FAQ
What to do when your boyfriend/girlfriend texts too much?
If you are serious about your relationship, it is normal for you to want to text your partner often.
Sometimes texting becomes a problem. You might feel compelled to respond immediately to messages sent by your partner if you are constantly receiving them.
This might lead to arguments between the two of you. This is why it's important to fully understand the expectations of your partner before you engage in a new relationship.
Also, talk to your partner. Tell your partner that you are concerned about how often he/she text you.
Ask them what they prefer. Perhaps you should respond only after a certain period of time has passed. Or maybe you should stop responding altogether.
Your partner shouldn't be in control of you. You're in control of your own life.

What causes love to fade?
Because we become used to one another, love fades. We become so familiar that we don't notice our differences anymore.
We lose sight on why we fell inlove with one another.
Then we wonder why aren't we happy?
You'll be swept off your feet when you fall in love. Everything else seems trivial. You only think about your partner.
You start to get tired of one another and you begin to see all the things you don't like about yourself.
Then you think, "I'm not sure if I really loved them/her after all."
This is because you have lost sight of the reason you were attracted to your partner. The result is that you compare yourself to your ex-partner.
You see that they were far better than yours.
This realization causes you to question whether or not you should continue with your relationship.
However, before you decide to end it all, consider these questions: Are you still enjoying being with your partner or are you ready to let go? Are you happy with your current life?
If the answer to both of these questions is yes, then you shouldn't break up.
Because you love being with your partner even when you are disappointed.
And you know that happiness is yours.
So don't let love fade. Keep loving until your partner loves you.
