It's not normal.
Settle down on the emails. Try to fit all you need to say to about 1 every 2-3 days maybe.
Yeah, you're definately getting on his nerves. You won't be friends for long if you keep that up.
No. Talk to your psychologist, because when he finally checks his email, he'll putting you two on "break" for a while.
I'd call you a stalker not a friend.
How would you like to check your email and find 84 emails from one person? He's probably deleting most of them.
Just keep an open email in your "Drafts" folder and add to it through the day. You can then send it once or twice a week. Only he knows if you are getting on his nerves though.
not normal. now step away from the computer and do something like call that friend.
I think one a day is enough if he check his email once a week...
Yeah, if that were me getting that many emails from you, I would very quickly block any email's that you sent in the future.
it is not normal it's obssesive
maybe u like the guy or something
Yeah thats a wee bit on the stalker side.
Flooding his inbox like that is not a very nice thing to do.
well he mite want 2 aviod u b/c he mite think that u are obsesive and if he only checks his email like once a week and you send him stuff 12 times a day than that means that when he checks it you sent him about 84
emails.

No, it is not normal and it is extremely annoying. You are behaving like a stalker.
I think you know the answer is "yes". Yes, you're normal; yes, you are getting on his nerves......
When I get obsessed like that I put a limit on my behavior.....if you only allow 2 emails a day, then you have to make them good ones....
he can't meet all your needs....
see, cnvc.org
Have you asked yourself why you're doing this? You must have some sense, on a gut level, that you're not being "practical," or else you wouldn't have asked us for a "reality check."
You do realize, don't you, that if you e-mail someone 12 times a day, and he only checks his e-mail once a week, and you KNOW this, then it's sorta like TALKING TO YOURSELF?
Also, how would you like it if every time you opened your e-mail, there were a couple of hundred things in your in-box, and 84 were from one person? Would you think that that person was a pest? Would you even bother to open and read every e-mail?
What you're doing seems to be really counter-productive, so find a way to check your impulses.
I think he would get annoyed. end of story, i dont know this guy. maybe he likes getting emails. I do not. I still have 712 emails to go through and delete and read.
Too me, i hate having to read all this crap when i could hear all this in 5 minutes of talking instead of sitting for an hour reading tons of crap. Reading smiley faces, reading the same phrase over, the same bye, the same ttyl, the same goodnight, and i hate having to type that everyday 5 times.
Thats off topic but i just wanted to say that.
Depends, I forward a bunch of stuff to people daily. Not personal messages just stuff folks have sent me. If your actually sending personal messages that many times a day and he only checks once a week, I don't think he finds you that interesting.
you may be getting on his nerves, maybe if you have his number call him then you won't have to send so many emails!!
That's taking it a little far. And being a little pushy. Take it easy.
I want you to be really honest with yourself. Do you believe this is a good situation. If things were in the reverse how would you feel? After asking yourself those questions then think about what you can do to occupy your time in a healthier way that would give you a more even return. If you are lonely join a club or start a hobby. If you enjoy writing then begin to journal your thoughts and feelings...even starting about why you started emailing someone 12 X a day, knowing he would only look at his email once a week. Addicting habits can be reversed and replaced with positive actions!
you need to know that every thing's okay, that you are not alone and that there are people that care about you...you need not depend on this friend so much, be confident in yourself and learn to be okay with you. everything is going to be alright.
noooooooooooooooo thats not normal
No you're acting like a stalker. Cool it with the emails. Try to limit your emails to maybe 1 or 2 a week or mayeb call him if you have a cell phone. If you keep bombarding him with emails he'll think you're a stalker or you're clingy. Trying to horde somebody by emailing them or calling them several times a day never works.
I don't know if it could be considered "not normal," I mean, there has to be a good reason you email him so much. If I were you, I wouldn't do it though. You probably are getting on his nerves a little, if not even more. If you send him too many emails, he might not put as much time into reading them. Whatever you have to say might lose some value if you say too much.
Here's what you do: Whenever you think of something to say or email him about, you write it down as a short memo. Then later that night, you put all of it together into 1 message. Just save up your thoughts throughout the day and email him just before you go to bed. If you forward him stuff, just cut back. Only forward things he would like. Either that or you call him once a day.
