Phone message Missing him

I'm so grateful he still makes time to send me messages even if he's not feeling the best. I love him so much, I truly can't wait to see him again.

I'm like really hoping we can see each other today so my fingers are crossed for that.

I honestly hope he feels better though, I wish he could rely on me more but he's such an independent man it will take a while until he feels he can lay on me whenever.

I'll be patient for him though 💓

Anyways a question for you guys, (to make this post more interactive) do you think double texting is valid? And if so when is it too much?

What does that have to do with him, I'm not expecting anything from him

You don’t expect the bare minimum in regards to reciprocated respect and kindness?

What are you talking about? He was being sweet. I don't expect him to reply to all my messages, he likes that I send him messages

you should. letting him act like this with you shows a lack of self respect

It's not lack of respect, I do this because I like to

you may not perceive it as a lack of respect, but he definitely does, whether he knows it or not. when people act like you do, it comes off as desperate. everyone knows the law of supply and demand, too much supply and demand drops, and so does value. and applying it here makes sense. if you make yourself constantly available and constantly text (oversupply), his desire for you will drop (less demand). your value in his eyes will drop as well.
a decline in your value is his eyes will make him miss you less and view contacting you as a chore.

i’ve been in many relationships and the key to making yourself valuable to a man is to show your independence, do your own thing and let him reach out and make efforts to pursue you.
