My guy friend won’t stop texting me and I need to rest? Why can’t people let me rest if I’m sick?

[Anonymous]

He keeps asking what kind of chocolate or flowers do I like. I didn’t answer until 2 hours later which is now because I’m cranky and exhausted.
i told him dark chocolate and sunflowers and why? He said, “Just wondering”

Then he is asking what I’m doing for Valentine’s Day and he’s hoping I’m busy. He asks me every year and I keep telling him we’re just friends and please let me rest. I’m sick, cranky and I need to rest.
He texted me again saying if he can talk to me tomorrow about next weekend. I told him no because I’m busy next weekend.
im trying to push away but he keeps jumping in and has been constraint in texting me everyday. We have been friends since we were like 8 and now we’re 29. I want to rest!

Dating is difficult enough and guys I liked rejected me and nowadays no guy will even look at me. I never get the man I want. I’m not the best looking girl and neither is my friend. We’re both chubby and unfit. It seems like my fit friends always get fit or cute boyfriends. I get interested in a guy and my guy friend always jumps in and says I’m his girlfriend and I get so angry at him. I don’t want him

Is there some sort of hidden obligation to have these text messages conversations or are you just that unable to not respond? It’s so interesting to me when people such as yourself act as if there’s no other choice. You don’t have to keep replying, if you want rest then freaking have it.

Turn your phone off or, better still, disable messaging altogether.

He's probably planning to get you chocolates and flowers for Valentine's Day and why he asked. I suggest you stop replying to him quickly, or at all, if all he does is annoy you. Also don't tell him about guys you are interested in so he can't jump in.

We’ll I told him I’m busy and my best friend is telling me, “Are you THIS sense? Don’t you understand what he’s doing? He is getting your attention. He LIKES YOU. No…. HE IS IN LOVE WITH YOU! He wants you to be his girlfriend and his woman! Why do you think he’s been doing that for 18 years? He’s WAITED 18 years for you to notice his behavior and crush in him! He has it BAD for you! Why do you think he asked you if you liked chocolate or what flowers you like? He’s probably planning a surprise for you! He is HIGH OVER HEELS FOR YOU GIRL! WAKE UP!”

I agree with your friend's opinion. I think you need to tell him to stop so he can move on with his life and find someone that wants a serious relationship with him.

[Asker]

I already did tell him but he won’t listen

[bowenw]

You may have to block him if he won't leave you alone.

[Asker]

He’s not a bad person it’s just that he won’t give other women a chance

[bowenw]

Can you help him find another woman?

[bowenw]

Thank you for the MHO. 😊

[uzumymw]

Just stop replying to him if you need to rest and reply back to him once you have rested

He can be patient and if he can't that's his problem

[Asker]

That’s what I’m going to do. Thank you

[uzumymw]

Good luck!
And enjoy your rest when you need it

[Asker]

Thank you

Too sick to send a text, but not too sick to post on GAG 🤔

Put your phone on silent.
