Whenever you miss him.
Give your answer to this question below!

Never. text messaging is stupid.
for me its ok as long as both of you are replying
do NOT text him again if he doesnt reply
once a day for 1 hour max. you want him to come to you!
Wait for him to text you back. If it becomes like a whole night(5-6 hours) then maybe I would give him a call or text him. If he stops, then he’s busy.
dont worry about it. text whenever you want just dont get upset at him for not answering. NEVER question him about not talking to you.
Text him once maybe every 3 days, and wait for him to text back. You want to seem unavailable, because it’ll make him chase you. If you guys are taking time to get to know each other before you go out, this means he could get to know OTHER girls as well. Trust me, no matter how much you think he probably won’t see other girls, you have to be careful. He’s got a guy’s mind, he can do whatever. Don’t chase him. Any sign of that will make you sound clingy. Make him chase YOU.
it really shouldnt matter. text him how much you want to.
just dont keep texing him if he dont reply, make sure your not annoying
him. text him once or he will text you. if he sais hes got to go,
let him go! lol. so just text him if he wants to text, try to get to hang out more. snd no, your not being clingy, your just into him.
good luck with the guy:)
9 hours straight of texting … WOW !!!
that’s a bit much …
Why not TALK instead ???????????
If you know he is busy, then don’t trip on him not texting back right away …
I would be more considered that when you finally go on a date (face to face) there wont be anything left to TALK about, because you’ve already texted everything … LOL …
Text him once… If he has not texted you, then for him to text back. If he does not respond, text back once. Then wait. If he does not respond, then do not push the issue because it may irritate him. You do not want to TMT (Text Message Terrorize) him, because it could get on his nerves and you are not a terrorist. Right? Right!
Allow him to persue you. Personally, I do not initiate texts more than once every other day; which allows him plenty of time to intitiate communication with me and persue me. When he does, he is often curious as to what I have been doing that has kept my time mysteriously busy!
I think you texting him 2 times a day is good enough. And then when he text you always return his text.
( hours what can you talk in 9 hours when i talk to my boyfriend for 15 minutes
we don’t know what else to talk
look this is what me and my boyfriend do
we
talk little bit on the phone
then he tells me hes gona text me
i wait for his text because he has things to do
he cant be texting me all the time
it gets boring to be texting and talking
try keeping it cool
by relaxing when hes not busy
and he feels in the mood talking to you he will text you
dont text him alot
that will get him bored and anoyed
It’s okay. I have had the same problem also. I feel like sometimes I am being annoying and they are like “great, it’s her AGAIN =/” This is my rule of thumb…If he replies to you with “k” or “ya” or “oh” or something short and sweet. Don’t reply back. Cause A) He could be busy or B) He is bored with the conversation. So take a break (and give your fingers a break) and put the phone down. If he wants to talk to you…He will text you another time. If he doesn’t text you at all that day or the next…text him at night. Between 7:30-9. My guy friend told me that he always texts a girl between that time because she probably got down eating and now she is just relaxing. Then text him “Hey whats up?” or text him something that reminds you of him. Hope this helped.
Yes, you text to much that’s why he won’t answer you, don’t seem so needy. Lay off and let him text you. 9 hours were your fingers sore?
do not text!!! always call! texts are only for little things like “im going to be 5 mins late” or “ill call you in 10 mins”
you saying “i know hes probably busy” for when he doesn’t answer…well thats just you making excuses for him
if a guy likes you…he is never too “busy”
i believe he will text you for 9 hrs straight because he likes the conversation, however if he was really into you he would just call.
if a guy likes you he will hang out with you right away and get to know you that way, not through a 9 hr text
also, guys like to chase. so…if he likes you, wait for him to call you. or if he is not going to call, always wait for him to text you!
if he doesn’t take you out or hangout with you, dont make any more excuses for him.
because if he really did like you, he would do all of those things
i also suggest reading the book “He’s just not that into you”
just text him if he doesnt text back dont text again
ok so i like this guy and i really wanna know if he likes me. what should i do? i give him space and all . like before we first got to talking he gave me his number i texted him and then we got to talking but it was short messages and now when we text he just says one word messages , sometimes i feel like he doesnt like me and all . i need help.:)
