[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't believe there are people on this board who think two texts a day = being needy! That is so basic and simple, I am concerned how they communicate in every day life with others. [/quote]

I don't think anyone thinks the two texts a day are being needy.  I think it's the [b]throwing a fit [/b]over it is what people are reacting to.  When DH and I were dating we talked and texted a ton. If he didn't text back one day and the next morning said "sorry I was exhausted and just relaxed and went to bed early" I would have said "oh ok.  Bad day at work?".

They both were wrong here.  He should have communicated that he was tired or busy and wasn't around to talk.  And she shouldn't flip out about it.  [/quote]
We don't know if she was "throwing a fit" or "flip out" - even OPs words were vague "bent out of shape". That could be as little as a terse greeting when he texted this AM. OPs language suggests he is on the dramatic side, but he may also find her needy in other situations. Because there is no way that her reacting to a bf texting her once a day and checking that box is in any way needy on it's own. He's putting in less than the bare minimum for any partner (at least any person that I know IRL), so he's probably just not that interested in pursuing this relationship further. [/quote]
