but you see the problem is the same for us! we need to feel that you like us too and that its not just us making the effort. if I were to text a girl first all the time and she never sent a text to me first, then I would feel that she didn't like me. for girls, they get a confidence boost, when guys text them! for guys, they get a confidence boost, when girls text them! so you should text each other first EQUALLY so that you both stay happy.

I know I'm a guy and you addressed this to girls, but I'll offer just one word of advice: text a girl when YOU want to, when you feel like it, without worrying about timing or convention. You be your own man, and let your relationships be on YOUR terms. Any smart, secure girl would appreciate that kind of confidence from a guy.
Better yet, forget texting. Call her.
Best of luck.
because it shows interest in us. they don't have to text us first all the time just at least half the time. we like feeling thought of and knowing that they're thinking of us. for me when a certain guy texts me first I can't help but smile and get all warm and fuzzy inside. sometimes I get the chills.
I prefer when the guy text me first cause for some stupid reason I go into this weird girl place in my mind that says, I'm being to needie, I just texted him the other day, he's probably busy. Plus when guys text me first I know they want to talk to me
I reallyy like it when the guys text first because like everyone said, it shows us he's interested and is thinking about uss and that makes us happyy :P It also shows he has confidence but sometimes I text the guy first also .. why not?:P

and it shows me that the guys is thinking abput meI prefer the guy texting me first. It shows me that he was thinking about me or wanted to talk to me. I don't care when it is or what I'm doing.. just text me. It says a lot. Besides, I don't want to text first because I feel like I'm being clingy or annoying or something.
I don't want to annoy them. So I rather they text me first.
But I really don't care, and I will text them sometimes.Yes definitely but if it's a lot and just to say "hey" at first then it can get annoying even if I kinda like the guy...
if I like the guy then yes I would Love for him to text me first =)
i really don't care. lol. I don't play games in relationships, if I want to contact him I will and vise versa.
of course we like the boy to text first because its just a girl thing or that we don't want to annoy them, and we think its cute. trust us we won't think its annoying if we like you.
I love it when guys text/msg me first. So it doesn't seem that I'm the only one interested in having a conversation. :)
