Or textationship, or however it's spelled - a situationship which basically happens via texting. Anyway. I just learned this the hard way so I want to shout this from the rooftops:
TEXTING FOR HOURS ALL DAY EVERY DAY CREATES NOTHING BUT FALCE INTIMACY. AND BOOOOY DOES IT HURT TO RECOVER FROM IT.
If a guy you barely know just keeps texting and texting - NOT CALLING! - and seems reluctant to meet f2f, he's just wasting your time!!!! Don't make up excuses for him. IF HE'S NOT MAKING TIME FOR YOU, IT'S NOT WORTH IT. TEXTING IS NOT MAKING TIME. Either he's not really interested in you, is actually taken irl or just getting some kind of supply from your attention - doesn't matter, the outcome is the same a.k.a. BS which is not fit for a queen.
Textuationship won't be a real relationship but it feels like one since you know sooooo much about them and you've told sooooo much about yourself. Blegh. I thought I was in the clear since we actually had one date irl, but in hindsight he was extremely rude, "couldn't" meet me for a second time because he was "so busy", and then he ghosted me 🙃 It took him almost two weeks to ask me out and then almost another two before we actually met because of our different schedules, so we had been texting almost for A MONTH when we finally met. He had me trained and conditioned like Pavlov's dog by then. DON'T DO THIS.
I think this kind of marathon texting is getting more and more common these days and it's extremely easy to fall into, so I wanted to remind everyone. Keep your boundaries, ladies!
IMO these men are either taken irl or catfish scammers.
