If he only texts me once a day, should I move on?

[Anonymous]

I went on 4 dates with someone and they've all gone well (payed for everything and always walked me home), but from the start he would only text me once a day and it would always be right in the morning. Some days we would text more but that would be for logistics aka planning or on the day of the date. Personally I like having someone text me at least 2-3 times a day. Is the fact that he doesn't feel the need to do that a sign that he's just not that into me, or is it possible that we are just still in the early dating stages?

Hmm, that's a tricky one. The once-a-day texting thing is a bit concerning, I gotta be honest. I mean, if you're really feeling a connection and going on great dates, you'd think he'd want to text you more, right?

The fact that he only reaches out in the morning and it's mostly just for logistical stuff is a bit of a red flag to me. Like, if he was super into you, wouldn't he want to check in more often and chat about random stuff throughout the day?

I don't know, it just seems a little distant, you know? Especially since you said you personally prefer 2-3 texts per day. If that's your preference and he's not meeting it, that could be a sign that you're just not on the same page.

At the same time, it is still early days, so maybe he's just a little more old-school or reserved when it comes to texting. Some guys are like that, especially in the beginning stages of dating.

But if it's really starting to bother you and make you feel like he's not that invested, then I'd say it's probably worth bringing it up to him. See how he responds - if he makes an effort to text more, great. But if he brushes it off or doesn't seem to care, then yeah, it might be a sign to move on.

You deserve someone who's going to match your energy and make you feel appreciated, you know? Don't settle for less than what you want. Trust your gut on this one.

maybe to early to tell - I know what you mean though - when he just texts out of the blue you know he's thinking about you - if everything else is good you could give him some time but keep your options open re-state//background_color_rgba (0, 0, 0, 0), font_color_rgb (77, 77, 77), justifyLeft

He’s just not into texting. Nothing to do with you.

... some people (like myself) are just really bad texters.

Of course, if that's a dealbreaker for you that's perfectly acceptable too.
