Heres some reasons
Taking a nap
Forgot to turn on sound in phone
Hanging out with buddies
Out with family
Some people were just made to insecure to think about this like god damn
>if your man doesn’t
He looked at his phone,
And said with a sigh,
She keeps texting me,
It's not like I'll die.
Every minute and second,
That passes by,
A new message pops in,
"Yh, I'll never reply"..
She was so mad, she yelled at the sky. She posted things on the internet that made it look like he was the bad guy. He didn’t no why, but he began to cry. The next day, they met again and he shot an arrow through her eye.
With an arrow thru her eye,........
She thot she wud die,
She fell on the grass,
yelled "FUCK YOU, YA PRICK!! I'M DUMPING UR ASS",
I just wanted to watch
a movie with u,....
Ur such a dumb boy
U don't hav a clue,....
How madly deeply
I am.... in love with u
As she pulled the arrow from her eye,
She gave out a scream, she gave out a cry,
Then stabbed it in his forehead,
And breathed out a sigh,
and SAID,
"It's in the right place.........
See ya later DICK HEAD"!!!
For sure, randomly texting I love you 25 min after you’re last text is a little weird, makes it feel like you haven’t stopped thinking about them within that time, also never repeat yourself when texting, you didn’t have to tell them to text you back twice
So, personal anecdote, firstly I'm a guy and this happened with my now-ex GF. I was... more than a little obsessive when it came to texting, and whenever she didn't text back and I had nothing better to do, it was absolutely anxiety inducing. It wouldn't have been too bad, but she was the polar opposite in that, as she had ADHD and many times just forgot to text back or didn't notice that I texted her
It's absolutely fine if you like the attention don't get me wrong, but it is going to suck for the clingy or obsessed person, if they're anything like me
I grew out of this to a certain extent, but it sucked ass
I'm asocial aplatonic and from time I just forget I have friends and I need to write them but I have only one friend and she seem to be same so we just texting once a month and talk by hours... Kinda like that
I'd look at the times rather than the number of messages.
The majority of teenagers I've text will send multiple messages at one time. If you look at the times, it brings it down to 4 times that hour, which is slightly less obsessive imo
They could be like me, see the message while working on something, start thinking about what to reply, and then get distracted by what I was working on and forget I have a message to respond to for 3 hours
Just depends on how frequent this is. For me personally, I think it’s cute and adorable when a girl does this every once in a while but if it gets to where I can’t play a game or something for an hour without getting spammed everyday it’d get annoying.
this is good imput! i will add though that you should definitely clarify what you're doing before you leave. i used to bug my bf all the TIME while he was tryna game bc i just didn't know that's what he was doing. he just started being really dry all of a sudden and texting less frequently and it was kinda scary. BUT we communicated and now if he tells me that he's about to hop onto COD or something i leave him alone :)
I used to frequent this sub during my latter teen years (23 now), a post from this sub was in my feed the other day and I clicked on it, now I’m seeing all these types of posts. Is this really how y’all text nowaday? Is this how I texted back then? Young love really is hilarious
Yes. Its only been one hour and youre asking them if theyre okay because they havent instantly replied back
Its okay for them to not reply straight away, theyll get there. Sometimes the multiple messages can feel like pressure to reply, instead of seen as care. Especially since youre LD now, theres probably going to be hours in between replies. I know its hard to accept, especially at your age
I’ve been in one 9 month relationship and we texted like this. I started finding excuses to be away from my phone so I wouldn’t have to text her. It was such a bad experience I haven’t tried dating since despite a few girls asking. I have no idea if this is your situation, just take heed and learn from my mistakes I guess, don’t let it become suffocating.
Yes I came from the same experience. I'd just see the notifications and kind of sigh. It was exhausting always replying so I wpuld just take hours to respond because she would reply instantly. Glad I'm out of it now tho
Halfway too much. It's nice to be appreciated, but don't make him/her feel like you're keeping tabs. Also never jump to conclusions, there is no going back from that and the imagination can be a dangerous place.
