Good morning texts

[Anonymous]

I enjoy them as long as it doesn’t become a daily thing that is required.

I am a woman and completely indifferent to the good morning text. However, I know my boyfriend like it so when we’re apart we do “good morning” and “good night” texts. There’s no right answer. Do what makes you feel good.

SOO needy! Do NOT do it. Wake her up in person

[Anonymous]

OP, if you want to do this, just let her know and ask her if she'd find that meaningful or helpful. As you can see here, people vary in whether they like it. Some really love it.

If you haven't started don't. Because at some point you might not want to do it, or get busy, and then she will wonder why you stopped and what it means...

Wow. It really depends upon you and your SO. I liked it from one BF, don't really need / want it from DH.

If I get them, they're a total sign of neediness and desperation.

It depends on the relationship and the people. DH and I don’t do it regularly so it would be weird to do it for no reason. We don’t text or call a lot though. I’ve had relationships where we did more texting, and we’d send good morning and/or good night messages, and it felt right. Now that I think about it, it seems like those messages worked best when we were in different time zones.

I wouldn’t do it with everyone, and I’d never expect it daily, but sometimes it’s nice.

Agreed. I ignore them when i get them and it's a complete turn off to a guy I'm interested in.

Not a fan, feel it imposes some obligation to respond with a more substantive conversation topic.

We had gotten into a good morning routine purely so he’d know I was awake and he could text me. Fast forward a few years when he was deployed and 6 hours ahead of me, I still did it but occasionally missed a day because I had a work emergency to deal with ASAP. He finally told me he would get excited around lunch time because I always woke up between 6-7am so he’d stare at his phone while he ate and wait for my good morning alert. I never missed again after that.

Try it and see.

My husband and I were separated for two years and he sent me a good morning email most mornings. I liked it.

+1. My long distance/different time-zone bf sent good morning emails and I looked forward to those every morning. I’m not sure I would like them as much with someone I saw regularly, though.

What would you do if you randomly got one from a guy you were seeing?

[Anonymous]

NP here. Do not randomly send a good morning text. It's creepy. A guy I was dating for a few months did it once. I ghosted him...I hated it

Serious question: why is it creepy?

[Anonymous]

I wouldn’t do it with a guy I was dating because it could get creepy. When my husband is away on business I might send him a good morning text to let him know I miss him.
