1. He Texts You Nonstop
Waking up to a “good morning, beautiful” text message is sure to bring a smile to your face and give you an extra bounce in your step as you commute to work, but if homeboy’s following up with a whole slew of additional texts well before your lunch hour, you might need to pump the breaks. “If you’re always the one receiving the call, text or gchat, it tells you that he’s not getting the hint,” says Walsh. Whether you’re swamped at work and don’t have the time to continually check every single message or you just want a little space—which is totally okay—it’s best to be straightforward and let him know.
