I believe that one of the hardest things in life is self-control. It can come easy in some situation and terribly hard in others. Something I wonder is whether or not guys have to practice their self-control as much as girls do when it comes to them?
As girls we sit and wait on the guy. We sit and wait and we keep waiting. We wait for him to make the first move, to text first, to make plans, to just be the first to show some kind of attention towards us. We don't want to text them first because we feel like we are going to be bothering them. We tell ourselves that if they wanted to talk to us or see us they would put the effort in. And when they don't we sit on pins and needles at home, at work, out with our friends, anywhere we are and we will constantly check our phone hoping there is a text there and we uncontrollably check social media to see what he's been posting and liking.
Some say life's to short, so text him first, but that's when we tell ourselves he would text us if he wanted to talk to us. So we don't. Then I wonder what if he is waiting for us to make the first move? What if he is sitting on pins and needles as well waiting for a text from us? What if he feels like he is bothering us? So then it could be the same situation both ways and no one wants to make the first move.
So I ask again do guys have to have practice their self-control just like us girls are having to do in order not to text him or does it really not bother them as much as it bothers us?
