After the initial breadcrumb and an overly enthusiastic response from you, the man knows you aren’t used to this attention from such an attractive man.

This level of enthusiasm spells desperation to him, and he immediately categorizes you as someone he uses for an ego boost and keeps on his backburner.

He proceeds to send sporadic texts, likes on social media, memes, etc., so that he stays in your consciousness.

Yes, he has no intention of asking you out on a date.

There are other women he is prioritizing right now that he deems to be more physically attractive than you.

Nevertheless, he is fully aware that there are no guarantees that any one of these women will work out.

By breadcrumbing, he doesn’t only get an ego boost from how you enthusiastically respond but also keeps you on the backburner as someone he could potentially hook up with on a slow Saturday night.

With this intention, he communicates in some fashion every so often so that he is someone who stays on your mind.

The notion that you go about your day thinking about him and wondering about the next time you will hear from him is yet another way he gets an ego boost.

Since he doesn’t receive as enthusiastic of a response from the women he has prioritized over you and is far more physically attracted to, he loves having this kind of effect on you.

When you shoot his ego and self-esteem into the stratosphere whenever he breadcrumbs you and you enthusiastically respond, he has a surge of energy.

He can take that energy with him to go about his day.

It even gives him a confidence boost in how he goes about courting the women he has prioritized over you.

If he so happens to have a day where his self-esteem is at a low point, he pops back into your social media feed and sends you a like, meme, emoji, complimentary text, etc.

Yet again, you fall for the bait by replying with a lot of excitement.

This suddenly boosts his self-esteem on a day he desperately needed it.

But that is all you are good for.

He is intent on working on other girls he has prioritized over you, even though they don’t give him anywhere near the same level of enthusiasm and energy as you do whenever he interacts with them.

Sadly, he is too caught up on how physically attractive they are regardless of the fact they don’t give him anywhere near the level of enthusiasm you do whenever he interacts with them.

Any attractive man who sends sporadic texts, memes, likes on social media, etc., is clearly showing that he is using you for his own personal gratification.

Unless a guy is consistently communicating with you and in a meaningful way, you should avoid him.

This means that if you were to respond to a text, like on social media, or meme with something that is designed to open a back-and-forth conversation, what he does next is critical.

If you don’t hear back for several days or more and the response completely ignores the conversation you were inciting, he is intent on breadcrumbing you.

That is your cue to not respond to him and move on.
