Wanted to text a guy the night I got home because I liked him so much. ALL my friends and family said not to and I didn’t listen. That was 13 years ago, and we are celebrating our 11th wedding anniversary Saturday. Send the text! 🥰

Ok but at the same time. You’re 2 for 2 with texting first. He needs to text first at some point.

Ok, but also talk to him about why he doesn’t start the conversations… or are you ok initiating forever?

I think if you all decide to go on another date, possibly a conversation on communication preferences or expectations might be good. Just don’t ALWAYS be the one to reach out first over and over.

My husband once told me that us girls have no clue how nerve wracking it is for them to be the one to do the approach. To prepare for the rejection. To be the one to be instigating. So you're correct. They also get nervous. Worried. All the things. We're all just humans trying to get by. 🫶🏻. Great job taking the lead! No matter the outcome.

I told my husband on our first date to delete all dating apps because he was done looking. He did immediately and bought me a ring 3 months later 😅

Great decision! I don’t see what the big deal is. At least you’ll know one way or the other, instead wondering if he’s interested or not

Don't over think it. Date how you want to. I've been with my husband for 12 years, I'm pretty sure I initiated all contact during our early dating stage. I found out later he was super nervous because he found me to be smart/witty/funny and could talk a lot. So he didn't know if I would be interested in continuing. But he's all those things too, just in a quieter way.

Something that was SO refreshing when I first started seeing my husband is he straight up said that he wasn’t interested in either one of us playing games, but rather just doing what felt right. If we felt like texting the other, that’s just what we did 💕

I also think many people don't know how to do small talk. what do you nessage if you have nothing to message about. Just be yourself and enjoy the experience

Ugh I'm stuck between your perspective but also if he wanted to he would. Good luck!

Yup, the men shouldn’t be the ones who have to text and call first 🫶🏻 No rules, no games, if you’re interested in someone, tell them.

I might be jaded by a similar recent experience, but honestly, if he doesn't text you for that long, is he someone worth your energy? Again, just basing this off my own recent experience, but I'm also quick to say "next" till I find someone who matches my energy

Long distance is a challenge but not a game stopper. My now husband lived in Hawaii when we were dating. I was on the East Coast. And it was before FaceTime and when phone calls could bankrupt you! So it’s possible!!

Me and my fiancé might not be together if I hadn’t reached out to him first, he got my Snapchat and added me, he was going to wait 3-5 days before he messaged me, I messaged him that night and then it’s all history! Lol he said he was nervous