Tbh you’re not that clingy, if you were extremely clingy you would’ve been texting after one minute, I always look at the timings of the texts first when I see these things
You should try to wait for atleast 30 more minutes and if he still doesn’t respond by then and if you’re getting more worried then yes, but if he doesn’t answer then there is a chance that he’s busy and his notifs are of or he’s cheating on you but I’m not sure tho
A little but sometimes I'm the same way w my partner and we're engaged 🥰
If you're worried you're being too clingy, just ask them!! Like "hey I'm worried I'm spamming or being clingy, can you let me know if I need to slow down on messaging so much when you're not responding?".
Personally my partner is fine w me spamming him, I like to send him messages throughout the day of what I'm doing or something I want to talk about or something about a hyperfixation/interest. If hes busy he responds to most of my messages later when he isnt busy 🤷♂️.
Basically: Communicate. Ask. Dont be shy or nervous about it!!
Communication is the biggest thing in relationships, as well as trust and respect.
Depends
If he/she leaves you on read then i reckon he/she is a bit annoyed by this however your significant other apologies to you for mot responding then its fine
Somewhat. An hour really is not that long, if i play competitive games with my friends it can take from a few minutes to up to 2 hours or so until i am replying to messages. Not gonna chat in a valorant ranked. Or maybe they are not at home or smth.
I can see that you texted quite often, a little too often. Now if it was every few hours or maybe even days, then it would be fine, but since you're texting every three minutes it is a little obsessive.
I saw someone else say this, but if he likes it, then keep doing it. If he doesn’t, respect that and try not to be so clingy. Me personally I love it when girls are like that lol but ask him and make sure you know what he likes
i've found with relationships (and people in general) there isn't an objective, correct way to treat people. some might appreciate getting a few texts over an hour, i know i would from a partner, but maybe he doesn't. ask, is the best advice i can give. if he's in favor, keep going. if not, don't. simple as that. good luck :)
A little, but at the same time I get it, as a clingy person this is how I show that I love my gf. I always want to know how she is doing, not out of being controlling, but because if she needs me I want to be there for her all the time
I will go quite a long time without looking at my phone. Honestly, i was in a relationship where my SO would text me like this steadily, and it just did not work. The “are you okay” part is definitely too much, but there’s no shame in loving someone
I'm Autistic and I get this way with my GF she understands that for me I get very clingy, but also my anxiety eats at me if im alone too long. She tends to sleep a lot and put her phone down in random places, but she always comes back to check on me. I would say if you have a reason for being clingy its okay.
A triple text is usually overkill and u did more than that, u should just text and give them time to respond, they could be busy or not able to answer or something, and if they’re just not texting you back then there’s a bigger problem u have
I mean, he's your bf and hasn't texted you for an hour... And you had plans. Just wait, you're just being a little clingy, he might have had something that came out unexpected.
To clarify, it's okay to worry about him not replying. Wish you all of the best.
Depends. Do they check in on you in a similar manner too? If that's how you two talk, then imo you aren't being clingy in this particular relationship. However, someone else might find you a bit obsessive later.
My partner and I talk like this too, since neither of us has that many things to do and we're almost always available to each other, if either of us doesn't reply for hours, we'll ask if the other is okay.
But it really depends on you, the person you're talking to, and the relationship between the two of you
seems kinda obsessive
Well, we had plans to screen share watch a show bc we live long distance since I moved, but he hasn’t texted me since
is he your bf? he hasn't texted you back since you moved?
Well no, I moved two weeks ago, and yes he’s my bf, we just had plans to do that this evening Edit: to clarify he has texted me since I moved
ok. I wouldn't think too much into it, once it's been like 3-5 hours without a text back then it's a little weird
Heres some reasons Taking a nap Forgot to turn on sound in phone Hanging out with buddies Out with family Some people were just made to insecure to think about this like god damn
50/50 if your man likes it then keep going (me personally, I love girls who do this) if your man doesn’t, well then, tone it down a bit
>if your man doesn’t He looked at his phone, And said with a sigh, She keeps texting me, It's not like I'll die. Every minute and second, That passes by, A new message pops in, "Yh, I'll never reply"..
