Can anyone recommend an app that will automatically send SMS to my wife several times a day? Preferably at non-set intervals (so she doesn’t get it every day at exactly noon) and randomly selected “I love you”, “Your the best” etc. so I can focus on my work and still have her happy that she feels thought of throughout the day?
What the f?
Damn dude just text your wife instead of trying to automate your relationship…
The biggest problem is my ADHD, if I pick up my cell phone during the work day, its near impossible for me to get anything else done that day, because the internet exists. It probably makes me an asshole, but she’s been married to an asshole for 15 years.
Ok, this changes the story considerably, you might have mentioned that initially.
Same with me, but without the ADHD. When I have to do shitty jobs I hate, like accounting, I let the family know that right now I’m motivated enough to do %task and that they should leave me alone completely for that, cos otherwise that will never be completed. They learned to accept that.
So maybe instead of emulating sth that you’re not made to fulfil to nobodys fault you ever thought about explaining that facts to her so she can accept that? I do think she is rewarded with her own focus time afterwards, as compensation.
LOL! “explaing the facts so she can accept them” how long have you been married?
It doesn’t change the story and there is no need to put that in my OP, this kind of stuff has no reason being in an adroid forum.
Don’t listen to all the haters, man. ADHD is a bitch for remembering to do anything and I think it’s adorable you want to make sure your wife gets care and affirmation throughout the day from you. Whether you type the message yourself or set up an automation to send them, it doesn’t change the fact that you love her and you want her to know that. I think that’s beautiful.
I want this app, but to send me words of affirmation and love. 🥺
This is sorta fucked up. Is it too much work to set timers for you to send these texts yourself? Otherwise you’re, y’know, not thinking of your wife.
You could probably do this with tasker. I would like to say though, this sounds like a horrible idea. If your wife wants words of affirmation, automating that sounds like the exact opposite of what she’s looking for
why? She still receives what she wants, and I can stay focused on my work, sounds like a win-win to me.
yeah but it feels pretty callous to just have a machine sending her the words of affirmation and not you. I read your comment above, I have adhd and am easily distracted aswell. My girlfriend had a similar problem with me not being as available/talkative when we’re not in person, and she really appreciated it when I put the effort to text and call her more. My suggestion would be maybe to set a timer to remind yourself to text her instead2 of automating the whole thing. If the other apps on the phone are too distracting, maybe you can limit their screentime or even remove them, just make it harder to get to them somehow.
