8 Texts To Never Send Your Partner No Matter How Angry You Are
I completely understand the allure of technology; sending a text is far easier than holding a real conversation. But our dependence on screens has made us slack in communicating our innermost feelings and thoughts. When significant disagreements are reduced to text conversations, it’s troubling since this frequently leads to passive-aggressive comments or needless drama.
Thus, even when you’re furious, you shouldn’t send your partner these 8 texts:
1. Why Are You Mad At Me?
There’s no way to settle things with a text exchange if he’s truly upset. It’s likely that exchanging back and forth will just make feelings worse for one or both of you. Making a phone call can be a preferable option for minor annoyances. But, it’s preferable to hold off on discussing important issues until you can speak with someone in person.
2. Why Aren’t You Responding To Me? Are You Not Into Me Anymore?
Sending unsolicited SMS when you’re in a relationship and feeling uneasy can make you feel even more anxious and frustrated. When your date doesn’t respond, it’s simple to fall into a vicious loop of compulsive messaging.
Alternatively, think about giving a quick call and leaving a voicemail: “Hey! I just wanted to give you an update. I hope you have a wonderful week and I’ll talk to you next week. After that, give yourself and other priorities a week of attention. Recognize that there are no hard and fast rules in relationships. You may reclaim your peace of mind and get off the crazy texting treadmill in this method.
3. I Saw That Picture You Posted Online Of Your Friend
Although some adults in their 20s also engage in this type of messaging, teenagers are the ones who do it most frequently. We should all be aware of how immature this behavior is, so let’s get over it. Effective communication is essential; simply be direct.
Because it is so simple to obtain information about partners in today’s digital environment, research emphasizes how important it is to comprehend jealousy in this particular situation. In contrast, those with anxious or scared attachment frequently struggle with ambiguity, which can result in greater electronic monitoring and jealousy techniques. Those with attachment anxiety also frequently raise the visibility of their relationship on social media.
4. We’re Done. The Relationship Is Over.
Regardless of the situation, you probably don’t need me to remind you that texting someone to end a relationship is never a good idea. Since we are not throwaway items, breaking up shouldn’t seem like throwing something away.
You shouldn’t do that, and I definitely shouldn’t have it done to you. Together, let’s resolve to get past this immature behavior. After all, we are adults!
5. Where were you last night? You think you can just stand me up?
First, attempt to refrain from drawing hasty judgments and being unduly suspicious. It’s best to give your date more leeway because there might have been an emergency. Send a message along the lines of this instead: “I hope everything’s alright. I wasn’t sure if I was simply stood up or if something had happened the previous night. Kindly inform me about the situation.” It’s probably time to move on and understand that your date might not be the best communicator if you don’t hear back.
6. Don’t Ever Speak To Me Again
Let’s face it: sending a text while feeling really strongly about something is probably an impulsive move that you’ll come to regret. A real conversation is still preferable to texting, particularly when handling intense emotions like rage. To put it plainly, it’s not the appropriate platform for those conversations.
7. I Don’t Like You Hanging Out With So And So
I wish I could claim that teenagers navigating the chaos of their first love are the only ones who send these kinds of texts, but I’ve also seen people in their 50s send jealous and angry messages. He shouldn’t talk to you via text if spending time with someone makes him uncomfortable. He needs to behave like an adult and either call or hold off until you can speak in person.
8. Any Text Where You Call Someone A Nasty Name
While shouting names in person is never appropriate, doing so over text is far more cowardly. Steer clear of this conduct when out on dates.
Whenever you send a text, avoid sending anything that is motivated by strong feelings, explicit material, or provocations. Since texting can result in rash decisions, following these rules will be good for your relationship over time.