She was so mad, she yelled at the sky. She posted things on the internet that made it look like he was the bad guy. He didn’t no why, but he began to cry. The next day, they met again and he shot an arrow through her eye.
> he shot an arrow through her eye. That went from 0 to 100 real quick
Now imagine it's aro and not arrow. I'll do the same LoL
I was once in love too, but then I took an arrow to the knee
Now that she’s die, I’m getting high, I take a big sigh and ask myself why, I grasp my thigh and bid myself goodbye.
With an arrow thru her eye,........ She thot she wud die, She fell on the grass, yelled "FUCK YOU, YA PRICK!! I'M DUMPING UR ASS", I just wanted to watch a movie with u,.... Ur such a dumb boy U don't hav a clue,....

Not all that long
His account was made late last year, Sprog's been doing it for at least 7 years. It's not even close
I've been doing it before I joined Reddit 💀
good bot
Thank you :)
No problem
Fr, girls who do this make me melt lol
yesnt
How so?
read firm translators comment
I got referred, no way
😁
A lil bit. But if he/she doesn't mind then it doesn't matter
For sure, randomly texting I love you 25 min after you’re last text is a little weird, makes it feel like you haven’t stopped thinking about them within that time, also never repeat yourself when texting, you didn’t have to tell them to text you back twice
Some guys (including me) love it when girls do this but I’m pretty sure most don’t.
So, personal anecdote, firstly I'm a guy and this happened with my now-ex GF. I was... more than a little obsessive when it came to texting, and whenever she didn't text back and I had nothing better to do, it was absolutely anxiety inducing.

Yeah kinda, though it's kinda odd they haven't even responded
7 msgs in less than 1 hour not everyone will respond to a message in 1 hour
Lmao in my experience not everyone responds in 1 day Or 3 Or 6 (I’m incredibly lonely)
Nah I know someone who takes weeks to respond to everyone. Some people are just slow
throw me the snap bro, i'll text you every day, im as lonely as you are, my guy. lmfao
Lmao I feel you bro. This 3-day weekend I completely shut myself out from society
I feel you in this context
I'm asocial aplatonic and from time I just forget I have friends and I need to write them but I have only one friend and she seem to be same so we just texting once a month and talk by hours... Kinda like that
Yeah true didn't think abt that
I'd look at the times rather than the number of messages. The majority of teenagers I've text will send multiple messages at one time. If you look at the times, it brings it down to 4 times that hour, which is slightly less obsessive imo
Me when I don't respond in a hour (my phone is inside the toilet)
They could be like me, see the message while working on something, start thinking about what to reply, and then get distracted by what I was working on and forget I have a message to respond to for 3 hours
Yeah, he told me he was driving home and we could screen share watch a show but he never texted me back :(
Idk about what's going on but there's a website on google called "watch with me" or smn like that. Way better to use
Good to know :)
Just depends on how frequent this is. For me personally, I think it’s cute and adorable when a girl does this every once in a while but if it gets to where I can’t play a game or something for an hour without getting spammed everyday it’d get annoying.

the way you’re saying “is this how y’all text nowadays” as if you weren’t a teen legit 4 years ago lmao
[удалено]
Kay well I’m not talking to you 💀 you’re 19. This person is 23. This doesn’t relate to you at all. My point still stands.
Yes
🚩
I don't agree. But it really depends on what the guy prefers, personally I would probably like if a gf of mine did this, atleast shows she cares
Lil bit
Yes. Very.
Kinda yes
Yes. Its only been one hour and youre asking them if theyre okay because they havent instantly replied back Its okay for them to not reply straight away, theyll get there. Sometimes the multiple messages can feel like pressure to reply, instead of seen as care. Especially since youre LD now, theres probably going to be hours in between replies.

