You did it. You sent the guy you like a text, probably after asking your best friend to edit it and then writing it out in a note so he didn't see the start and stop of ellipses while you decided which emoji best gets your message across. OK, or maybe you don't agonize over it quite that much and sent it without a second thought.
No matter how you feel about texting the guy you're into, one thing is pretty much true across the board: Waiting for a response feels like being in purgatory. Here are a few things that might cross your mind before your phone pings with a reply.

| 14 Things Every Woman Thinks When Waiting for a Text Back |
No matter how you feel about texting the guy you're into, one thing is pretty much true across the board: Waiting for a response feels like being in purgatory. Here are a few things that might cross your mind before your phone pings with a reply.
- Go, me! You wanted to say something, so you texted him. That right there is applaudable, since the fear of seeming needy can sometimes keep women from making that kind of "move" (which is really so small, it can barely be considered a move at all).
- Hmm, still no response. Maybe he's busy. Isn't that what everyone always says about millennials? That it's all go, go, go with us?
- But he always has his phone on him. That's another thing our generation is known for. Unlike the rumor that we're all entitled, it's hard to be annoyed with this one because it's usually true.
- Maybe I should be busy. You're an awesome woman with better things to do than sit around, glaring at your phone. You know what they say: A watched phone never boils, or rings, or really does anything except defiantly remain silent.
- OK, what could he actually be doing? Is he playing basketball with his friends? Because that's understandable. Chatting up girls at a bar, not so much. You know it's totally normal for him to take his time responding, but liking someone can make your brain go a little haywire.
- Did I send this to the right person? Because sometimes your fingers almost misfire and send a sext to your dad. Triple-checking that you did, in fact, send it to the right person will result in a flood of relief.
- Putting the phone away now. Your plan is to hide your phone from yourself and do something distracting. Foolproof, right?
- Let me just check to see if he answered. But then a few minutes pass and you're positive an hour's gone by, and there's no way he still hasn't responded.
- Maybe I'll just make sure my phone's still working. You send an "answer this ASAP" message to your best friend, who replies faster than the speed of light.
- Yep, it's working.
- OMG, my phone's vibrating. SUCCESS!
- Oh. It's my mom. You love her, but the woman has the worst timing ever.
- You know, whatever. If he's going to be like this, I don't need him. Leaving you hanging for hours (or days, even) isn't exactly on your list of Prince Charming qualities.
- Wait, he answered! Finally. Hahahaha, he made a little joke. He's so cute. *Heart-eyed emoji*
