How to Make Him Scared of Losing You Through Text – 11 Ways

When I was with my ex, I had to learn how to make him scared of losing me. It was frustrating to be taken for granted.

I figured out the perfect way to make him worry, and I believe it can help others in the same position. I’ve compiled a list of 10 effective ways to make him scared of losing you through text and in person.

How to Make Him Scared of Losing You Through Text

1. Don’t Answer His Questions

When a guy asks a question, you don’t need to answer it. This will make him more curious, and you will be on his mind. Doing this will get you more of an investment from him.

For example, if he asks you how your day is going, or if you had fun last night, just ignore or change the subject.

2. Be Unavailable

When you are always available a guy may not appreciate you. So, do the opposite, and be busy most of the time. Don’t answer his calls, don’t say yes when he asks to FaceTime, don’t commit to plans, and don’t be around when he has free time.

3. Talk About Fun With Friends

Casually mention plans you had with other friends, and go on and on about how amazing it was. This will make him realize you have a life outside of him, and he will wish he was part of the fun too.

4. Take Long to Respond

When he texts don’t text back immediately. Wait a few hours, or a few days, depending on how you usually respond. Make it clear that he is no longer your priority.

5. Be Less Interested

Stop asking him about his day and about his life. When he tells you something that he did, just say a few words, instead of asking all about it. For example, if he tells you he got together with his best friend, say, “that’s cool.”

He will see your lack of interest, and want to invest more.

6. Talk About a Guy Friend

The best way to get a guy to fear losing you is to talk about other guys. Talk about your guy friend and how amazing he is. Mention that you hung out and had the best time. 

If you don’t have any guy friends, mention the cashier at Starbucks, or the teller at the bank. Talk up another guy, even if it isn’t true. This will cause your guy to get jealous, which will lead to him wanting you more.

7. Cancel Plans

Nobody likes to be canceled on. When you cancel plans it will upset your guy, and also make him curious as to why you are canceling. 

He will realize that he is not the most important thing in your life. Canceling plans is not a nice thing to do to someone. These texts will make him realize he’s losing you.

8. Mention a New Hobby

Mention something new you have gotten into that does not involve him. Talk about how much you enjoy it and how great it is. This should get him jealous and make him feel replaced.

9. Don’t Always Be Agreeable

Don’t always say yes to everything he suggests. If you have plans and he wants the two of you to go out with his friends, tell him you are not in the mood and would prefer a chill night with him. 

If he wants to go to a specific restaurant or bar you always go to, tell him you want to try some place new. If he suggests going to a concert together, tell him you don’t like the artist. 

10. Mention Taking a Break

Mention that you were thinking the two of you should take a break. Don’t stress it or make a big deal, just casually mention it. Wait to see how he reacts.

11.Tell Him There’s Something You Need to Discuss

Text him that you need to talk to him, and then don’t text again for a while. This will make him very curious and worried. Many things will go through his mind, and he will probably try to get in contact with you.

When you do talk to him, just say it was nothing, or that you just wanted to say hi. Doing this will stir up his emotions.
