I recently have been in contact with someone I knew from childhood. I’ve been so interested in how his life has been but anytime we are on a call or text he keeps it very short. Basically he doesn’t really give me enough time to really talk. His response is always “I’m going to plan a day for us to get up”. Not like “I don’t wanna talk” type of way. But he’s in the middle of flipping a house so he is kind of busy. Which I understand. Also if I text him, he’ll respond maybe twice and then stops. But he constantly will say, text or call me whenever. But when I do, it’s short. I’m getting nothing from him. Meaning- I don’t know if he’s in a relationship, etc.
I feel like if I don’t reach out, I won’t hear from him. And if I do reach out- he’s always keeping in short and saying “I’m going to plan a date.”
I want to be bold, in a cool playful way. But I do want to tell him that I genuinely am curious how his life is but I don’t want to feel like I’m desperate for his attention. Like, I’m really curious as a friend how he’s been.
Any ideas on how to text him without seeming desperate for his attention?
