    I'm not judging - I'm trying to paint a picture for everyone that if I have tons of people I'm talking to - I'm fully understanding what I'm getting myself into. If you're hot shit, drop these scrubs like tlc and move the hell on (it's honestly the vibe I can feel through all the replies). Click on the contact in your phone, click block number, drink a shot of vodka, live life

    We get the impression that is the case when you open up with "I'm a busy GIRL". Then go on about how guys won't leave you alone.

    On the other hand, do what I do. Stop responding. If they don't get it they aren't worth your time anyway.

    Listen, even if a poster online says they are a busy girl, it's never sexual - being a busy person never means sex 8D

    I am one of these constant texters. I'm like a 15 year old girl trapped in a 30 year old man's body lol But I am also one that can take a hint. If people tell me they are at work, I just tell them to let me know when they're up for chatting.

    *shrug* it is easier to lead an introverted lifestyle as a male. when you put yourself out there you can kind of pick and choose at your leisure.

    as a female, putting yourself out there is kind of like walking into a den of wolves. You can be a 4, go out of your way to avoid people and guys will still be talking to you, trying to fuck you.

    As a guy, you can be a 4 and not talk to anybody for an entire year.

    I usually just tell people something like, "Sorry, I'm busy". If they keep bothering me, I just do not respond any more. I've already said "I'm busy", so if that's not good enough for them, then I don't know what else can possibly work...

    Yeah me either, hence why I made the thread.

    Long story short there are 2-3 guys that I'm talking to that text me nonstop and it's fucking annoying, one of them will ask me what I'm doing at least once an hour during the workday. I tell them I'm working and it seems to go completely over their head.

    Right at this very second one of them is complaining about how mean I am because I only sent him a couple dozen texts today (23...I counted).

    How do I tell people nicely that I have better things to do than text all day long?
    Ask them for some money, they will quit calling.

    Send a text that says "I'm busy at Work, will text you when I'm finished."

    Saying I'm an introvert isn't secret code for "being autistic"...>.<

    Yeah...in regards to dating, I think it's important to note here that "getting attention" ≠ "getting quality attention from well-meaning individuals"; not sure if one can generalize that by gender or not.

    How is it that you have no friends? I am genuinely curious.

    If true that sucks and I'm sorry.

    Eh. When I'm busy, my replies back are perfunctory because I feel pressured to reply. Clearly I enjoy chatting with them more than I do not, otherwise I would have simply stopped talking to them.

    I enjoy conversing with them, I wouldn't interpret that as "enjoys the attention".

    Well I would say that these guys are creeps/losers for constantly texting you and never getting the message that you're not into them like that or don't want to be annoyed.

    But considering there are three or more doing it, sounds like you are the problem...

    I will admit, I am really bad with texting. It took me five months to reply to a friend's text once, no joke.

    I've gotten better about it but maintaining friendships can feel like a chore. Even when I genuinely enjoy the individual/our friendship.

    I thought you would have been in this thread earlier.

    Does it have to be nicely? I generally just ignore these types of people, and later on if they saw me, I would tell them I was busy. If they didn't get it, I would simply say, go away.
