![]() ![]() A woman might get upset if she’s having a cute, banter type of back and forth with a guy and then he just stops responding but this really means nothing! To her, going back and forth and being all cute and flirty was their way of connecting, but to him the conversation wasn’t moving toward anything, and he just didn’t see a need to respond further. Men communicate differently than women do, and they usually talk for the sake of achieving some sort of a goal or making a plan. She really wants to text him, because she likes him and wants to talk to him, but she doesn’t want to be the initiator so instead, she uses restraint and waits/hopes for him to text her, and then hits the panic button when he doesn’t. ![]() She wants to hear from him during the day because that makes her feel cared for and even when she’s at work, she can’t help but think about why he hasn’t texted just to say hi or see how her day is going. The reason women get so frustrated is that they expect men to experience relationships the same way they do. A guy may start out texting you all day, no matter how crazy his day is, but that will only happen in the early stages of a relationship and simply isn’t sustainable for the longterm. Most women can do this, men typically can’t (at least not the ones with demanding jobs). I remember times when I would be at work doing what needed to be done and G-chatting all day long with a guy I was seeing. Men primarily gain their sense of worth through their ability to have an impact on the world, from their ability to be “winners.” So in the context of texting and relationships, a woman’s head is always in the relationship, even when she’s at work. Also, many studies have demonstrated that women primarily gain their sense of worth and self-esteem through their interpersonal relationships. ![]()
