When You Stop Texting Mid Conversation
Well for me It's beacause it's hard to get my quirkiness and humor through to the other person through txting. It's also kind of draining because you always have to think of the right thing to say for the most part, so I guess it's just kind of draining sometimes. Then theirs other times I just get really distracted xD
When I do it; it's probably cause the text ended with a sentence from the other person that requires no answer, or they ended with an "Ok." And I leave it at that.
I also ended cause I got distracted and forgot I was texting. I fall asleep...lol. And then in the morning I'd finish what I was saying. Or because the person took to long to answer back and I go about my business since I don't sit and wait for replies.
Me and my cousin do it all the time to each other. She might get distracted or I might get distracted and then the very next day we pick up right were we left off. I don't apologize cause we already know it's not on purpose and we don't take it personal.
However; with a person who doesn't know me that well; say a friend or someone I'm talking to, I'll apologize and say why I didn't reply. I always try to at least explain why I didn't text back so they won't think it's lack of interest on my part.
But it can be all the above. Because I still have a life and need to keep up with it. So if it doesn't require a reply, I won't reply back. Then the text is followed by "What you doing." And we pick it up from there again.

But for me, it's just rude, I never drop off of a text suddenly. Why? Again, it's rude and I don't want anyone doing it to me, if it happens that the person I'm communicating with drops more than once I just stop text messaging altogether forever.
I do not communicate during the dating phase either via text, no no no, just won't do it, it's encouraging laziness, men get lazy, distracted and bored when they don't have to pick up the phone and make an effort.

It is rude....lol. More so I feel with strangers, or someone I'm talking too, not dating, but becoming friends with. I usually text because there is so much chaos in my household. If I do phone calls it has to be during the weekends.
Your right texting does make man lazy...lol. For now in just texting family members. But I agree a hundred percent it's rude. I'll keep it in mind when I do start talking to someone, that way from the beginning we can practice good communication habits _??
LOL Oh Sagi I wasn't saying you're rude, please don't take it that way.
When I met my husband I would not use text, social media, email to communicate unless it was an emergency, he did not like it at first, no he hated it lol but later he admitted he grew closer to me because of it.
I used to text all the time especially a man I was dating but I recognized how things just went downhill communication wise, also noticed how using technology encourages a man to be superficial thus I decided I wouldn't use social media, text, email to talk to a man I'm interested in and it worked for me, it may not work for others though.
I remember how shitty I would feel when I'm being dropped, it feels like I'm not important enough. Wouldn't any woman feel that way though? I dunno I just don't like it lol.

I find it rude as well. However, it happened a few times with my Aqua ex and I forgave him, because I knew he was in bed, it was past midnight and he had to wake up early.
He never apologized for falling asleep though, unless my last text said something like "WAKE UP, your red wine is staining the bed sheets and your candle set the curtains on fire".

Oh no, I wasn't taking it personal. I agree with you. Because when it's been done to me; I begin to over analyze the reason why the person stopped texting me. And if you have a Virgo moon like me, over thinking is no good. Makes you assume the worst....lol.
But no I was simply agreeing and thinking that yes; texting does make man lazy as well. I think through text so much can be misunderstood, cause you can't really listen to the persons voice and their tone. So you have to assume how the message is being given. A lot get lost in translation with text messaging.
Don't worry I wasn't taking it personal. I agree with you_??_
I have never done this... I don't enjoy texting that much but I won't leave you hanging. I will tell you to call me later or something like that.
I have some aquarian friends that might do that. They don't care enough about the conversation or they have something better going on.
I think its sweet that he lets me know why he dropped off. 🙂
ISN'T IT ENOUGH THAT I E MAIL AND PM (ONLY SPECIAL PEOPLE)
NOW SOMEONE WOULD SUJEST I TEXT
I DO NOT TEXT

same here.
+1 Sagi...I agree 100%
As an Aqua I don't drop off but from what I'm reading here some Aqua's do the dropping off thing, maybe they aren't being mentally stimulated so they get bored and drop off, hmmm
I hate communicating over the phone, definitely don't like text messaging (weird since everyone is plugged in) but it sounds like there are other Aqua's that don't care for it as well.

