I got a 4:30am text from this girl I went out with last night saying how much she wants to see me tonight. There’s really two things that bug me about it.

  1. It’s 4:30am.
  2. She knows I’m busy tonight.

Is she being sweet or crazy?”

Sleepy Texter,

Hmm.

There are definitely aspects about this that could be flattering. The eagerness to see you again is a plus. Your two concerns do definitely warrant attention, though.

Eagerness can be split into two sub-divisions: enthusiasm and anxiety. Enthusiasm is wonderful and healthy. Anxiety is overbearing and consuming. Which one this is depends on how much time lapsed between saying “goodnight” and 4:30am.

Her asking to see you even though she knows you’re busy, on it’s own, could be seen as her being cute. Cuteness, however, can lose it’s luster at 4:30am—It’s a unique hour. There are few things in life that warrant a 4:30am text and this is not one of them. She could easily have waited until a more decent hour.

You’re right to be wary and I would proceed with caution. This may very well be a fluke, but something tells me that she might have a touch of the crazies.
