What stops you from double texting someone who keeps leaving you on read?

[Anonymous]

So this guy & I are supposed to be friends, he told me months ago that he deleted all photos and videos in his gallery, which included me. I felt like trash but he said it so casually I thought he was oblivious. It doesn't erase the feeling, so if I show him anything with me in it, I delete it for everyone after I see it's read. Well, he said, i didn't delete stuff and I kinda brushed over it. Now weeks later... we're texting and in the last text he sent he told me he was in another state no other details. He didn't respond to my reply so I double texted and sent him a video of what I did that day. He liked it and then I deleted it
I sent a part 2 and went to sleep
He saw it and didn't say or do anything and I deleted it...
He hasn't responded in 2 days
So yeah I started feeling like he's mad that im deleting stuff, but he also has a habit of texting whenever he wants and leaving mid conversation
And im not gonna be the one left on read again
Either way, im still waiting for a response, but texting him would show the power balance is in his favor

**** I already know this is quite toxic, but it's pissin' me off, and i know im in a loop

You're not in a loop you just ended that Loop


No process that Loop and what does it tell you it tells you you have boundaries that's it you do not want to be treated the way you being treated so now you have to be honest with yourself and deal with it


This is what it's all about Is that the love that you have for this person you have to understand Is the love that you have for yourself Of course he can come into your life you can do things together He can open up those doors within you To let out those new energies emotions And you feel those and when you feel those you think that's love and you think you love him so you can't lose him That's why you're angry

Because you know the difference of love and somebody that's just using you

When people come into our lives when we go out we start new things do things together and you feel so happy with this person it's because that person came into your life and opened up some doors inside of you and whatever come out of the stores that happiness that love that is yours you're the only one that can make you feel anything on the inside it wasn't him you just came into your life that was it he helped you open up doors by doing new things and when you felt all that energy and emotion that happens when those doors were open you're looking at that as if it's love and he's giving it to you it's not it's love and you're giving it to yourself you're experiencing something new

So you have to love yourself and you have to understand that you have to have confidence within yourself and you have to understand that nobody can make you feel anything except for you because nobody else is on the inside of you except for you

So first of all you have to understand love Is inside of you and how deep it is and how much you love yourself Because that's what it's all about in the end anyway

When you love yourself and your confident you can do anything in this world and nobody can hold you back you put up boundaries and you stick to them if somebody crosses the boundary you walk away you don't sit there and think it's going to get better because it's not and that's the part that hurts but you have to be strong enough to understand that it might sound cold but you have to walk away it's not cold it's protecting yourself we're only on this planet for so much time don't waste it when you love yourself you will attract so many different guys it's unreal but then that's when you have to be able to read them and understand who's good and who's not good for you

So don't double text him don't do anything if a guy treats you the way he's treating you walk away let him come after you let him prove to you who he is it's not the other way around

Must be mad at you or though with you
he deleted everything
Why double texting

No he asked if I had anything. If I could send it over again.

Easy, I have messaging disabled on my phone so people can't play those games with me. I am also very selective over who has my number and who doesn't.

He’s inconsistent, deletes you, leaves you on read, pops up when he wants. That’s not friendship, that’s breadcrumbing with a side of emotional chaos.

What stops you from double texting? Self‑respect. Mute him, stop sending proof-of-life videos, and let him chase you or fade out. Either way, you win.
