Studies show, guys who send GM texts are also texting 5 other girls. Guys, is this true or false?

Question

TheMadLad · Accepted Answer

I never gave my ex good morning texts and I don’t cheat. you do know surveys are bullshit most of the time!

jshm2 · Accepted Answer

What big mac meal did those idiots who did the study, get their degrees from?

Rosexøxø · Answer

It really is. It means they’re on a schedule and it also means that they need someone out of the many to send him nudes for his morning wood. He’s a strategic one.

Avicenna · Answer

No doubt it's true for lots of guys. We already know women do the same thing.

OlderAndWiser · Answer

I would like to see the purported source for this statistic. It sounds like a total fabrication.

Genie23 · Answer

True in some cases but I don't think most guys would have time to make that of efforts to get a girl. 😅

ManOnFire · Answer

Absolutely false. If anything, the guys who send GM texts are the ones who don't cheat because it's the kind of text that a clingy man might send regularly.

Summeroflove · Answer

Well. Sometimes it is but there is another percentage that doesn’t. Some people need NEED attention. So they will get it from as many as possible

AviatorTom · Answer

I wouldn't know. I've never sent a good morning text.

Toxic how? People on dating apps in general, that appear very attentive and interested, are usually the ones who take dating far more seriously and want to find the right partner soon. They can double, tripple, quadruple, ..., Their chances by chatting with multiple people.

From observations: It's a man's job to make the lady feel special and safe to be herself, which could be seen as manipulative or misleading, but that's certainly not the intention behind it. Girls wait for that feeling, when the guy makes them feel special and they're don't analyzing the guy, before showing their authentic side. While men usually rock a more "what you see is what you get" approach and be more authentic from day 1. Men care more about not wasting their time, while women care more about making good impressions.

Once you two are officially dating, I know of some girls who finish the chats with the other guys to make sure she's not making the wrong decision, but not heard of a single man who'd continue using the dating app (s) after, unless he's starting to fall out of love. Having said that, my sample pool isn't nearly big enough to conclude this holds true always and everywhere.

As for me personally, until we are officially dating, we are not exclusive. So if you ask me, it'd be weirder to pretend that we are.

Investigator · Answer

The question being asked is "is a guy who says 'good morning' also flirting with and texting 5 other girls?", but the implied question is "is courtesy a front for playership?"

What would it mean to say that it's false? "No, a guy who says 'good morning' is being mindful of one person and one person only." Conversely, if it's true, then "every guy who is mindful of his partner is just putting on a front of faithfulness and playing the field." My guess is it's somewhere in between. Increasing numbers of men are single and sexless, so that means either they have no prospects or are actively trying to court someone and failing. Therefore, the remaining guys are having most of the success and those are the men to whom this question applies. Certainly, it's not related to the unsuccessful men who are failing to find a mate, short or long-term--that is a given.

Are those men engaging in this behavior? Probably, and why wouldn't they? They have very little competition and know they are in high demand, so really they are working with numbers. It's the difference between a Wall Street day trader at a massive hedge fund, operating large-scale options trades with multiple millions of dollars as leverage, and some random guy on r/wallstreetbets, who fancies himself the next DeepF*ckingValue, trying desperately to "diamond hands" $10k worth of TSLA stock "to the moon", all while the market has largely moved on.

Red-Blaze · Answer

"Study show..." is always false
Studys may point to an option but it has a lot more to do with it, like where was it asked? who was asked?
I mean did they call out pepole to come in going with "If you date more then one girl at a time we looking for you"
Then ask them if they text GM?

Its always click bait

HawkPerception · Answer

The truth is, everyone who posts "I don't do that" on here could be lying and polls aren't exactly the most accurate source of data either. I believe that nowadays, dating through all these dating apps, most people (not just men) like keeping their options open until they're sure of someone. So it makes sense that some people message 5 girls or guys good morning. I think it's actually okay to do unless you're exclusive. Once you're in an official relationship with a person though, that should all go out the window and you should fully commit.

DamianTheSmikkelbeer · Answer

Perhaps there’s a truth to it because the general assumption is that guys who send a “GM” texts are thinking about you & care about you and so fuckboys and such will use it aswell since women love attention, however i dislike the terming of “men who send good morning texts are 89% more likely to be texting it to 5 other females” because for 1) that literally imposes to and 2) it’s a study that’s from tiktok, very credible whaha.

