When you start talking to a guy/dating, should you text daily or sometimes?

[Sugar100]

I’ve never had a boyfriend, so I never texted a guy daily 24/7 . The one guy I dated used me as friends with benefits and we would text daily but sometimes go days without texting. I got used to that life and began see it as normal now with new guys I meet online.

I’ve texted a few guys from dating apps recently all claiming they want a serious relationship suppsovivly, and I text them back all day but then they get mad as I’m not texting enough or fast enough. I can’t drive? Do errrnads, cook, eat? Sleep? Work? I can’t text 24/7. I’m not used to this.
im used to my phone having 0 messages all day. And I do work a lot. I can’t be glued to my phone and they get mad and think I’m not serious and bye bye they say. 😔

A consistent baseline matters more than texting every single day.

As long as the effort feels mutual, the pace usually finds its own rhythm.

Some days you talk a lot, some days a little, what matters is that both people stay connected without forcing it.

With my ex I held off intentionally not to be to clingy. Later she revealed she hated that period and wished I had just been myself and gone all in. So just do whats natural to you and see if your person is compatible with that. If it doesn't work for either of you but there is real interest it will just be brought up and figured out.

Everyone gets mad and ends things as I’m
Not texting fast enough it’s stupid I’ll y guys on dating apps r like that

[Sugar100]

These r guys I never met in real life but I’m not passing the test of not texting enough

To be fair that works in your favor right? If all the impatient controlling ones reveal themselves so quickly you know who not to keep dating. I dont mind fluctuating frequency myself at all, I also need time for myself. The only thing that drives me crazy as I have been cheated on that way is if you were to make an appointment with me like "Give me 1 hour and then we can spend some time" and then don't show up without notice. I dont mind if she'd need more time but then I should be told so I am not waiting.

Try to reply quick as much as possible, whenever you are busy just tell I will chat later, or I'm sleeping, catch you soon.

As long as the efforts are mutual I don't mind. But if replies are very slow, she doesn't inform or replies after 3-4 days or a week guys can be annoyed with that.

If you can't stay away from each other then it's all the time.

[Sugar100]

The guys I like they don’t talk to me daily. Only the guys I don’t like r the ones that want talk 24/7 and I have no interest. Never had a guy love me back and it’s multual and we r in love

[Summeroflove]

Don’t be obnoxious but show interest as well

I believe you should only text them when setting up a date. I'm not a fan of the daily texting if we're not in a relationship. But do whatever works for you.

I talk to them daily... in person

[yulingrrrrrr]

I feel you babe