Yep I do this...most times I feel it's because the conversation has come to a natural end and there isn't anything more to say on the matter so I trail off; other times the person in question may go on a subject I'm not interested or I get bored so I trail off or something new and exciting has come on the scene so I trail off.
With some people I have to make my excuses to stop the convo there and then, because they take offence but with the Aqua I was seeing he got it and vice-versa. We would just pick up conversations days/weeks later. It was never an issue or seen as a disrespect on both parts.
Along with my flakiness this is also something I could work on, but I really don't like doing the texting thing anyway. I prefer to speak face-to-face.

My BFF is a Sag and two days later I'll get a response to a text I sent. She's like "I just saw your text". She is the busiest person I know and never checks her phone. One time she responded one day later and I teased her about being Johnny-on-the-spot with texting back and complemented her how quick it was. She was like "I know! I'm doing so good!!!" lol
That's just how she is. No harm, no foul. If you really need something you just have to call her or contact her fiance. 🙂
My Aqua ex was a texting addict and got me sucked into it. He texted me before work, during lunch breaks, back to his home, after dinner and before going to sleep. All day, every day. On the way to his home, he sometimes even pulled out of the highway and stopped his car to text. We exchanged at least 100 texts every day.
My average daily texting before and after him was about 6 texts 🙂.
I wonder who is he texting now?

For me it's about the level of comfort and love for the person
Some relationships/friendships aren't 100% secure, which is why people start to get worried the minute there's an interruption in the flow of communication. They start getting nervous, anxious & a million scenarios play out in their head b/c the deep rooted problem is that they don't fully trust, KNOW, or feel 100% secure in the relationship.
My best friend & I do this to each other all the time. It doesn't bother either of us b/c we have a very secure friendship. I know that when she stops texting it's b/c she's busy or doesn't wanna talk or got distracted by something that was able to keep her attention longer than I could.
So when this happens, I don't walk away thinking she's rude or less of a friend lol I feel very secure in our friendship so any interference or interruption in the flow of communication doesn't bother me. I trust that if somewhere were wrong or that if she started feeling different about me, she'd tell me!
So again, it's about how much you trust that the person would be honest with you in the event that they stopped talking to you b/c of something personal.
As an Aqua, I don't have a bunch of meaningless friendships. I'm either extremely close to you or we're not anything at all. I won't even consider you a "friend" unless I feel 100% secure in the friendship. So when a friend of mine suddenly disappears, my sense of security in the friendship doesn't allow me to take it personal or to start thinking of all these worse case scenarios.
If I start dating someone or notice this disappearance stuff with a new friend, I'd be annoyed. Not b/c what they're doing is worth that much anger, but b/c I recognize that me taking it personal has more to do with ME & me not feeling 100% secure with the relations that we have. B/c I haven't known them long enough, I'm not as comfortable believing that they suddenly disappeared w/o it being b/c of boredom, something personal or lack of interest.

I don't do this... it drives me crazy when other people do it to me, and I like to practice treating others the way I would like to be treated... so this is a no go.
I will however drop off if the last text that is sent doesn't require an answer or response and I don't feel like texting.

Question for you guys that say this happens to you. What exactly is this mid text stopping? I will texts friends, we chat for a few, catch up, discuss plans or make plans. Conversation has run its course. Isn't the texting going to stop? Or do you ask your aqua friend a question and no response? I text my friends but I don't keep texting for hours an hours. A conversation does end at some point. Or is it more of they don't even say "hey gotta go, catch u later"? I'm asking cause I don't tell my friends I gotta go and they are the same with me. Do you guys tell them when it's time for you to stop texting? Maybe they stop because you stopped. Two way street with texting.
This remids me of a situation where I sent an individual a gift for their wedding. And they sent a thank you. And the female wanted to know if I got their thank you because I didn't send them a thank you for thanking me. Where. Would it end the post office would make a fortune you thanking me. Then me thanking you for thanking me. : )
Madness I tell ya
maybe they're drunk and pass out?
I'm a chatty person via texting and verbally so I get the conversation flowing. When my mates on the other end are responding with 1-2 word answers i just give up mid way. If the response is late it can get annoying if you needed an answer at that moment.
I'm actually going through that right now..I messaged my Aqua friend early this morning coz i had a quick dream about him that he was in hospital and in pain and with me dreams where are my dream is very specific is most of the time true. He hasn't responded to me which is kinda worrying.. but the way he is he'll reply in a few hours haha..