I think guys on dating-sites and such are probably more likely to do it, yes. But i truly think that the vast majority of guys truly think about you when they send it, especially when they mention your name in it

D_Bone_Steak · Answer

Not me personally, but my room mate back in the day would literally text 8 different girls some bullshit all at once. He told me it's like a numbers game... a few of them will respond and be interested and then he'll just pick his favorites. The other ones he didn't pick, he will tell them he got sick or some bullshit. The ones that didn't respond will get a guilt trip sent their way about how he missed them all night.

It worked for him. He always had a girl over and he was always banging.

I had my 3 main girlfriends I cycled through and I would just do hookers if they were not available. Playing all those head games with women is just too much work for me. Hookers kept things simple for me. I pay them, I get off, and I'm back to playing video games. Keep it simple.

Lionman95 · Answer

I would say no. Because if a guy sends a good morning text he does so because he thinks of that particular woman at that moment or he has already a personal connection to her. Since I don´t know of many guys that are sending good morning texts.
I´d like to see the study that shows that especially how many guys participated in it.

Knighted2170 · Answer

It is true for some guys.

I was used to do this a lot in my days of not caring who I hurt. Or, who I manipulated. Then, I learned my lesson in a very tragic way.

I now only send a good morning text to the woman whom I have a serious relationship with. If we are just dating, then there no GM texts. Some things just need to be reserved to remain special between the two of us.

chrissykerdock · Answer

well a guy i was texting everyday i didn't even make his top 5 list when someone asked his 5 favorite girls on gag... otherwise a girl would have no way to know plus it's not like we have a personal relationship with anyone we text on here... there's really no one who impressed me either... which only makes it true how hard it is to find someone.

DubiousIntentions · Answer

Why not? Don't people on dating sites talk to multiple people? You don't always put all your eggs in one basket. The more people you talk to, the better your chances for success. This goes for both guys and gals. For instance, here are some of the ones I talked to. Too bad their personalities were a little flat in the end.

abc3643 · Answer

What "studies"? I think that's a bunch of horseshit because no entity on Earth would waste money funding a study about males sending "Good Morning" texts.

I think the whole thing is bullshit and that that's a graphic created as a troll.

Adam1978 · Answer

Can't speak for other guys but not true for me. If I am in the state I send regular good morning text, I don't have five other women, I do that too. But I am not the guy that would do that as an habit. Ie send good morning texts. You need to share breakfast with me to get the whole good morning routine.

Lynx122 · Answer

I think it's a weird causality the way this is phrased. I think people who are playing others like to adapt their behavior to be similar to people who are actually genuine. So someone who is trying to hide their true nature is gonna send good morning texts so that when the woman notices some of the bad signs she won't immediately realize what kind of person he is. But it doesn't mean that every guy who says good morning to a woman he likes is trying to play her.

ObscuredBeyond · Answer

I don't usually send a good morning text. Maybe once in a while, a "hey, you got a free moment?" text.

Texting is usually to inform coworkers of what's going on.

"There's no mop water formula. What would you suggest?"

"So and such from agency q is here. What should I tell him?"

I rarely get to text anyone romantically. And it wouldn't be a routine boring "good morning" text. I like to put in more heart than that.

Isaacwn · Answer

Sorry, statistician here, you should go through your due diligence, check the methodology. I don’t even know what study this came from, and it would be interesting to see their work before you give an answer to something like this. Plus, you can’t get an answer like this from anyone else besides those who actually do this. If that’s the case, do they represent the average individual?

Stoner710 · Answer

Single guys yes. It is called a dating pool. You guys are in a relationship to not be doing this. we put all of our effort into one girl. There are so many factors that could happen like she could get a boyfriend she could not actually be interested in us it’s better to have five options than one and once we start a relationship with one of them eliminate the other four

Legendarylegacy13 · Answer

It could go either way it depends on what you to text about or the direct relationship. So unless it's a type of relationship where that would be inappropriate I think that would be fine but if you take it that seriously maybe you feel like you should be the only one...

Mangospacho · Answer

There’s no way this was a real study because it would’ve taken decades to find 1,000 guys to survey who actually send good morning texts. It’s probably more like a woman got cheated on by a guy who would constantly send her good morning texts and now it’s an epidemic.

MysteriousDarkness · Answer

1. How was the study done? Calling into a radio show, answering a question on a website, someone asking questions in person in one city etc.
2. How many guys were involved in the study?
3. What ages were the guys?
4. What kind of life style do the guys have?

mommymommymommy · Answer

If he's using your name, it's less likely he is such as "good morning rachel" or something like that. However, at the same time, he may know 3 rachels.

