He Texted Me First This Morning

How Taking a Communication Break Made My Relationship Stronger

My ex would text me “Good Morning” every single morning. Three years into our relationship, it was an expectation I held and no longer a pleasant reminder that he thought of me first thing in the morning. He texted me for another three years until we finally called it quits. He recently admitted that the “Good Morning” text had become a duty midway through our relationship and ceased being something he did because he wanted to. It had become an obligation for him.
