i been in a relationship for 6 months now, i usually talk to my girl for hours on end on the net or on the phone, but should i just block her on msn and only call for 15 mins at a time to raise the interest levels back up again?
"She Laughed All Night. Then She Ghosted You. Here's Why."
Dinner ran three hours. She laughed at everything. You walked her to her car thinking this one's locked in.
Then: nothing. Two texts. No reply. What happened?
You did what most men do on a great date. You filled every silence, answered every question, and left her with nothing to wonder about. No mystery. Nothing to sit with when she got home.
Rule 3 of the "22 Rules" changes the ending: tell her a little, hold back the rest, and let her imagination do the chasing. The ghosting stops too.
how long to talk to girl for each day

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.
id advise against blocking, because if she finds out you blocked her, she'll be real mad. So just be online less, or get a alternative SN. And if you feel like it call her less. It really depends on how things are between you too.Originally posted by WingS

You better not make any drastic changes to what you're doing now all of a sudden because it will set off major red flags to her. Just gradually decrease the length and frequency of the online and phone conversation over time. That will give her a chance to get used to not talking as much without causing her to feel like something is wrong.Originally posted by WingS

Unless you are living together, this should never happen.
"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"
You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.
And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.
Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.
The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.
it actually said i been with her for 6 months, but we've been talking for nearly 2 years for 6-9 hours a day, but i feel that msn is causing more arguements then necessary...Originally posted by bfl
jesus, 6 hrs a day??!
EDIT: the truth is im pissed off because she showed me the profiles of her to ex's and they were thug wannabe's and i thought she was nothing like that and would steer clear, she told me she had no experience (sexually) with boys before me...but now i feel shes lied to me...what should i do?

I've said this before and I'll say it again.
Instant Messaging is the lowest but quickest form of communication. Use it sparingly such as for "Hey babe, good night" or "I'm getting off work now, see you at Borders at 8 tonight" - it is not intended for long convos.. and if the convo starts getting long.. try to cut it off within half an hour.
Well really dunno what you can do. If you call it quits and say "I'm not goin to IM" anymore so you won't have long convos or arguments - she might think you're up to something.... to add a little more pessimism to your relationship.. I see a dark path in a dark tunnel ahead of you and the candlelight is very far away.
