How long to wait before texting back?

[searock]

Do I talk like a guy? Why would I pretend to be a girl when in fact I'm not, just to annoy you? Use your deduction skillz, for once in your life.

That's EXACTLY what a guy passing off as a girl would say. But actually, I believe you're a girl: what's central to my hypothesis is your level of atttractiveness.

[searock]

Jeeeeeeeeeeeezus. I don't even.

Lol, sentence fragment (which is a sentence fragment)..

I don't understand this whole text timing thing at all. Don't people just reply if and when it suits them?

[Love'sReject]

In a sense. Mostly, however, girls analyze the guys' timings because if a guy texts at a rate that spells "overeager" to them, then they get turned off/concerned.

3 advices for OP:
1) Forget everything Love'sReject has written here.
2) Text whenever you want to, no need to time it.
3) If it's an option, give her a call rather than long texting.

It's ridiculous you tried timing/experimenting on texts. I do find it annoying when they don't respond within reasonable time. I just think...he's not that into me if he consistently takes forever to respond. If we're close enough, I'd just pick up the phone and call rather than sit and wait.

Yes, but your preferences and especially your mentality aren't quite in accord with the mass of girls; most birds think and do as I've described.

Expert == 22 year-old virgin that lives in Orange County and has seen nothing else.

Funny how every single female that has posted on this thread has said the opposite of what you say.

[Love'sReject]

That's because all girls want to act like they're so special when really, they aren't as exceptional as they'd like to argue that they are.

OP, if you're still here, pay no attention to Love'sRetard. He's a virgin and doomed to die that way. Knows less than nothing about women and relationships.

[Love'sReject]

OP, ignore HIA: He's only been with one woman and that constitutes the only known fact about their "marriage." He hasn't been on the dating scene since the 80s and consequently is not familiarized with modern dating.

Yeah, that's it "bro". Nevermind that I've been married more times than you'll get laid.

[Love'sReject]

Getting married is a shackle, anyway.
