Would you text or play it "cool"?

Just started speaking to a ex who I still have feelings for.
We've been texting for a few days.
I know in the past I've been too texty and maybe annoying??
We spoke today earlier on.
Would you wait till maybe Sunday to text him again?
He sent the last text but it wasn't really anything to reply too.
We have had good convos and he's been telling me about his new job and sending me pics of his new house etc
So basically would you text anymore today ? Or play it cool?

Just be yourself the right guy will like you for you. Don’t play games. If he’s right for you he won’t care if you text too much.

Sometimes, its better to find out just how awful someone actually can be, rather than building up their mystery in your head as to what they could have been. Thats whats worked for me in a similar situation. Once you realise there is nothing special about them, they aren't some ideal man but just yet another player who messes women around and isn't too discriminate about who they get involved with, it takes away their power. The more you find out about them, the more you go off them.

@beebbeep

I just know that when we didn't speak I really missed him. I still have feelings and I'm not really sure what I want to happen.
I think you do know what you want to happen. You want him to get back with you, get serious, and fall in love with you, like you are him.

What I think you mean is you are not sure what will happen 💐

This way madness lies, if you have to change who you are to get him not to back off it’s going to end badly...

Don’t text, and if you can’t chill out about it consider moving on. He could be bored and killing time sorry.
