If a guy takes 10 to 15 Minuten to reply Even though He is Not busy, does this mean He is Not interested?

[Anonymous]

do men do this if they Are too polite to ghost someone to discourage the Girl from contacting him?

[ohsheeT]

First of all this must be happening to you because you have thought about everything except for one thing just ask him

When you think too much when you don't ask him when you assume that you're right on everything you just said that truth is only yours he could have went to the bathroom he could have got a phone call he might have remembered something he had to do you can't play all your scenarios in your head when you don't know the truth and then snap snap you want answers right now within 5 to 10 minutes and sometimes it just doesn't work that way

So maybe instead of getting inside your own head why don't when you're having a conversation with him say hey look if you have to do something in the middle of our conversation just let me know you're going to be doing that you're going to be gone for 5 or 10 minutes that way I'm not sitting around waiting for a reply


Because let's be honest when that kind of stuff happens you get into your own head and you start thinking of all these scenarios and then once you start that it's it's basically over because you're going to make up your mind on what he's doing whether it's the truth or not and once you go there then no matter what he says he's doing you're going to disagree with him LOL

So instead of breaking your own heart by all the things that you're thinking why don't you just ask him and let it happen if it's going to happen it will happen if it's not going to happen you'll know it within a few days and he might get back a hold of you I know for me I could be doing nothing in one minute and the next thing I know I have 20 things I've got to do because everybody's just called me at the same time I mean I don't know I say don't look at it so harsh don't beat yourself up by thinking of all the things that could be going on and answering yourself just ask him let him tell you listen to his words he will tell you everything in his words and this what he doesn't say is the part you want to listen to

There is no definitive answer to this question, as it depends on the individual man and the situation. However, if a man is consistently taking a long time to respond to your messages, it may be a sign that he is not interested. If you are unsure, it is always best to ask him directly.

Alternatively, he may be trying to play hard to get, or may simply be busy and not able to respond right away.

Here are some other signs that a man may not be interested:

• He cancels plans at the last minute.
• He doesn't make an effort to get to know you better.
• He doesn't compliment you or make you feel special.
• He seems more interested in other people or things.

If you are seeing any of these signs, it may be time to move on. There are plenty of other men out there who will appreciate you and make you feel special.

Do men really play Hard to Get By answering Late?

@asker
Guys don't play hard to get AT ALL.

So the guy I like isn’t big into texting and he even admits it. Shit I don’t like texting. Clingy guys are one thing as no matter the time of day they will respond within 30 seconds. To me make it look a little busy. Wait 5 minutes for all I care. But that’s just me. Don’t worry about 10-15 minutes. Guys aren’t big texters.

10 to 15 mins is a blessing compared to people who take an hour or hours to reply when they’re not busy. Those are the people I’d consider to be uninterested. At the same time, I have a bad short term memory and forget to text back so its best people call me instead

[Asker]

He Took Hours to reply and He wasn't busy

[DizzyDesii]

It only becomes unacceptable when this carries on more often than not. You need to express to him early on that you would like more consistent texting that doesn't take hours to reply. Also let him know if you prefer texting or phone calls. If he can't meet these preferences by the end of this week, drop him

[provokeesmokee]

Jesus, 10-15 mins?

Did you know jobs usually last from 4-12h in a day? Sometimes more?

Or that sleeping is often recommended to take 7.5-8h?

I don't think you're ready for a relationship. Therapy? Absolutely. Relationship? Not yet.

The most important quality to look for in a man is how quickly he responds to your texts. Nothing else matters.

Of course, if it was IMPORTANT, you could actually dial his phone and have a voice-to-voice conversation with him, but I assume you are too afraid to do that.

[AllAloneInTheWorld]

Some people aren't big on texting, but rather prefer face to face or over the phone conversations. 10 to 15 minutes is not that bad at all to wait for a text, regardless if they are busy or not.

[Anonymous]

No. That doesn't necessarily mean anything. A guy can actually take a long time because he's interested. We KNOW how judgmental women are and how they'll dissect everything you say. So I guy can just as easily take a while to respond because he's composing his response.

[BoopBoopBeep]

Wow you are needy AF if you're complaining someone takes 10-15 minutes. Maybe he's multitasking

[stepyo99]

You need to find a hobby. Something to keep yourself occupied so you aren't obsessing over how long it takes a guy to respond to you. Try learning to cook or sew, both are really great hobbies.

[itsalyssaagain]

10 to 15 mins….. you must be joking. Sis I’ve been in situations where I waited 2 weeks 😂 and he was my boyfriend.


You’re fine.

[Asker]

Yes but we Are in a Talking Stage

[itsalyssaagain]

It’s fine…I’d say if it’s more than a few hours and he doesn’t apologise and give an explanation then I’d think about it

[Asker]

Well now its been a few Hours

[itsalyssaagain]

Alright we’ll he will eventually reply. When he does he might have a reason for it. Hear him out. If he doesn’t, you could just say “what you been up to today?”

If it continues and it bothers you I’d say it’s not worth it. Been there done that. They don’t change.

[spartan55]

Good lord... it means guys hate texting and you are overthinking.

[Vegasrunner]

If a guy is replying w/in 15 minutes probably means he has nothing else going on.

[TracyF]

No they don't do this to ghost you. We just get distracted or need to take longer to think of a reply.

[kakaling]

I don't constantly check on my phone, I am highly insensitive to the phone volume and vibration.

[justabuddy]

I don't think soo... maybe he's just formulating a response. Maybe he's not use to texting that much in a day. He may have gotten sidetracked with something. He responded, that's a good sign.

[LiamJHayden]

How do you know he is not busy?

[Wise4myage]

If a girl did that to me, Id be pissed off.

[Pohjolan]

Please he isn't your private secretary 24/7.

[In_Trance]

no, it means he's busy

[Jamie05rhs]

It probably means he has ADD.
