Texting Your Man and He’s Not Responding? What You Can Do About It!
MEN ARE MORE LIKELY TO RESPOND WHEN MESSAGES ARE FLIRTY, FUN OR SEXY
We've all been there. We send a text to our man, and when he doesn't respond immediately, we start to freak out. Fear and insecurity take over, and we can't help but anxiously watch the time tick by. But before you blow up his phone, you should consider that there might be a reason why he's not texting you back.
According to men, here are some reasons why they might not respond to your texts:
He's busy - Busy in his eyes may not be the same as yours. He may be occupied with friends or football, but it doesn't mean he's not thinking about you.
He's not that into you - It might be hard to hear, but some guys just can't bring themselves to be upfront and honest.
The previous texts weren't clear - There may be a miscommunication where you expected an acknowledgement and he thought it was not necessary.
He's comfortable in the relationship - He might feel like he doesn't need to respond to every text or keep in touch with you as much as he did in the beginning.
He's feeling pressured - Don't keep texting if he isn't responding! It won't help the situation and will make him feel pressured.
But before you start to overthink, you should know that he might not put the same amount of importance on texting and staying in constant contact as you do. Here are some ways to take the pressure off of him and make him WANT to contact you:
Be playful - Don't get into a snit when he doesn't respond. Make your messages cute or funny if you want a response. When you're lighthearted and playful, it turns him on!
Be sexy - If you're in an intimate relationship, a little teasing message can go a long way. It doesn't need to be graphic or X-rated!
Give him space - When the pressure is off, he might miss the interaction and text or call you even more. Being needy is a turnoff to everyone.
Be positive - Send him a text or a response that is happy, upbeat and positive. That will make him desire more interaction.
Make it about him - Make the message about him if you must contact him. Something special you remembered about him, something endearing or sexy that will make him go back to fond memories.
Remember, it's not about the text messages. It's about the contact. So keep the contact with him light, fun, funny, positive, upbeat, sexy, and non-threatening. Especially if you've had difficult times together, but even if you're hopeful it will lead to something, pressure from you may cause him to flee. No pressure, just you being wonderful, charming, delightful, and desirable. Who could resist that?
As the famous quote goes, "Texting is a brilliant way to miscommunicate how you feel, and misinterpret what other people mean." So, take a deep breath, relax, and have fun with it!