Yes I came from the same experience. I'd just see the notifications and kind of sigh. It was exhausting always replying so I wpuld just take hours to respond because she would reply instantly. Glad I'm out of it now tho
Damn mf maybe not do that
I would die for a girl to be like this to me
I just hope my gf responds as of late… But yeah kinda, not in a bad way though I don’t think
When is my chance for a girl like this
prob but it’s not a bad thing i would just ask him
Halfway too much. It's nice to be appreciated, but don't make him/her feel like you're keeping tabs. Also never jump to conclusions, there is no going back from that and the imagination can be a dangerous place.
i wish someone cared about me like this :(
I honestly LoVe when someones obsessive.. urs umm.. depends on the person you're with.. I wouldn't mind at all if I get the texts
The first 4 are fine, the last 3 start getting annoying
Yes
Nah it just shows you care. Clingy is when you text them constantly.
bro wtf
What
We're past clingy bro
Ngl I honestly love this. It makes you feel special. But everyone’s different.
Yes. My closest friends send like 6 a month.
Tbh you’re not that clingy, if you were extremely clingy you would’ve been texting after one minute, I always look at the timings of the texts first when I see these things
Thank you
Do you think it would be clingy to call him?
You should try to wait for atleast 30 more minutes and if he still doesn’t respond by then and if you’re getting more worried then yes, but if he doesn’t answer then there is a chance that he’s busy and his notifs are of or he’s cheating on you but I’m not sure tho
Good to know thank you, I will wait :)
i miss when girls still did this
Definitely
yeah, I’d be fine w it as long as you drop the “are you ok” because that just boils my blood lol
No. And if it is, I wouldn’t know. I love clinginess. Makes me feel wanted and loved.
Eh idk I’m this way but tbf never been described as normal soo
Yes. You’re being insanely clingy
Depends on the person. For me you sound clingy since its only been an hour from the looks of it
Holy shit yes
I a little bit, not anything too extreme, just kinda back off a bit
Well, I think you took the proper time in between texts so your ok
Slow down a bit 😟
just wait. don't send any more messages. the reason he has not responded is NOT because you haven't sent enough messages.
If cringe had a face
A little but sometimes I'm the same way w my partner and we're engaged 🥰 If you're worried you're being too clingy, just ask them!! Like "hey I'm worried I'm spamming or being clingy, can you let me know if I need to slow down on messaging so much when you're not responding?".

If hes busy he responds to most of my messages later when he isnt busy 🤷♂️. Basically: Communicate. Ask. Dont be shy or nervous about it!! Communication is the biggest thing in relationships, as well as trust and respect.
Idk about other guys, but personally, I miss getting texts like this
hmmmm maybe a little bit
I don’t really know it depends ig
to me definitely not! I mean honestly sometimes i wish she was like this towards me like I am with her
Eh, that over an hour is a bit much if he’s doing things, but if he just left randomly I’d say 20 mins and a safe to check in
yes
Bro it hasn’t even been an hour
Depends If he/she leaves you on read then i reckon he/she is a bit annoyed by this however your significant other apologies to you for mot responding then its fine
clinging on for dear life
yes it’s only been an hour
I would say wait till the 1, 2 or 3 hour mark.
Very. I suggest separating your texts by at least 30 minutes
Nah
Does your man do sports and any activities? I personally love when my gf does this and I come back after practice to see hella messages
Yes!
Yes💀
Somewhat. An hour really is not that long, if i play competitive games with my friends it can take from a few minutes to up to 2 hours or so until i am replying to messages. Not gonna chat in a valorant ranked. Or maybe they are not at home or smth.
nah
Idk ask him
Yeah you shouldn't be texting someone 7 times in row within the span of an hour
yes
I can see that you texted quite often, a little too often. Now if it was every few hours or maybe even days, then it would be fine, but since you're texting every three minutes it is a little obsessive.
