+1 yThere's basically 3 things it can mean:
1: he's beginning to feel the connection you guys have is real and solid enough that he doesn't feel the need to talk to you every 4 seconds to know he's on your mind and you're not out there thinking about cheating or something. I'm gonna put him being busy in this category too.
2: you pissed him off and he's trying to figure out how/if to approach you about it. Men don't act out of emotion. When we feel like we're about to, we step back and contemplate until we feel like we have self control again. Women have a way of doing this to us a lot. (if a guy doesn't do this by the way, run for the hills)
2a: he knows he pissed you off and he's afraid
3: your worst fears, time to find a new boyfriend or go gay30 Reply

+1 yIn my case, it means I like her as odd as that sounds. I spent a whole lot of time as a software developer working remotely although we constantly met face-to-face on business trips, and I've seen my share of my colleagues arguing online over text in ways they never did in person.
So I refrain from texting much with people I really like. Instead, I arrange to see them in person as often as possible and keep the texting mostly to make those arrangements. Especially early in the dating and relationship process, I wanted us to form our impressions of each other face-to-face and not through texting.11 Reply- +1 y
That said, I was down to see each other 4+ times a week. I often dated that way and would go on dates with women right after we both finished from work for dinner still in our work clothes. So I was very interested in talking to these women, but face-to-face. I didn't want to risk what my colleagues frequently did online which was to get into misunderstandings and arguments that only would over text and not in person.
+1 yI can only speak for myself, when you hear “I’m busy” more than once, he’s not interested. Nobody’s that busy… Also, usually it can mean you said something offensive, he’s losing interest, maybe he wants you to initiate the conversations, the conversations aren’t going anywhere, he may be just looking for something casual, he’s being entertained by someone else, he’s in a relationship but lied, he could be a person who doesn’t like texting (but he should at least be calling you or have communicated that), it could be a lot of things… Sometimes they don’t have the courage to say they’re not interested, so they’ll just keep treating you like whatever… But the most important thing is listen to yourself, if you have doubt, something isn’t right.

+1 yMen typically don't 'chat'... we want you to know we're thinking of you!
You mean the world to us BUT... we generally don't dawdle.
Truthfully, we mostly have nothing new to say----
You want to be WITH us... then BE with us, ... not on the damned cell phone!10 ReplyIf it's something that's just starting I'm hesitant to text too much. Not due to a lack of interest, more self conscious about being too clingy and not wanting to scare her away.
If it's something a bit further down the line then maybe they're trying to distance themselves a bit, which I personally am not a fan of. I like people to be straight up.10 Reply
+1 ythere's nothing to say. Youd want someone to just keep talking disingenuously just for the sake of giving you attention? Why should they live a lie if there's nothing interesting to say?
10 ReplyCould be anything. Busier than usual. Dead battery. Lost interest in you. Talk. Assume the best. If your relationship is on a bumpy patch, a good attitude will help you through.

What is it gonna take for women to just ask us directly instead of going online and asking strangers?11 Reply- +1 y
Because some men won’t give give a straight answer. Maybe they think they may hurt a woman’s feelings 🤷♀️
+1 yDepends on your relationship with the man. If you’re exclusively dating it can be he just wants some space. If you’re more in a situation ship then he’s talking to someone else. I could be more precise if I knew your specifics lol
