I need help with texting girls

If you don't express your emotions and you end up confronting blockages, it's because yes, there are things in your subconscious that prevent you from communicating what you want to a woman you like. You don't have to focus on text messages. Because these blocks are deeper than that.

Ask yourself if you are afraid of being rejected. Because this way of talking to women often stems from a fear of being rejected. (I want to play it safe and act as a friend because I'm afraid of taking risks and losing her)
If you are afraid of rejection, don't avoid rejection. Accept it, embrace it. seek it out. compliment them, overcome fear, express how you feel without expecting anything in return. Because you're complete, you don't need women to be happy. You need to love yourself before wanting to have more (more relationships, sex...)
When you don't care about women's reactions because you are aware of your value, that's when you can express yourself fully.

And for that, you have to get rejected. Not once, not 10 times, not 100 times. Much more than that.

It has nothing to do with text messages. Put yourself out there
Don't chase validation and approval. You also have the right to say no and go away without saying a word if you feel the need to.

Also ask yourself : Do you consifer yourself as a boy, or as a man ? Do you see women as women or as girls ?

 

Man, I also find texting to be super-awkward way to make a connection. I don't think it's just you, or that there is something "wrong with you". It's just a difficult medium to flirt in. Real communication happens with chemistry, pheromones, glances, body language, etc.

And do you think you can force maturity upon yourself, by sheer force of will? Maturity comes with experience and time and trial and error. Why be afraid of being young and silly? Because, face it, we all have to go through that. An inexperienced person acting like they're experienced is not fooling anybody.

 

1 phone call = 1,000 text messages.
1 in-person date = 10,000 text messages

Start investing in real relationships instead of digital

 

At least phone call instead of text. You can explore a relationship regardless of the lockdown. Don't settle for worthless communication.
