Should I text him?

So, this guy and I started off pretty well. First 2 weeks he was nice. He would text me "good morning" every day. At the beginning, I was just texting him for the sake of texting. I had to warm up to him. It became consistent, and I started to feel him out. Yesterday, when we were talking about football, his responses became a little dry. So, the night before, I left him on read because he only responded with a crying face emoji, and I was hoping for a good morning text and a “how was your day” text. But he didn't send one. Later, when I brought up the conversation about how my favorite team lost in the playoffs, he commented with these emojis: "😱😭😭". I'm not sure if he's acting like this because Valentine's Day is tomorrow, but I think I should just leave him alone.

Awwhhh girl that sucks, I hate when guys start flaking after you thought things were going good. But from the sounds of it, he’s def not putting in the same effort anymore.

I wouldn’t text him if I were you. Like he clearly couldn’t even send a proper good morning text? Lame. And now his replies are all dry emoji reactions? Boy bye 👋

Maybe he’s stressed for V-Day or losing interest, who knows. But you don’t wanna keep chasing someone who’s not matching your energy, ya feel me? Just sends the wrong message that you’ll tolerate casual shit.

My advice would be leave the ball in his court. If he hits you up again & actually pulls his weight in the convo, then maybe roll with it. But for now I say let him sit and think about how much better your convos used to be!

Don’t double text looking desperate. Keep it pushin and focus on yourself for a while. If he steps up his game, he’ll show you. Otherwise, screw that dry texter - you deserve better, bae!

Yeah there's actually no problem in texting him first on occasions but at this point when you notice a change in his patterns, it's better to wait and see if he texts you.
If he doesn't for like a day or two then you should. Communication is the key anyway than being silent and expecting other person to understand you beyond silence.

I mean. A conversation has to end somewhere. I don’t recommending ignoring someone. But yes I would reach out. Maybe he was busy today or something.


There is no telling what it is. You can ask him. But just remember. You don’t have to talk 24/7. Eveentually you will run out of things to talk about. If you give talking to someone a reasonable break. Not ignoring them. But you’ll think of things to talk about
