This one is for all my girls out there that tend to get a little overzealous when they like a guy. I see it all the time, I have done it myself a few times, and lately I have even gotten some stories from friends about them doing it. We meet a guy. We think he's hot. We exchange numbers. And..........it all goes crazy from there. I myself think that hot guys just make me act stupid. Call it my desire to have what I want instantly. And when I say "what I want" i really just mean knowing I can have it. I can admit that. There is definitely a greater thrill in chasing something....or someone, then just having it handed to you. A few times in my life I have met a guy that is hot enough that he sets my actions off in a direction that is far from my usual course. Normally I am all about work and friends and talking to guys is just something I do when I am out, or when I find that rare minute in the day. But the hot ones....oh no, they are totally different. They send these stupid little signals into my brain that say "Text him! Text him!" because for whatever reason its such a thrill when they text you back. Its almost like what I imagine its like for a hunter or something when their prey (sorry guys, sometimes thats exactly what you are) is in sight. My vision becomes affixed and my target is locked. So then I do what any crazy girl (and when I say crazy, I really mean sexually overcharged, I think it sounds better) would do: I text them way too much. And I have to say, I know what I am doing is screwing up any chances I have of things working out with this person, but again, like a deer in rutting season, I become oblivious to that fact in the moment. Its only after when I say "damnit Gina! You blew it!" But I guess I would rather live a life of taking chances that fail, then always wondering what if.
And yes, I do love the feeling of instant gratification when I want something. Its why I love fast food, why I shop in person and not online, and why I use the internet on my phone. If I wanted to wait around for things I would be a fisherman. But I dont. First of all, I dont have that kind of time. And secondly, when you think about it, when its right, you both usually feel that kind of uncontrolled passion.
But girls, while I am totally willing to take these chances with guys that I think are wickedly hot (and truth be told, it has NEVER worked out being overzealous), I cant tell you my advice is for you to do the same. I do say go after what you want. But you deserve to be chased too! So if you have been the starting texter for more than 2 occasions, draw back. They know where to find you. And if they never text you, then it wasnt meant to be. And now that I think about it, getting a text out of the blue is way psexier than getting a reply anyway.
So guys, quit with that lameass 3 day rule you all use. And if you are into a girl, show it. But be forewarned, overtexting knows no gender. So dont make the same mistake I do!
