texting

the libra guy im dating has been pretty predictible when it comes to communication. He has texted me at least once a day for the last month and usually around the same time too. He almost always asks me a question like "hows ur day going" etc. and when i text him back, "going good, how are you?" He almost always answers and keeps the convo going. Until lately. Lately he has texted me questions like, "hi sweetheart, how was ur wk end" and when i reply and ask him how his was he will not reply! This bugs me bc i feel like if you dont really care for an answer why even text at all? This has happened 5 times in a row! He texts me things like: "i want you" and when i reply back to it: nothing back!....im confused. I'm thinking he needs space, so i havent said anyting. But im beginning to think i will start ignoring his texts because why even reply? I know i may come off as silly in this....but its our form of communication and basically i dont understand why its changed.

What time is it when he does this...sounds like a drunken text just before he falls off to sleep and has forgotten he's done it! lol

LMAO! this could be true...

some of them were at like 5 pm though.....

I have been responding back and trying to keep the convo going....
i don't get it.
It's like hes not getting my texts. why are you going to text a girl: i want you. etc. if your not that into her...
I'm thinking i should pick up the phone and call him and see how hes doing, but maybe he needs space. Plus im pretty prideful, i feel like he can text me/call when hes ready. I've tried to communicate with him to his texts and hes ignoring me. blahhh! Maybe he thinks im not that into him? He hasnt contacted me for 2 days now....maybe hes testing me to see if i care and if i like him? or maybe hes testing me to see if i freak out and im clingy? i dont know what i should do.

I agree, I hate F U C K N texting. Just call and talk to him. Are you Aries? Aries women always text me like crazy, PICK UP DA PHONE!!!

Why dont you try ignoring him until he decides that you are worth more than a couple of texts that dont ever get a replyed to! HOW RUDE!!! Dont let him treat you this way!

maybe his feelings have changed? he might want to keep the door open to possibilities but is unsure if he still wants you completely. they have a habit of being unable to decide

Well one, texting in relationships is cute when it's kept to a minimum. But it sounds like the main source of communication between you two is either in person or over text messaging & that in itself is a dangerous thing when you're trying to get someone to get to know you enough to commit to you. Why don't you just call him when he doesn't reply or have this conversation with him (the way you're having with us) when he doesn't respond?

You know his schedule & you know his habits by now. And I'm pretty sure he's not THAT busy or his phone isn't THAT dead taht he can't respond. These are signs of cheating and/or someone who isn't taking seriously the relationship/friendship. It sounds like he's texting enough sweet words to you just to make sure that you're still alive & just to make sure that he's still got you right where he wants you. And once he sees that you reply, he won't text back at all, b/c after all, he wasn't texting to talk. He was texting you to "spot" you (make sure you aren't acting funny or suspicious). This is a COMMON Thing that alot of men do when they've started cheating. They text their woman every once in a while & will ask a random question just to see how their woman responds. If their girlfriend responds in the same friendly tone & manner that she always does, then they know that their cover is not blown & see no need in texting back.

Try this. The next couple of times he textes you, don't respond. If he calls you or all of the sudden says "What happend" or "Are you there?" then don't respond. Let him come to you. And it's kind of a lose-lose situation for him with this though b/c if he asks you why you're not responding then that leaves him no explanation for why he never responds back either. And if he DOESN'T respond then that's just plain weird that he'd be by his phone for 1 second & then be soooo busy that he didn't see your return text until the next time he textes you
