Is not texting back a sign of disinterest?

Anonymous

I’m 24 and need to start being “real” with myself. I’ve been talking to this guy and everyone who knows him says that he’s a bad texter (including himself). We hooked up a while back and had plans on hanging out again, but he never responded. So I asked him again (through text) and he apologized for not responding and told me that he was going through something and when “it” (im not sure what “it” is, he didn’t say) is over, he’ll talk to me. We see each other in person and he always says hi and talks to me. So, I’m not sure if I want a relationship right now, but I would like a “fling” thing. So I asked him 3 days ago if he wanted to hook up again, and he hasn’t responded.

My guy friends are telling me not to worry, but my girl friends are all telling me to move on. So im not sure what to do
