerate being timed on it “youve been home for an hour and you haven’t responded.” Nope because I need to decompress. Entitlement to a response always leads to monitoring behavior and I just cant tolerate it. Knowing myself ill get real nasty once I feel like I’m on a timer with someone.