TO be fair women are probably doing the same though. Gotta love that "guys and girls can be friends", excuse, right? LMAO

shortster · Answer

Depends on if we are dating or not. If we are dating, I am only sending you a good morning text. If we aren't I am sending up to 15 other women the same text; waiting for one of you to agree to a date. Or prove yourself to be a scammer. 99.999999999999999999999999999999999999999999995% of the time it is the latter.

Spongebobssocks · Answer

Loll problaby true but if you haven't claimed him its on you. I dont think it needs to mean much but I don't know maybe I'm wrong.. it depends I guess

WanderingLoveWizard · Answer

I couldn't talk to 5 other girls even if I wanted to.
I don't know what kind of lady killing studs are out there doing that, but for most guys it's hard enough to get the attention of one, let alone 6 lol

Curmudgeon · Answer

"The Apex Fallacy" of women is illustrated here: Yes, for those men who all the women are purusing, this is the case. But for the vast majority of men, not at all.

Justaguyagain · Answer

I don't believe this is an actual study, but i also belive that if someone is texting you "good morning" every single freaking day, he probably does it with more people.

MementoMori777 · Answer

Depends if I see the same effort from them that I put in, because I'd be a fool to reject other women that might be interested just cause I'm interested in someone that pays no attention to me, I've had moments where I was at that stage and they weren't showing the same efforts, they would leave me on R or kill the conversation for then to leave me feeling like a fool so if there's no commitment and they aren't putting the same effort they shouldn't feel a type of way if I'm speaking to others.

Paul_in_Indy · Answer

If you want to hook up with girls, it takes a lot of work and hustle. You must be working on multiple girls all the time —until you find someone (if that’s what you want).

RavVid · Answer

I made a guestimate in an answer to another question that a guy could probably manage 5 girls in a texting relationships. So I would think that very likely.

BoobMan · Answer

I'll tell you something even WORSE! The other day I saw someone at work say "good morning" TO SOMEONE'S FACE and then they had the GAUL to say "good morning" to OTHER PEOPLE TOO! Can you believe that?

Steelcore5280 · Answer

Currently, I'm only talking to one woman. I send her good morning texts, and I don't do that to anyone else. So maybe I'm part of the 11% not doing that, but I have a feeling that "statistic" we are talking about is a bunch of crap.

Rangers · Answer

I'd like to see those studies, cause I always send good morning texts to my girlfriend and I don't talk to anyone else

If we had it my way, I wouldn't have to come in any kind of contact with anyone else in the world

UnknownSwede · Answer

You mean that guys talk to more than one girl at once? If they don't have a partner and they don't lie to anyone, I don't see any problem with it. No matter if its a girl or a guy that talk to more than one person at once.

exitseven · Answer

i do not think there is any basis to believe this,

Sarahr123 · Answer

If it is your boyfriend and he doesn’t follow other girls on SM or have female friends then no. If it is just a boy you’re talking to then yes.

annabananna · Answer

I’ve always assumed the good morning was copy and pasted and sent many girls. That and heyyyyyyyyy

KrakenAttackin · Answer

Fucking hell, how can any man tolerate more than one woman at a time?

Daddy_Satoru · Answer

If I send Good Morning, you are important. I don't even talk to my mom in the morning. Also Pro Tip: Don't believe random bs on TikTok.

SlothySlob · Answer

GM? Game Master? 5 other girls? I mean, it's better to play D&D with bigger numbers, but only girls? Fucker hogging them for himself.

Walt832 · Answer

I never send Good morning text from friends to my customers 😂, sh*t not even my parents. Sooooo I don't know where they get this study 😂.

itsalyssaagain · Answer

I mean for once I'm not bothered cause none of my boyfriends were consistent sending me GM texts lmao

PhenomenalQueen · Answer

I agree because I’ve heard it from many different people.

Nikki1989 · Answer

I am sure that is true for a lot of guys.

Jman001 · Answer

This is true but we have to. Women get men so easily they don’t even have to try. As men we have to compete with other dudes so we can’t put all our eggs in 1 basket because chances are we’ll end up losing.

Jennz6 · Answer

Women sometimes send me a Good Morning text, not just guys

StormChaser838 · Answer

Sorry Pinay, I am a very bad texter, hate to text people unless I am forced to.

Ms_Facesitter · Answer

I think it's true. Not that the guys are flirts. Maybe it's in their nature to tell the people they know good morning.

BCA6010 · Answer

Uh huh...  When it sounds like bullshit, it's probably bullshit.

razelove · Answer

Nonsense, I only send them to two women I'm with :p

If we’re gonna go with this, then consider girls will also text 5 other guys or so too. Goes both ways
