There’s a type of guy who always texts first.
Not because he’s got nothing better to do.
Not because he’s trying to control her.
But because he’s scared.
Scared of losing her.
Scared she’ll forget him.
Scared of the silence that feels like it’s swallowing him whole.
Here’s the hard truth: that fear is what’s pushing her away faster than anything else.
The more you chase, the more she pulls back.
The more you make yourself available, the more she takes you for granted.
And one day, she just stops trying.
She starts replying less.
Gets colder.
Takes longer to answer.
Then disappears.
And you?
You panic.
You text more.
You try harder.
But what you’re really doing is begging to hold onto someone who’s already checked out.
Stop right there.
This isn’t some manipulative game of “who’s colder wins.”
This isn’t about playing mind games or tricks.
It’s about getting your own power back.
You stop texting first because you realize you don’t owe anyone your attention.
If she cares, she’ll make the move like you used to.
If not, you have better things to invest your time and energy in.
When you pull back, something shifts.
No more “good morning” texts.
No more “hope you slept well.”
No more constant check-ins.
And that silence?
It makes her feel a void she didn’t notice before.
If she still cares, she’ll fill that void.
If she doesn’t, you save yourself months of self-delusion.
Real attraction doesn’t come from who texts first.
It comes from a vibe - a calm confidence that makes her want to reach out.
Not because she has to, but because she wants to.
I get it.
There are days you feel lost.
Like you need her just to feel okay.
Like your whole day depends on a text back.
Here’s the cold, hard truth:
You don’t need a woman to feel worthy.
You need to stand on your own.
That kind of strength?
No school teaches it.
No Instagram guru sells it.
And few men have the guts to tell you.
I shared a post once that started a lot of men on the right path.
You know the one.
If you haven’t read it, or if you need a reminder, go check it out.
Sometimes one read at the right time pulls a guy out of the hole.

Short. Straight. Real.
It’s time to stop chasing.
Start standing.
