What is wrong with saying I am resting for the night, I will talk to you tomorrow? I don't see anything wrong with talking to someone every day, especially if you like them. If I really like someone after a first date and I feel she likes me, I will text her, and call her later, and keep the momementum going, Now if I get the feeling she is not liking me, then of course I will stop talking to her. But if you really like someone, no matter when you met them, what is the harm in communicating with them when you feel like it?

I just don't have the time to talk to her everyday. A few times a week is cool but I have a new job that requires a lot of my time in addition to other obligations.

Does she not have a life or is she "hard-up" for a man?

Funny, lately the threads have been "he hasn't texted" or "she doesn't call unless I do"...

anyway, be up front with her. When I was dating my husband he told me we don't need to talk every day (it was the '90's so this was before texting and the popularity of cell phones). I was glad he was honest with me because I didn't want to be that clingy chick. There's just no need to talk/text 10 times a day. We're now married 15 years and I sometimes ignore his calls lol

Wow, if she's calling and texting THAT much without a response from you, I'd answer and say, "sorry, this isn't working out". She clearly doesn't understand boundaries, and I hope she doesn't know your address, lol. This is not a normal person.

I don't think she is hard up for a man. I just think she is really interested. Is she American or Foreign?

My guy is French and he calls/texts me ALL the time (I'm American). At first it bothered me and I considered him clingy, but if I don't talk to him for a while I get very upset with him! Lol.

We use Gchat at work, text inbetween and call each other every night if I don't see him that evening.

I guess I clung right on to him too.

If I really liked her otherwise I might tell her she needs to back off a bit, but calling that much right off the bat would be a pretty big red flag for me. I don't need to talk to someone I just met everyday. Like you, after a day at work I want to relax and unwind, no chat on the phone all night.

If you are interested in pursuing a relationship with this woman, you need to set some boundaries.

Default "I can't talk to you EVERYNIGHT......"

What's wrong with some distance?

Two options, tell her to go away.

Or bang her hard.

Simple. Just tell her the truth. She will respect you for that, and you don't have to feel bad. You can't change what you like and apparently you just aren't feeling her. It doesn't make you a bad person that your fellings aren't the same. However, stringing her along isn't cool either.
