Am I paranoid?

[jacobperth]

@justlove856

I think your paranoid. You need to slow down and relax. If you haven't already scared this guy away, your heading there. Give him a chance to miss you and allow a day or two to lapse before texting. Not everybody enjoys texting, and most men you will find get a little turned off texting everyday several times a day, some dont most do.

I would assume he may enjoy your company when you two are together but not so much with the texting. I could imagine he would be quite put off and confused. You should give him a break, let him wonder what your doing, wonder why you havnt texted him for a couple of days, if your always texting eachother the conversation can die, and you may find you have nothing new to talk about when together. Completly kills social bonding.

Don't text him for a while. You can't always be availible.

A guy that texts me everyday would be annoying.
Worst thing you could do is talk to him about your paranoia.
Its going to make you look needy, demanding and whiny.

Best thing to do is let it go, stop thinking so much about little things and think about the bigger picture. don't take every little sign negativly. Just don't worry about it and let it play itself out.

So is the actual object of this thread to be a daily blog about whether you've txtd one another?

You've apparently managed to ignore any of the actual advice you've received; it raises the image of you standing with your fingers in your ears yelling lalalalalalalalalalalala.

I hate to be the one to break the news but I suspect that the vast majority of people here aren't going to care if your twitterpal is playing games or not.

What an incredibly sterile relationship you've established with this guy. I will say it again. Throw your txty machine against the wall. Develop your friendships and relationships in real space and real time.

Buddy-- you are not listening to anyone in this thread.

Seriously, out of respect for HIM and yourself, stop texting him. Just give it a few days, stop being needy because it will for sure scare him away. Get on with your life and maybe he will get back to you or wonder "Hmmm haven't heard from him. Maybe I'll give him a ring!".

jacobperth's post above sums it up best, and very sensitively at that.

Stop texting him so much, really. This will drive people insane and eventually they will cringe every time they get a text from you. I have a story about this which taught me a lesson to never overdo texting or calling someone else,

About a year ago I ran into someone from high school who I haven't seen in since graduation. He gave me his phone number and I perceived some flirting (key word here is "perceived") I called him to get together. He was busy. I called him again a few days later. Still busy. Ok...

Then I texted him, way too many times and he was probably regretting ever giving his number to me. If I ever see him again I'm going to apologize to him.

Lesson learned, stop being needy and let them come to you.

Texting has really made many in our generation impatient, addicted to tech gadgets and unable to read more than 150 characters. I'm 23 years old and I love tech gadgets as much as everyone else but when it comes to communicating; call me or talk face to face. A lot of communication is left out when texting, even emailing.

Stop texting him. Give him some space. I know you don't want it to seem like you're not interested but he already knows you're very interested in him. Let him call you if he's interested and stop over analyzing everything. Otherwise this is going to happen with every guy you meet.

I feel i shouldn't have to compromise to be in a relationship...if you are so busy that you can't talk or text at all at any time of the day you don't need to be in a relationship....with anyone.

And the thread ends. No, you're not paranoid, you're young and selfish, and you don't know anything yet.

Get back to us when you have a few more years under your belt about the paranoid thing.

Coffee anyone?

 

[rareboy]

Whatever.

I'll have a grande mocha latte espresso con crema with cinnamon and chocolate sprinkle on top.

 

[TX-Beau]

Why don't you try a slice of my Mama's famous pecan pie with that.

^ Sounds...decadent.

I'll stick with my scones. With jam and devonshire cream, natch.

I will compromise on certain things but not on communication...So is it ok to go days without talking to the person your "in love with". If your ok with having a non communicative relationship go right ahead...but juslove ain't havin it lol..if that makes me selfish so be it.

'In love with'??? I thought you said you were getting to know the guy?

 

[Reality101]

There are some assholes in this thread wow

Annnnyway, op if he said he was too busy to text you back and he's been spotty on getting back with you and not calling then one of two things is happening 1. he really is too busy 2. he's losing interest in you. I'm leaning on the fact that he's losing interest in you based on your posts but good luck. I hope I'm wrong.

A lot of people have raised good points about cell phones and texting. I for one hate both and avoid them at all cost, HOWEVER, no need to be bitches about it guys. Come on, he asked for advice and help and you pretty much jump down his throat and highlight how lame/stupid/idiotic/ridiculous he is (unabashedly I might add) I know it's fun to bitch and point out how stupid people are but grow up. Seriously. And if the guy is so stupid, why respond to him over and over again??? Okay I'm done. Bleh.

 

[rareboy]

My God those scones look good.

Should I make more scones?

Lex

 

[PolterGUYst]

I'm sorry to tell you this, but if you keep this up you are only going to drive him away and you will feel horrible about it afterwards.

It's harsh, but it needs to be said (if it hasn't been already).

 

[G-Lexington]

...yep, more scones.
