Guys: Do you like your woman to be less available to you so you miss her OR always available showing she's stable and reliable? Any other way?

I've been watching quite a lot of relationship videos and they all tell women not to be too available all the time. Don't answer his text messages right away. Give the guy a chance to miss you. But that sounds more like game playing to me because it's done on purpose.🤷🏼‍♀️Is this what guys really want?

Or would you rather her be reachable for you and have her there so you can reach her and not get voicemail or leave a text message and have to wait for her to get back to you whenever?

Or is there something else you prefer?

That is a very good question. It depends on the couple and the situation. Sometimes it just isn’t feasible to reply and other times. You may not feel that it just isn’t important enough to respond right away.

@sage2021. The flip side is. There are many fish in the ocean. Keep each other waiting too long. There could be another one biting at the bait.

Exactly 💯 - people shouldn't play games especially with their cell phones

Thank you for the MHO!

I want her under me constantly.

That not answering leads to fighting.

@Dongie
I'm trying to figure out why all of these videos, no matter who is narrating it, continue to reinforce to tell women not to be too available, don't answer his messages but take a day or so before you answer him because this gives him time to miss you and it will give him the idea of making him wonder what you could be doing.🙄
This might be a new way of how to have a great relationship in 2025.
I'm with you on this because it does lead to arguments.
I guess one size fits all doesn't apply to this

Been there and did not like it.

This only works in game relationships that won't ever be serious cause one is just not fully interested in long term.

Those he wants the girl there when ever and won't miss her unless she can't be there.

It's a silly game that does not work on healthy relationships

I think it’s nice to have your partner available most of the time. Playing games works for some people, but I guess I’m too old for it now.

Well she is my wife so I kind of see her every day. When we were first dating I suppose I saw her about 2 days a week, maybe 3. We went to the same church so I usually always saw here Sunday on top of if we went out once or twice.
