What Do The Five Dots Mean
I sent my girlfriend a text message. In the text message, I asked "Are we
still boyfriend and girlfriend." A couple of minutes later, I didn't get a
response, so I sent another message saying "I would really appreciate a
response." She sent this reply " yes David..... I have to say its kind of
getting old having to tell you over and over again.. I m not sure why you
worry so much.. I have a class now..so I'll talk to you later "
Question: She used excessive periods after saying “yes david”. She used
five periods after that sentence. She only used two periods in her other
sentences. She put extra space between "yes david....." and the next
sentence. When I copy and pasted the exchange of texts into advicenators,
the extra space didn’t show up, but it was there in the original message.
You can’t see the extra space here, but it was in the original message.
She didn't use this extra space between her other sentences. What do the
five dots in "Yes David....." mean? I understand they mean she is annoyed,
but do they directly express annoyance or do they mean that something was
unwritten and it is up to the reader to assume what was supposed to be
written?

Looks like you pay a little too much attention to detail I must say. Don't worry about how many periods or spaces she has used in the message, rather focus on what she said.
I'm assuming you've asked her this a number of times before. Is there a particular reason why you keep asking her this? If there is, then just talk it out. If she said what she said in that way, it's easy to see that she is annoyed of repeating herself.
Just chill out. Unless she's made it clear to you that you and her are not together, then don't sweat it.

Dear God boy. You are going to get yourself dumped by every sane woman out there unless you get a hold on your obesseive insecurities.
SHE TOLD YOU PERCIESELY WHAT SHE MEANT.
She didn't lie or mislead or imply or ask you to 'read between the lines.' Her punctuation wasn't the damn message. The girl was stunningly and respectfully clear to you about what she was feeling.
You are lucky enough to have a girl who didn't play games with you at all. She told you what she was feeling honestly and directly. That was really good of her and you should listen and respect someone when they are up front with you like that.
You don't need to assume anything. She told you exactly what she meant:
She is tired of reassuring you.
Frankly, she is probably also annoyed at the passive-aggressive way you badgered her for a response as well. This is the kind of “Love me! Pay attention to me!” behaviour that is only acceptable when a 3 year old feels this way about thier mommy. It is not acceptable in a rommantic relationship.
If you aren’t getting what you need from this relationship – end the relationship.
But stop being a whiny, needy bastard. No one wants a passive-aggressive partner who is always begging them for reassurance.

It means she's annoyed as fuck that you're insecure and constantly bringing it up. Chill out and live your life buddy.

haha she's pissed off. Because you have to ask her if you are going out with her. That would piss me off too if my boyfriend asked me if we were dating and I knew it already and had to remind him. Whenever a girl puts a period or dots or a lot of them it means she's mad and annoyed. You are over-thinking this through. Don't worry about it. It's just girl language when a girl puts periods or dots or is saying like 2 words notice that she's not in a good mood or she's mad at you. Try to make her happy and don't ask questions like that. Ask her what she's doing or something fun so she won't get pissed off like that. Good luck!

Oh wow, David, you are thinking this out THOROUGHLY. Don't. You are pushing her away because of it. The dots mean a few things: she is annoyed, she is tired of repeating herself, and she won't repeat herself again.
If you weren't her boyfriend she'd make it CLEAR. Don't obsess over her or else you'll lose her okay?
Maybe something happened in your past where you are afraid a girl will leave you, but this girl doesn't seem like she is going to leave any time soon, otherwise she would have told you off ten text messages ago.
Don't ask her again, or you're through bud.
