Maharishi Posted September 21, 2015 Posted September 21, 2015 When you're at the 1st/2nd date stage is it OK to be texting each other all day every day? Or is it best to pull back?
LilaMarie Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 1st/2nd date my texting is very limited. Usually it's, 'Thanks so much for dinner'. To let that person know I am still interested in seeing them again. Overtexting is not a good thing at this stage...you look clingy/needy. But that's just me.
losangelena Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 Don't go overboard. Save something to talk about for the date. 1
RightThere Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 When you're at the 1st/2nd date stage is it OK to be texting each other all day every day? Or is it best to pull back? I usually text them just a little bit more than they text me. That was I usually seem interested, but keep up to their level of comfort.
Oregon_Dude Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 More than a couple texts back and forth a day, at the second-date stage, is too much. You want to maintain your own life and be slightly unavailable (respond about a half hour later), to increase attraction.
J21 Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 When you're at the 1st/2nd date stage is it OK to be texting each other all day every day? Or is it best to pull back? No. ALL day? EVERYDAY? You guys aren't best friends yet, chill.
Karimikui Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 You should text each other as often as you like. Forget these silly rules people make up. If you want to text him back immediately, do so. If you don't have time to text him back immediately, that is fine too. If he's texting you just as frequently as you are texting him I think that is great and sounds like you have a good rapport. 2
Maggie4 Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 I don't like text and I am bad at it. I never know who should send the last text unanswered. I mean, it has to end! But when someone says something, I feel like I have to answer. And then it comes back again! Usually at some point I just go silent cos I can't take it anymore. So I think you limit your texts to only important things to say. Don't text just for the sake of texting.
katiegrl Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 (edited) Don't go overboard. Save something to talk about for the date. I don't even think it's that so much as just giving the other person a chance to think about you and miss you. Re things to talk about, my experience has been when I really click with a guy, there is a never-ending variety of things to talk about....it just never stops. I still like to limit our interactions though...cause it's fun wondering about them and missing them! Then when you finally do talk/see each other again....it's like WOW, I really missed you!! Gets my heart pumping! Edited September 23, 2015 by katiegrl
joseb Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 When you're at the 1st/2nd date stage is it OK to be texting each other all day every day? Or is it best to pull back? Is it ever OK to text someone all day every day?! What is OK for you? Do you want to spend the day staring at a 5 inch screen twiddling your thumbs?
GemmaUK Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 is it OK to be texting each other all day every day? This is something I would never tolerate again no matter how much I liked a guy. I would nip it in the bud and either set boundaries or realise we were incompatible and no longer see the guy.

I would nip it in the bud and either set boundaries or realise we were incompatible and no longer see the guy. I would love it. I text back and forth with my brother and my best friend and my uncle pretty much every day. I see nothing wrong with doing this with somebody you're really attracted to and get on well with, either. 1
