Alot if not most guys are task oriented and not verbal, so they hate being distracted in whatever they are trying to do.

The only communication by the phone I'm
interested in is a short call to set up
a meeting, or the one helping us find
each other.
.
As a matter of fact I'm only interested
in phone calls. I don't like text
messages.
My opinion is that text messages are
cheap. So if You can't be bothered to
spend a bit of money for a short
conversation, I shouldn't be
seeing You. It's easier to talk,
than to text. And it's more difficult
to lie and hide things when You talk.
Also when You talk You have to answer
immediately, instead of after an hour,
4 hours or even a day. And I really
hate it when a conversation that would
last 20 seconds to a minute stretches
over hours or days.
.
So another reason could be that if
someone is texting and it's not about
begrudging money, it might be about You
being ashamed to talk to me over the phone.
And that's a strange thing.
.
So if You're calling or texting me for
something completely unimportant, especially
when I'm concentrating on something, I might
be a bit irritated.

"Too much" is a term up to perspective. You could text him twice in a week and he might consider it "too much." Personally, I hate using the phone and prefer text messages because then I can answer them at my leisure. If he's someone who feels he has to answer them right away, then I can see how an obsessive compulsive person would think someone texts them too much. Sometimes guys do things to get their girls mad because we know how to push buttons and get a reaction. Besides, if the guy started texting you a lot, would you have a problem with it? I'm guessing you would consider him obsessive, if you hadn't already become infatuated with him. +3

how much are you texting him?
if you are bombarding him with 20 texts per day, yeah, you are being over bearing.
If you are texting him twice a day and he is complaining, you may want to consider what he really wants from you. When men want sex, but consider any other contact as an "intrusion" into their life, there is a really good chance you are being used.

If you don't live together then twice between dates should be enough. Give him a break.

How dizzy ARE you lady? This is his opinion about HIS opinion, not yours to say yes or no to. He says you are texting HIM too much, get it? If he feels it is too much, even if it is once a year, it is HIS opinion and by ignoring your needy cry for irritating attention, you can't take it. Stop texting the guy. Period.

You must of texted him while he was watching porn.
by AnonymousGirl on October 29th, 2009
Maybe he just doesn't like being flooded with text messages. You may think that you don't text him a lot, but that doesn't mean he is going to agree with you.

Same reason we are driven mad by incessant talking...
by Hardcore Conservative on October 27th, 2009
Why don't you try talking to him first. It's much easier than texting. My wife pulls the same shit with me. She won't answer the phone when I call, but will answer back if I send her a text. I'm the opposite. I won't answer her text if she wants to carry on an extended conversation. You have to call me if you want to do that.

Women are communicators, men are doers.
Do you text him at work? Big no no.
How often is to much?
by Patrick on October 27th, 2009
Being a guy, I'm talking from personal experience. I can't text. It's difficult! I prefer to talk on the phone. He might be happier if you ring him because from what I can gather men just cannot text.:)
by WritingHome on October 27th, 2009
From personal experience I can tell you that it just starts to get obnoxious. If you don't have anything in particular to talk about, it's just annoying. I hate perpetuating pointless conversation through text messaging, so I tend to not answer when conversation gets dull. Also, depending on the context of your texts, it could be coming off as insecure, suggesting that you need to always be in contact with him and checking up on what's going on with him in order to feel loved or wanted. Insecurity is extremely annoying to a lot of guys.

Are you interrupting him while he's working? That could get him fired. I'd be pissed too.

Is 3,000 times a month too many?
by Merriment on October 27th, 2009
It looks like the guy got mad because he felt you texted too much and unless you are in a relationship alone, his opinion on it counts.
Give him a little texting silence and he will likely text you more.

Ask him when a good time to text or call him is.
by SoulFire on October 27th, 2009
Good answer SoulFire.
by Timjon on October 27th, 2009
Anonymous, you should be grateful you have a guy who takes his studies seriously and know how to use his time efficiently. As SoulFire says, ask him when is a good time to call or text him. If you love him you will want him to do well in whatever he does, wouldn't you?
