Is he losing interest or just busy? How do I decode his texts and mixed signals?

So, I am not the best date, but I want to try to be.

I met this new guy around December and instantly we hit it off. We would text almost every day, he would plan dates for us (even got upset that i had to pay for one date because his card wasn't working for some reason AND was really sad our Christmas Eve Date was really short).

Anyway, we used to talk every day for around 2 months and then we just kinda stopped talking for a bit, which was weird. I asked him about it and he told me a family member had recently passed so I was like, "okay, ill step back for a bit and do like weekly check ins."

He was very grateful for that and we started hanging out a bit more. Conversations in person are really well, not too romancy or anything just friends being friends.

Which is fine. If i didn't want to kiss his face every time I saw him.

The reason for this long winded question is this. How can you decode a guys text messages? They are all very sweet, he sends paragraphs, apologizes, and holds a conversation well. But recently, a week passed (which has never happened) and he just says he's chilling with his dog. Which is again totally fine. im just a pattern recomgizer and from my last "relationship" (that I told him about in a very not healthy, trauma dump, panic attack way over text. Not proud of that one bit.), it was all through text pretty much.

So, I dont really know what to do with that. And I could totally just be insecure as hell right now and not know what to do with a walking green flag, but I also really like him and I am very scared to ruin that. I plan to ask him what this is or something along those lines in June.

Any advice is appreciated and thank you for reading if you did.