Say you and I start texting, we send a couple messages to and from each other, then you ask me a question, and I don't respond.
That's what is meant by stop texting mid-conversation.

Ok just checking as to what was being said. I always reply unless I'm working.. soon as I'm able to respond though I will. My friends know my work schedule so I don't really get that type of issue. Now if it's what I was getting at.. the conversation that is just bantering and there comes a point where you can tell the conversation is basically over.. I won't keep texting.
My Aqua BFF does this to me ALL the time. We'll be texting back and forth for awhile in the middle of a conversation and he disappears for hours/days, whatever... And then we pick up or he messages me with a random thought. It has been like this for as long as I've known him.
Makes me crazy sometimes, but he has a spidey sense that let's him know when I really need to chat with him I guess, because he always comes back around.

I know this is an aquarius thing. I know I've seen a lot of people complain about this trait. However, I'm used to it, it doesn't bother me and I don't take it personal, so I'm not complaining.
When it happens with us, I'll say something...no response....2 hrs/6 hrs/12 hrs later I get a text just like the conversation never stopped, picked up from where we left off. Or I'll get a text saying sorry, fell asleep or sorry phone rang and I forgot we were texting. It's become an ongoing joke between us and now when it happens I just laugh. Well, I'll be honest, sometimes it's irritating, but usually not a big deal. I'll either ignore it and go about my business or send another text back like 'Don't know where you went, but sleep well babe, talk to ya tomorrow'.
I'm just curious about reasons for it:
Is it:
Boredom with the conversation?
Falling asleep?
Interruptions?
Set your phone down and get distracted?
Phone rings and you forget you were texting?
Get busy and don't have time?
Someone comes over?
I've seen (and done) all of the above, just wonder what your viewpoints are. Thought it might be an interesting and fun conversation.
It's not often I leave people hanging and when I do it's mainly because of the reason in bold (it has happened quite a few times sadly). Also if something comes up I'll just let them know, just say I have something else to do or whatever.
I think of it as very rude, something people should apologize for.
does it matter?
theyre boring
theyre boring
Do it all the time
dun matter a shit what it mens
I drop off for many reasons.
- I do get bored with conversations. Especially if the receiving person isn't feeding into my quirkiness. Keep it light and funny and entertaining.
- I truly do fall asleep. I LOVE being in constant contact with someone, and have been known to even talk on the phone until I fall asleep. But I also am usually talking to more than one person, just to stay mentally stimulated. I've actually been hassled because the person on the phone can hear my phone go off with texts, and can hear me texting back. Even though I can hold all those conversations without skipping a beat.
- They just aren't that amusing. As awful as it sounds, if you're boring, always sad/depressed/complaining, I will go find someone else that has my wits constantly working.
- I actually prefer talking on the phone. I have such a unique sense of humor compared to my social circle, that a lot of times my humor isn't expressed via text. If you have to explain it, it's not funny, and usually during texts I have to explain my randomness.
I think for me, and a lot of aquarians, it's about keeping them on their toes. Not getting "worn in" so to speak. If someone feeds into my jokes, and can give it right back to me, I can talk to them for hours. If it's simple how was your day, and I miss you conversations, I will wait to respond to those until I'm more mentally stimulated and can handle the lack of excitement.

Still no reply... and as soon as I forget and move on, i know im gna get a response back..

