| I've been dating someone for a few months now. Are random good morning texts a good idea or kind of creepy? As a woman, do you like them |
| Every now and then is find. Too much is a neediness red flag. |
| I think it’s sweet. |

DH is military and would be up for PT well before I was up for grad school when we were dating. 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. |
+1. My SO does this. Love him to bits. |
| OP here. If I've never done it before, is it weird to randomly start? |
| I wouldn't. I'm a woman and I would find it needy |
|
As a womean, in my experience it's a playboy move, someone needy demanding of my time.
It feels like something I have to respond to, and I have other things to do in the morning, besides engaging in texts. SO if you just want to say goodmorning, I hope you have good day or whateve , and don't expect much in return go for it. |
| It friends on your relationship. Are you intimate? Is there a mutual emotional connection? If it still feels like early days, and you’re in the process of getting to know each other, then it might be too much. I’ve been in relationships where a couple months out it is clear we are a couple, and both of us know it. But if this is still a “dating” situation then maybe you’re not there yet. |
| ^*meant - it *depends* on your relationship |
My husband and I were separated for two years and he sent me a good morning email most mornings. I liked it. |
| I’m a woman. Annoying and needy. |
| I’m a woman. I text with my boyfriend every morning. Just a good morning text, have a great day type thing. Even when we’ve stayed over, just a text when he gets to work to let me know he made it in. I think it’s sweet. When I was married I talked to my then husband on the phone every morning when I got up (he went in to work before I woke). Nothing wrong with showing the other person you’re thinking about them. Life is too short to not do things to make people you care about feel special. |
Soooo needy. Leave her alone |
| As a woman I love it |
