Flirting

[xjox1983]

Should you still be flirting and flirty texting with your partner after 13 years

i find it exiting and makes me feel good
he says why would you want to after 13 years

we went though a rough patch and decided to try make it work
I feel it’s builds bonds
but his chat gpt which is obviously never wrong disagrees

so I’m asking for real people views .

There is no should or shouldn’t but if he doesn’t want to, why would you?

It sounds as though he’s not up for it.

We always have
till the last 6 months when we hit a rocky patch
and I just thought it might be a good way to build back stronger

it’s not the be all and end all was just looking for opinions
but more than happy to be told differently

Personally I would find "flirty " texting ridiculous. But if it was normal in your relationship then fair enough.

Do you think your DP has perhaps played along with the texting to keep you happy and now, because you aren't getting on too well, he is telling you his real feelings on the matter?
I really find it hard to believe an adult man would be guided about this by Chatgpt. If he really doesn't have a mind of his own on this then perhaps you should be revaluating the relationship anyway?

In any case why would you want to send " flirty" texts to someone who didn't want receive them?

What do you mean by flirty texting do you mean sexting?? I think if it's not coming naturally and it's forced its probably not very exciting - especially when you know he's not into it op. You can't keep sending someone those kinds of messages if he's told you he doesn't like it