I kinda feel like if this is the case, then it prevents you from moving on. Best to ignore and keep moving on.
My feelings are if someone isn't into keeping in touch or lazy about responding, they're not worth the time. A person who doesn't respond isn't worthy of your attention. There are a lot of other people out there who would be happy to have your attention. I see it as a weeding out process.
I had a guy, a virgo, not respond for two weeks (we hadn't been talking or dating long), then I went out with another guy and found my aqua. The previous guy was begging for my attention, but it was too late. I found out later that the virgo is a player and pretty much labeled an alocholic around town. So glad I didn't waste any time with him!!!!
When I read the title I thought you meant that someone started texting but then stopped halfway through what they were writing and never sent it. Haha, I'd be able to relate to that, too, though. When I stop talking mid conversation it's because: A.) The conversation is going no where. There's some people where I want to stay in contact with them but it's almost painful to try to keep up a conversation with them because it's always circular and boring. B.) I get distracted. I read the response, look at my computer, and forget that I ever got a text. C.) If I find myself in an important conversation in person I would rather be disrespectful to the person I was texting and not respond rather than respond to a text while having this in person convo. D.) Whatever you said last wasn't important so I didn't reply.
There's really never any other reasons. If I'm falling asleep, I'll let you know. If I'm not distracted yet but know I'm going to be without a doubt I'll tell the person that. But, I'm not an aquarian, so my response is just my own. Sometimes I dislike just missing the cusp of aquarius.

Thats true. I've had times where he randomly starts to message me and if i dont reply back straight away he still carrys on messenging till i give him a response.. and I end up just melting and giving in..lol I do need to move on. The attention he gives me is very random..I'll have to just move on.. Its getting to a point where i deserve better. Its just a shame coz i did want it to work.
thank you for your advice trucap.. it has really helped me. x
Yes I stop texting when I get bored with the conversation, I also hang up the phone without saying goodbye when the conversation gets stale. My friends have started doing it as well 🙂

Its strange how that happens.. things always happen for a reason. Bad has too happen for the good to come into place. I'm glad you met your perfect guy. x
Thanks, Angeleyes!! He still frustrates me sometimes, but he's proven through his actions he's a keeper and he treats me well and spoils me!
truecap,
Thats sweet. how does he show his love to you through his actions? (not talking about sex here) lol

Yes, I'm used to it by now!! Actually, if he didn't frustrate me occasionally, I'd wonder if something was up. lol!! I also realize, the frustration keeps me interested and tells me how crazy I am for him (otherwise, I wouldn't care).

He makes it clear that our relationship is not all about sex. He cooks me dinner, he opens doors, he offers a hand when I'm getting up from sitting, he contacts me every day, he fixes things at my house that I didn't even realize needed fixing, he invites me out with his family and to his family functions, he holds my hand in public, he gives me gifts for no reason, he does what he says he will do, he joins me to my family events, he listens when I talk, etc. The main thing that shows me his love is when I bring up an issue that bothers me or tell him I'd like more of a certain action, he makes an obvious effort to make me happy. The effort is golden!!

Thats sweet. how does he show his love to you through his actions? (not talking about sex here) lol
He makes it clear that our relationship is not all about sex. He cooks me dinner, he opens doors, he offers a hand when I'm getting up from sitting, he contacts me every day, he fixes things at my house that I didn't even realize needed fixing, he invites me out with his family and to his family functions, he holds my hand in public, he gives me gifts for no reason, he does what he says he will do, he joins me to my family events, he listens when I talk, etc. The main thing that shows me his love is when I bring up an issue that bothers me or tell him I'd like more of a certain action, he makes an obvious effort to make me happy. The effort is golden!!

So Jealous lol. That's exactly the kind of relationship I've always wanted. Not just saying 'I love you' but showing it in ways only you would feel and see it action. I'm really happy you have that. Don't want sound pushy but tell me more about your relationship.. I like knowing the good side to a relationship. Continuously being surrounded by the negative side just drops my faith in love and relationships. (mushy I know lol)
CEU, that's a beautiful sentiment!!
ceu, wise words.. #Respect x

When it happens with us, I'll say something...no response....2 hrs/6 hrs/12 hrs later I get a text just like the conversation never stopped, picked up from where we left off. Or I'll get a text saying sorry, fell asleep or sorry phone rang and I forgot we were texting. It's become an ongoing joke between us and now when it happens I just laugh. Well, I'll be honest, sometimes it's irritating, but usually not a big deal. I'll either ignore it and go about my business or send another text back like 'Don't know where you went, but sleep well babe, talk to ya tomorrow'.
I'm just curious about reasons for it:
Is it:
Boredom with the conversation?
Falling asleep?
Interruptions?
Set your phone down and get distracted?
Phone rings and you forget you were texting?
Get busy and don't have time?
Someone comes over?
I've seen (and done) all of the above, just wonder what your viewpoints are. Thought it might be an interesting and fun conversation.
