Double texting is not your friend.

You know that feeling you get after you have double or triple texted someone. Where you feel like you are glued to your phone to see what their response is. You're unable to concentrate on anything, you want to die, punch someone or even worse text "nvm. just ignore my last 17 messages." Do boys get that feeling? Or do they just text until their bored and forget about you, pass out or find some other girl to answer their texts.

Is it wrong that I'm so bad at being passive aggressive and hate being angry that I want to text my boyfriend back, even though I'm still somewhat hurt and extremely irritated, and know deep down he's probably only texting me to give me a taste of my own medicine - that sickly sweet double texting medicine? I want to just put him out of his misery because I know that's all I want when I'm the excessive texter culprit.

But I don't even know if they get that feeling. So how long is long enough to get across the message that you're mad and you're not going to let someone be mean to you constantly, but you still want to stay together?

It's been 20 minutes. Is 30 minutes long enough? Should I wait an hour? If I figure it out, I'll definitely let you know.

In the meantime, just know double texting is never a good thing unless you need to correct an embarrassing autocorrect or a typo. Even if you don't correct it, they're bound to text back "what?" if it doesn't make sense and then you don't seem like a psycho. Boys are different when it comes to communication, unlike girls who are waiting around for someone to say something, anything to them, boys won't even notice their phone is going off. The only way to win is to play the game their way, which is easier said than done.