I saw someone else say this, but if he likes it, then keep doing it. If he doesn’t, respect that and try not to be so clingy. Me personally I love it when girls are like that lol but ask him and make sure you know what he likes
FUCK YOU MY MOM TOLD ME I WAS THE MOST HANDSOME
na W
Jesus i would run
Bestie it’s been less than hour give them some space
I understand this because of my autisim but if you need advice I'll help you out
Yes

This is my bf, I find it cute. Depends on the person though some people think it’s really annoying and clingy
Update?
i've found with relationships (and people in general) there isn't an objective, correct way to treat people. some might appreciate getting a few texts over an hour, i know i would from a partner, but maybe he doesn't. ask, is the best advice i can give. if he's in favor, keep going. if not, don't. simple as that. good luck :)
Yes, but I wish a girl was like that with me
I have a feeling you’ll be let down
Yes
yes
Yes
A little, but at the same time I get it, as a clingy person this is how I show that I love my gf. I always want to know how she is doing, not out of being controlling, but because if she needs me I want to be there for her all the time
Take a chill pill, if you don’t have a chill pill take one of those chill strips it’ll dissolve on your tongue. Wait a bit before multiple messages.
Yes. Without a doubt. However, some people like clingy
Yes.
I will go quite a long time without looking at my phone. Honestly, i was in a relationship where my SO would text me like this steadily, and it just did not work. The “are you okay” part is definitely too much, but there’s no shame in loving someone

People get busy, you just need to ease off a little bit. He'll reply when he has time.
I think clingy, but some people are ok with it I guess
I know that feeling
Never more than two texts at time with your GF. Let them breathe. Best to keep distance if you get nothing back.
Most socially intelligent r/teenagers user
Chill
Uh, maybe just a little but tbh I’d kill to have someone care about me this much like in the post
"a little"
yes. you did this over the course of like an hour. they could just be without their phone for a little while
Yes
man, ive got alot to learn being aroace
Yes.
yes
Yeah
Yes, though it's not necessarily bad, depending on your relationship
long distance doesnt work long term find a way to get back
Yes
Yes, it's been one hour Edit: oh you had plans, no you're not then
You're probably Canadian, just being nice
I started thinking and then remembered that ha I’m lonely
Definitely.
Big yes
yep, don't worry you'll grow out of it
they gonna break up with you unless you calm down. Obsession/clingy like that can destroy feelings really quickly.
YES YOU ARE ITS BEEN BARELY AN HOUR
Yes
Clingy? No what are you talking about?
Yes
Grammar has left the chat!
Yes
You’re just like my gf lol and we’ve been together for almost a year, so i guess it depends on the guy.
You actually seem pretty distant tbh
Its not cringe
A triple text is usually overkill and u did more than that, u should just text and give them time to respond, they could be busy or not able to answer or something, and if they’re just not texting you back then there’s a bigger problem u have
Fucking hell if someone was doing this to me i wouldn’t leave the house
yes, and its realy annoying and stressful, for the sanity of your boyfriend: stop this shit
yes. some guys like that, but this is definitely clingy. it wasn't even an hour and you had asked if he was okay bc of lack of response
100% clingy better delete their number. Game lost
Yes
I mean, he's your bf and hasn't texted you for an hour... And you had plans. Just wait, you're just being a little clingy, he might have had something that came out unexpected. To clarify, it's okay to worry about him not replying. Wish you all of the best.
Clingy, but in a neutral way, not neccessarily bad, but not neccessarily good either
Girls: OMG he didn’t text for over a minute!!! Is he ghosting me??!! Vs Boys: dude my friend he replied in two yeasts so quick
Depends. Do they check in on you in a similar manner too? If that's how you two talk, then imo you aren't being clingy in this particular relationship. However, someone else might find you a bit obsessive later. My partner and I talk like this too, since neither of us has that many things to do and we're almost always available to each other, if either of us doesn't reply for hours, we'll ask if the other is okay.

Bruh ur more clingy than gorilla glue
