Can you develop feelings for someone over text?

[Anonymous]

If you don't see each other every day anymore say for example you both are finished school now and carrying on with your life, do you think a girl aged 18-20 can develop feelings over text if they're introverted person who gets annoyed easily and likes their space?

[NyomiMcClinton]

Yes, I am more likely to develop feelings over text. But i had to stop that especially if I haven't met the person. This has happened to me where I would text a guy nonstop and when I meet him he doesn't look like his pictures. So I now do little texting and would prefer to meet in person before doing long drawn out texting.

But if she's more introverted and keeps to herself? She doesn't talk much to me but has her days where she will want to talk to me

[RaeSheBae]

Yes. I did in the past.
It's just a fantasy and excitement texting someone someone that you already have a crush on, or it's completely your type...
You imagine so many things and dream so much...
But then I real life can be awkward because people can be totally different than they seem to be when they text...

[Lelaila]

Yes. Look at online dating and how many longterm relationships have come from that.

[Asker]

True, but if the person isn't as talkative?

[Lelaila]

A person who is introverted, as that's what not talkative people are, can develop feelings too. Best way for them to chat is online.

[Asker]

Yeah but what if they only talk so little and only sometimes they talk a lot?

[Lelaila]

Then they're busy with things at the moments that they talk little.

[Asker]

Yeah true but what do I do? What can make her talk more

[Lelaila]

You can't make people talk more.

[Asker]

You could if I talk about things she finds interesting.

[Lelaila]

Yeah true. But you can't force them, that's what I meant.

[Asker]

I see yeah thanks again lelaila the best 😊🤗

[Lelaila]

You're welcome :)

[SolaSlahlvo9810]

Yes. Some girls can, and chances are very high with an introvert.

[Asker]

An introvert is someone who doesn't like socialising

[Asker]

How do I be friends with someone who doesn't like socialising? She wants to be friends but I don't know how

[SolaSlahlvo9810]

Just text her for long periods of time, tell her things you've never told anyone. If she starts falling for you, she'll want to start hanging out with just you for short periods of time. As she falls harder those short periods will become longer. I've experienced this myself, as I am introverted. I fell for my boyfriend over text

[Asker]

Oh cool, what if she doesn't like talking over text much as well, but only at some times. Wouldn't that attraction die down?

[SolaSlahlvo9810]

No, as long as you keep in with what she likes, you'll get somewhere. Introverts tend to like people more when their likes and dislikes are respected.

[Asker]

You mean talk about the things she likes talking about?

[SolaSlahlvo9810]

Yes, but also tell her what you want her to know about you. I mostly mean, talk to her when she wants to talk

[Asker]

But what if they get irritated easily and like their space?

[SolaSlahlvo9810]

Just ask her to let you know when she doesn't feel like talking anymore. She'll either be irritated that you think she doesn't want to talk to you or she'll appreciate you acomidating her needs

[piyush2997]

Well if you talk to her about her center of interests while chatting, then it might help

[Jemini_Crocket]

I think it's possible. It happened to a friend who's exactly like me (all introvert also like you described).
I think it depends on the person again. I need physical contact to develop feelings.

[alice55]

It happened to me, a guy who were texting me grow feelings for me the more we talked but I never grew feelings over text personally.

[victoriameliegray]

definitely possible. happening to me right now:)

[Asker]

Yeah but you're 14 years old

[Asker]

Older people tend to not

[victoriameliegray]

true. though i still feel like you can develop a connection/feelings with someone over the internet. But to actually have a relationship and develop those feelings into something more would need actual real life interaction

[lindseyrenee]

Yes, it's definitely possible :)

[matheus_mb]

Yes, I think it's definetely possible.

[vistabel]

R u reading out my life or something😳?
And yes

[Asker]

No, why what's good about that book?

[The_Empty]

Never happened to me

[Asker]

That's because you turned to the dark side

[elly91]

possibily...😊

[shaheensiddiqui]

yes you can

[Asker]

Did you read the description?

[shaheensiddiqui]

nope too lazy to read it but too eager to say literally anything

[Asker]

[shaheensiddiqui]
