Is it just me? I need your opinions Girls/Guys
Here is my question? As you can see from my profile I have been single for a long time. I very rarely get involved in messaging and interactions generally fizzle out. Some times tho I do get into a good and conversation and twice I have given my number out. On both occasions I have had to block the person I gave my number due to serial texting. The first person left 22 test messages with out reply. I was in work and I don't answer my phone in work so when I finished I had all these messages. I politely finished all contact. The second the same thing so I blocked the number. Both told me I over reacting and this is the normal level of text you should expect in a modern relationship. My own opinion is this if I send some a text I wait for them to reply before I send another one and I have never sent words. Why are you not talking to me in a text.So what is your take on this.

I have a little self respect.
However, you should make it clear to your online friend from the beginning that you will not be able to contact them during office hours. That may help.
I have never had to block anybody either. I don't give my mobile number out to virtual strangers.
Or you just don't have interest in those guys
texting you..
One good solution you blocked them so no worries
live your life.
I bet you never violate the traffic in one-way street.
Break some rules man. ........ for the higher purpose.
Often enough I've given my number to the odd one and its not until I have do I find out just how odd they actually really are, but thanks to blocking its no big deal when I find out I've given me number to yet another plonker. I think sometimes until you do you may not get a better feel of a person until you have
Woke once to 27 missed calls
Singles are lonely and yes when we find someone we like talking to it is exciting but the real connection is finding the level we like and find comfortable - not demand a high level instantly.
Still, it saved time in the long term so not entirely wasted.
Itchy.
I am sure in your case they were just so excited to have the number of such a beautiful person they temporarily lost their mind. So many missed calls is a put off.
I think perhaps you are opening up too quick , too soon? hence inviting 'caretakers' into your life.
They can be manipulative and hide under the guise of 'caring' but are controlling, hence all those texts.
Most people are relatively Ok, and will take a hint or a text to say you cannot take calls at work
Personally, I hate texting. A little goes a long way.
I wish you luck in your endeavours.
