some days i will text my girlfriend and say "morning beautiful" and she never replies to them. Well she replies but she never says "thank you" or anything like that. when i tell her in person she says "thanks sweetie" or "thanks babe"
i just think its weird she never says thanks in the text dont you?
What is her reply?
No, I don't think it's weird. The reason she's not responding is likely to be either; a) she's not a morning person or b) she's not the kind of girl who needs to be texted when there's nothing to say.
Stop sending them so often.
she will say something like "last night was fun" or "my brother is being a jerk today" or" she will say "morning"Quote:

its weird. like i dont know.
I'm missing something. So, she IS responding to your texts, but not saying 'thankyou'. What is she supposed to thank you for?Quote:

Fail. If you call her that all the time, then she considers it a term of endearment, and not a compliment that requires gratitude.
When I get a "greeting...beautiful", I don't say thank you. I reply with, "greeting...handsome/hot stuff", or just ask how his day is or something.
Agree 100% with namemyname. Because you say it all the time, she sees it as a term of endearment - just like if you called her 'honey' or 'sweetheart' every morning. I'm sure you would get a thankyou if she dressed beautifully for an evening out and you told her she looks stunning.Quote:

Also, compliments should be given without expectation of anything in return ;)
100% agree with Basil and Name. Epic fail. Please don't be one of those guys who expects a thank you... She's taking it as a pet name. Just be grateful that, when you send those texts, you get a reply. I can't count the number of times I've sent messages like that to people and rarely have I gotten a reply just saying "hi" or something.Quote:

Another possibility is that you are showering her with too many compliments on her appearance, and perhaps not enough on other traits that are actually meaningful. When overdone, compliments become annoying and sound artificial.
Excellent point. Being called beautiful on a daily basis would lose all meaning. And I'd much prefer a compliment on my personality anyway.Quote:

Or brains.
But not both: "Oh wow, you have such sweet brains" is never good to hear.
Would be awesome if she replied with "Barf!"
Could be worse...He could just stare at her chest and go, "You have such a big........erm...heart." lolQuote:

I like to use the compliment (rarely, though so it doesn't lose its value), "You know, you're really easy to talk to. You have a really gentle heart."
