He may be having a difficult time processing the fact that you are moving away! In his mind he needs to mentally prepare for life without you in it daily. Things are changing for you both. If you both pursue a LDR things will definitely be different. Your social life, your sexual activity, everything you both did together is about to change and people don't handle change all that well. Just talk to him, not by text. He needs to know in his mind things are going to be alright. His heart is breaking... put the situation on the other foot and it was you who had to deal with losing him for a little while... how would you respond?
You two seem to be building a genuine friendship. If that is the case, then why not just ask him about it? let him know in a gentle and nonassuming way that you've noticed that he seems "short on words" these days. Ask him if there's anything bothering him, not bothering him about you, but just in general. You may learn that he's stressed , maybe having some family or personal issues or otherwise upset and if he is your friend and you genuinely care about each other then it shouldn't be an issue for you to simply raise the question. xoxo
his texts have shortened
because...
he is slowly
loosing
interest.
bring his interest back?
ignore him.
he will start to wonder what happened
and slowly
gain
interest.
good luck ignoreing him is not easy.
REMEMBER:
if he talks to you be polite, but dont start the conversation. not until his interest is back.
My boyfriend gives me short texts when he is playing World of Warcraft... Could be playing a video game and trust me texting and playing video games is hard :p I can't do it unless I find a moment where there isn't much happening.
There can be many reasons-
1. He might be bored of texting (cause I find it actually tiresome)
2. He's trying to ditch you
3. Trying to increase his worth ( that actually worked cause you asked this question relating to him)
4. Or trying to starve you out so that he may get in bed with you easily.
etc...
My advice- You dump him and move on
\m/
How often do you text?
I flatout ignored this one woman (whom i really liked), because she texted way too much.
I'm not into being on a phone a lot, texting when you can call or just spend time with is annoying.
and a great way for miscommunication.
I don't know, since you didn't indicate something else, that's my guess!

You're moving away. Maybe that has some sort of thing to do with it. For example, I recently moved across the country. There was one guy that we both had quite a huge thing for each other. Well he found out I was moving and when I saw him at work I was trying to tell him that I was leaving and I'll see him later. He wouldn't let me though. He seemed rather upset/mad about it. And he ignored me. That could be what is going on with him. Just an idea.
It's probably nothing. As girls we get annoyed and think more of this but if you're on that "more than a friend' category then he probably won't want to text "his girl" all the time. As long as he's not like that in person then I'm sure it's fine
We girls tend to read into things and over analyze too much which makes us look like
Taylor Swift in Blank Space
maybe he is getting frustrated as he wants more than a platonic relationship and he is checking your response to him withdrawing and being curt... Turn the poor bloke down... properly. tell him "You're cool but I would ever want to date you"... end his suffering... You owe it to the poor sod as a friend
As long as he is not acting differently towards you or seeing you less, i wouldn't be too concerned. Sometimes as a relationship progresses, people tend to text less anyway.
Dont read too much into it, or over think things at this stage.
My ex started doing that before our relationship ended and I think it was because he had a lot on his mind and when he went to break up with me it would be almost a clean break from me texting him everyday
He doesn't want to commit if you are going away for a period of time. Which means he wants to keep his options open for the short term. Which means he most likely is looking for sexual benefits and instant gratification.
I'm a guy and personally my friends do the same I mean but you gotta watch out I mean he can either be bored or tired and doesn't feel like texting but just watch the text for a few days and how he acts around you and if u notice anything different than be straight up and ask him
Lost interest or is busy/something on his mind. If you're really gonna make such a big deal then just ask him
It means he is either: Busy, not interested in talking or doesn't feel it needs elaborate messaging to convey his point
why someone must text a lot since he can say what is needed briefly?
were his text blunt in a cold way or a sexy way. Write me private i have an idea for you.
He is probably trying to kill the conversation like in that moment he's busy so he doesn't want to text I'm sure he wants to talk he's just busy :)
I agree with@Error_204 he is probably bored or uninterested
Yes, you have. Just don't reply when he sends you texts like those.
I only experienced this when my relationships were on the wind down.
Maybe because he doesn't like texting to many words. Most guys don't like flooding girls with text,.. it's just not cool.
just ignore him. He no longer cares about you. Why would I give my time of day to something that doesn't love me back.
He not sure what to say and trying to talk to u as much he can. He very interested into u and seeing if u can be more than friends
When you text so much.. or talk so much.. you run out of things to talk about. Short responses come from just generally wanting to carry on the convorsation. Its an annoying cycle.. but being so blunt about things.. I dont view as a problem.
Most likely it means he wants to get in your pants.
