Why does text me first but then doesn't reply?

This pisces disappeared 7 weeks ago Is he playing games with me, to see if Im still interested?
I haven't heard from him in 7 weeks!
so he texts "heya, how ya doin?" when I reply he reads it and doesn't reply.
Is he playing mind games, it doesnt make sense to start a conversation and ignore. I didnt take long to reply 10 minutes.
Was it to see if Im still interested and willing to text?

He's doing it for the attention.

Don't respond.

It's a game men play, not a pisces thing. Basically he wants to make sure he keeps you in his net by doing the least amount of work. Whenever contact has dropped too long he reaches out to make sure he still has you on the back burner for his dry spell. You should block his number immediately, and feel no remorse about it. He's not interested in having a serious relationship, you're just one of many women he is juggling.

But I ended things with him, we wanted different things, I thought it would be rude not to reply. I kinda moved on and put it at the back of my mind. I'm not quite sure why he would play this game with me, cause Im serious and I wouldnt sleep with him (he knows this). Is there any other reason besides sex?

Pisces people will indeed fuck with others who are emotionally weak.

And he would be right about that, wouldn't he?

Here you are stating you are finished with him ...... and yet, your actions are showing that you want to give him your energy. Even when people come in here and tell you to dump any relativity to him, you come back to ask: What other reasons could there be? And that means that you want his attention, you want to continue with thoughts that revolve around him.


He knows this, he knows you're emotionally desperate .... what other reason could there be for you to want to exert your energy into delving into a person you already realize isn't into you?

A Pisces will fuck with you for being this weak. A Pisces knows how they make you feel. He realizes that you are probably giving him this much credit, in where you are wanting to discuss him .... and he isn't doing this because he wants attention from you, he does it so that you will exploit your damn self, and make yourself look pathetic.


and viola ... this thread exists, doesn't it?

Never saw it like this. Would you just "toy" with someone, is it normal? I mean if he had a girlfriend/ something in his life, why would he even want to waste time like this. Do people get joy out of this

If you ended it and he disappeared then his feelings were hurt. He stayed away as long he could and probably thought he'd give it one more shot with a text..putting his feelers out

He didnt reply after I replied so hes probably toying with me

Why do male badgers excrete on bushes to mark their territory? Because that is the way they do it.

If you are a distant part of his social territory, texting twice would be as wasteful as peeing twice on the same bush!

Still there for what But I ended things with him, we wanted different things, I thought it would be rude not to reply. I'm not quite sure why he would play this game with me, cause Im serious and I wouldnt sleep with him (he knows this). I mean I made it clear Im not into no strings attached sex, what could he want from me?

Nothing. Just enquiring that you are still part of his social circle. Someone to catch up with, when he feels lonely.

If he really wants something, he will be back, but there is no indication for it. I wouldn't spend any more thoughts on him.

So in other words they do it to make sure you are still there?

Yes. If you don't reply, they will write you off, so simple is that.

And yet, here you are doing the same thing you're griping about.

the same question to you - still with these thoughts of him for what purpose? what do you want from him?

If you were really finished with him, then your actions would represent that. Instead, your actions represent that you want to give him more and more credit, via discussions about him and what he could possibly feel.

Do yourself a favor, and step away.
