Should I text first or wait for him to text me? I'll answer yours if you answer this!?

This morning me and my ldr bf called and we talked for about half an hour. He was being sweet as usual.

But then I texted him around 6:00pm but he never replied (he wasnt online at that time anyway). He was probably busy since he has class from 4 to 9pm.

But now it's already 11:20pm and he hasnt texted me yet, probably he forgot to reply or too lazy. But should I wait for him to text me goodnight or should I text him first?

((Sorry it's long))

    Try not be one of those type people that suffocates their partner in a relationship. It gets old faster than you think.

    Even in a FRIENDSHIP Relationship. One of the BIGGEST mistakes people make with each other (not only couples) is not establishing communication and understanding. Usually one of the two doesn't want to make waves, so when there is confusion or a misunderstanding "a raging sea and massive hurricanes" take place between them and sometimes ends them both.

    You need to learn to talk and establish the ground rules for possibilities (like rumors, cheating, mistakes, misunderstandings, mood swings, personal space and privacy) if you don't, you will always bump heads when these unexpected things show up.

    YOU are NEVER suppose to accommodate people, you don't know very well. You are suppose to let "them" get to know who and how you are. They can decide if they want to be around you. Being a puppet, you might make people like you, but you have to keep being different every time you want to please everyone.

    NO BODY RESPECTS A PUPPET, because they (people) don't know how FAKE you will be next time or at different times.

    IF You have something to say or ask… do it. You won't happy "babysitting" people in your age group anyway.

    NOBODY gets into a relationship so their mate can control them, force restrictions or suffocate their space.

    Your BF/GF had a life and responsibilities before you met… they still do… just like you.

    Traditionally, it is the job of the guy to text first. However, some guys are not really used to this principle. If you like him that much, then nothing prevents you from texting him. I'm sure he'll learn from you, and gradually change his ways to reciprocate as time goes on.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

    You should probably just waut because he can be doing something. I remember my friend had the same issue but she waited and turns out one of the guys relatives was severly ill so he didn't want to talk to anybody and he was busy. If you trust him enough just wait :)

    If your just saying goodnight its ok. It shows him that he is on your mind before you go to sleep. I hate when people dont text back tho ;p

    He was probably just really tired and wanted to get some shut eye. Don't make too much of it.

    Hope this helps!
