Tip for breaking the habit of checking for texts too often

I’ve been guilty of anxiously cradling my phone waiting for a response. It’s unhealthy but doing these have helped me a lot:

• If comfortable, ask for the other person’s work schedule or when the best time to contact them is. ie.) knowing that they have work from 6 am to 4pm, you should only expect to hear from them afterwards
• Only check your phone when you see or hear notifications, keep it close by but not on your person
• Consider occupying yourself (video games, cooking, reading, art, working out, watching a show etc.) away from your phone and only check during a break
• Plan dates and meet up. Even if it’s only for an hour, that’s the time when all/most of their focus is on you, which means a lot more than just receiving a text back.

I’d love to hear some of your advice
