She stopped texting you out of nowhere! Find out why
Communication is mandatory for any healthy relationship, so you should be worried when a girl randomly stops texting back. Find out possible reasons why she stopped texting and what to do when a girl stops initiating texts.
1. She may have ghosted you
It is common for people to exit our lives silently and without a trace. We have all been victims or accomplices in ghosting whenever we feel less welcome or useful in others' lives. Girls stay where they feel special and comfortable, and leave when they have overstayed their welcome.
If she texts you every day, then stops, you could have been a victim of ghosting. Such unprecedented exits leave one hanging and feeling crappy.
Some girls leave, not because they are offended, but upon finding out they no longer have a reason to keep chatting with you. You could have stopped making them laugh or smile. This usually happens when you fail to give her enough reasons to keep in touch. She may have realised you are incompatible and just wanted to move on without causing a “scene”.
2. She got a new phone or lost your number

If she just stopped texting you out of the blue, she may have lost your number or acquired a new phone. If this happens, resist the temptation of evil thoughts until you are sure that she willingly does not want to be in touch.
It is possible that she lost her phone or restored phone settings and, in the process, lost your contact details. If you cannot reach her on the phone, contact her on social media, assuming that she has no means of reaching you.
Whatever you do, stay calm and be open-minded. There is a possibility that she is also trying to connect with you. If she is available on social media and is not warming back up to you, then it is time to start trading your hopes.
3. She got super busy or ran into a problem
If a girl suddenly stops texting, you should rise above the thought that life revolves around you and try to understand why she cut communication. Girls have unique control of their lives that most guys do not realise.
Perhaps she suspended everything else to focus her energy on one thing that mattered to her at that moment. She may have left because you were distracting her from her work. Whether it is her education or career, you will have no choice but to respect her decision if she does not text back.
How do you know if she ran into a crisis that is dragging her down? Try to understand her whereabouts first before you act stupidly. Whatever the outcome, be a man enough to respect her decision.
4. You may have irritated her

If she was so into you then stopped texting on one random day, you could have gotten yourself in her bad books. Perhaps she is upset with you because of something you said or did to her.
Go through your recent chats to spot any instance that may have sparked her anger. Beware that some girls pick offences from things that men find reasonable.
She is likely avoiding conversation for fear that you may hurt her feelings again. Remember that most girls prefer not to share their inner feelings for fear that it may yield misunderstandings and open room for unnecessary arguments. If you remember offending her, do not shy away from presenting a genuine apology to regain her trust.
5. You got too creepy
Saying something creepy to a girl is the fastest way of turning her off. If she stopped texting you first, you may have proposed to get sexual with her before she was ready to take it. All those flirty messages and videos you shared may have turned her off.
Girls prefer to build trust before they can entertain those hot pickup lines and dirty conversations. You may have lost her because of a perverted conversation that took matters hastily. Reconstruct your approach to avoid losing her trust for good.
6. You became too pushy

Being too aggressive in winning a woman never ends well. If she stops texting at night or during the day, she may have realised you are too pushy and troublesome. She is probably uncomfortable with how you act around her.
You may lose your dream girl for trying to coerce her into a date when they are not ready. Asking so much from a random girl is damaging to your reputation. In many cases, men lose girls at the mention of private photos! Always stay patient for her to warm up before you can propose any form of commitment.
7. She thinks you are unoriginal
Girls get tired of hearing the same pickup lines all the time from different men. She's not texting you like she used to because you are unoriginal. Girls love real and creative men around them.
Are you using those intolerable old-school clichés when chatting with her? She may have disliked your chat for repeating what she has heard before. Women want to hear new things from time to time because that will make them realise that you are unique and special in your own way.
8. Girls stop texting when they develop new love interests

If she stopped texting you every day, chances are she is into someone else, however blunt it may sound. It is possible that she is no longer interested in you. She may be seeing someone else who is taking up all her time, leaving no room for you.
Boys and girls are highly secretive about their love life for fear that they may upset one another. She may have kept her new love interest on the low-key until she could no longer do it, but leave your life altogether.
Stopping to text is a sign that she has finally decided who she likes most. It may be about time you sought her attention or started to accept the new dawn of reality.
When to give up on texting a girl
It is important to recognise when to stop texting a girl who has gone quiet on you. Here are the signs to watch out for before deciding to stop texting her as well.
- She does not show reciprocity when you message her and instead gives one-word answers or does not respond in a manner that promotes further conversation.
- She gives you overly delayed and infrequent responses.
- She shows no effort to advance beyond just texting.
- You feel insecure or drained.
- People around you suggest it is time to move on.
- Her words and actions do not seem to match.
What to do if a girl suddenly stops replying to your messages
If a girl suddenly stops texting or replying to your messages, here are things you should consider doing:
- Give her space. It is wise to take a day or two before sending a follow-up message.
- Do not demand an explanation for her silence.
- Do not send accusatory or angry messages to her.
- When you make a follow-up after a day or two, keep the message casual.
- If she still fails to respond after trying all the above, consider moving on.
What does it mean when a girl slows down texting you?
A girl could slow down texting you for all the reasons explored above. Find out why she went slow before concluding anything.
Do girls stop texting to test you?
While some girls may stop texting to test you, this is highly unlikely. There are many reasons she could stop messaging you.
Do girls get attached through texting?
Yes, many girls get attached through texting. Frequent texting will inevitably make her feel attached, especially if the two of you are interested in building a relationship together.
It is normal to get confused if she stopped texting you out of nowhere. Most girls are real in their emotions, and so should men when they are around them. Women may get turned off by different things, especially when they feel out of place.
