i got angry because my boyfriend was'nt able to text the whole they. we don't see often that's why i want him to text me everyday to ease worries. he got angry and told me that he is tired of texting that often even i am the one who gives him the prepaid load just for him to text me.

It's not wrong to ask but to demand... well, I won't say it's wrong but it's unwise. Don't make him feel that you're trying to be commanding or that you're dominating him. Let him do what he wants. Men, usually, they don't like texting. Sometimes, they want space. Yes, you might have lotsa space since you don't see each other as often but well maybe for him texting frequently is the same. Not to defend him or anything but am trying to tell you that you don't have to demand things to any man. They will if they want or if they feel like it. Let him be.

Well "demanding" text messages from a boyfriend or girlfriend is wrong because it kind of show some signs of being possessive which is not good. I think it will just lead to arguments. If your boyfriend really loves you, i don't see the reason why he won't text you even just to ask you how you are doing. I think being pushy is not healthy in any romantic relationships. I think your boyfriend is telling the truth. Sometimes too much texting is too exhausting in a sense that he won't be able to function well with other things because he needs to text you.

i think you should give your BF some space, maybe he doesn't like the feeling that he has to report to someone every time. you can try to talk to him to explain that you are only worried about him that is why you ask him to text. But don't demand him or get mad at him if he doesn't text. I don't text my husband during the day either, unless i need to tell him something important. If your BF really cares for you then he will voluntarily text you because he misses you and not because you require him to.

If you trust him, then there's no need for text messages everyday. And for a change, maybe you can text or call him instead. Don't try to demand too much because he will get tired if you do that too much.
