Oh the infamous "I need attention" text. Sometimes a girl just needs attention. And you're right - I do not send this text message out to men I'm looking to hook up with.
The recipients of this text are those darling men who comprise my emotional spank bank. Every woman has one. Friends with feelings for me, guys I can't really remember from the bars who I gave my number to, ex-boyfriends, guys I have nothing in common with, men with girlfriends. Women will string these guys along for months with vague "we should hang out" messages. We just need to be reminded that out there, someone wants to have sex with us.
Texting is a sure way to stay in the emotional spank bank because you end up basically providing a service for these women - you send over attention which then swells their confidence so they can go hook up with other guys. If you can't get them to meet up after a couple tries, forget it. I have strung guys along for years with well-timed "how r u?" texts. Don't be that chump. [/i]
Come on guys, reading some stuff like this makes me lose a little faith in humanity! It's so cold!
I agree some girls do look for attention by writing things like "how r u", "entertain me", but some
are into you... and want to be entertained! I wouldn't advise going cold and saying "no", you're trying to create rapport, not push them away. Plus it could look like you're scared of saying something that isn't entertaining. What I would do is just continue the conversation or say something to start a new conversation, and at the end write "entertain you? Why would I want to do that?". It maintains an edge of defiance to a possible shit-test, and doesn't push them away. Any criticism, Zephyrine?
