I'm embarrassed to admit it. I'm a professional woman, but it seems like I have no self control when it comes to contacting men. I met this guy that I really like and I just can't help texting him. What's wrong with me? Why can't I simply do the right thing and not text? Ugh.

Stop doing it- it's annoying to others- tell yourself that before you text.

 

I met a guy that started texting me 20 times a day- and I'd give him 3 reponses in that time. I just grew to hate him.

 

You can learn restraint- you just have to associate over texting with logic over emotion.

 

When you get the urge to text when you know you shouldn't= tell yourself you're going to annoy him and push him further away.

confusedgirl, set up a paypal account if you don't already have one.

Lol. If you would ask for more money, I would have thought I am being financially dominated :)

Restraint is important. Use your logic over your emotion.

Everytime you have this crazy urge to text- tell yourself you have to do the opposite.

 

When my last ex dumped me, I used to give my room mate my phone at night to keep in his room so I wouldn't be tempted to do anything stupid (like sending an I miss you text).

 

Don't allow your impulses to take over- think things through first. Post here if you want- it helps. We will talk you out of it :-)

Great point! I have deleted this guy's number and I normally have a bad memory. I don't know how this happened, but I memorized his phone number and just seem to dial his number whenever I'm holding my phone. Ugh!

 

I just texted him 1 hour ago, before I started this new thread. He hasn't replied yet. And I'm tempted to text him again. This is seriously a problem.

 

If I were to text him now, I probably will say,

 

"Hi, are you upset with me?"

 

Ugh. Okay, where do I send the $1?
