Why won’t he text first? He will always reply quickly, and he complains to people if I don’t text him, but he won’t start a conversation. Why?

Strong independent women should not have a problem with texting first. :)

[Asker]

I don’t, but I ALWAYS text first. If he did like me, wouldn’t he make the effort to text first instead of complaining to other people I quit texting him?

[Berethor]

Him complaining also shows that he care, and you can talk to him about that.

[Asker]

Even though it’s been weeks since I texted him? We’re not dating or anything, and I get such mixed signals. If he doesn’t feel the same way I do, I’d rather cut my loses.

[Berethor]

Yea even it been weeks, you are not dating so you don't need to text often.

[spartan55]

Have you told him you want him to text first?

[Asker]

We aren’t dating. I’m looking at this as he doesn’t like me.

[spartan55]

Are you kidding me? That's ridiculous. Why don't you TALK to him and find out for real if he is interested instead of gauging his interest by text.

[Guy13]

We don’t like texting.

[Asker]

He texts my dad almost daily…

[Guy13]

Guys text differently. You women emotional bombardment 💣 💣💣💣

[Asker]

That’s quite the generalization there. And in my case, isn’t true.

[Guy13]

Then out example. Not mind readers. ANONs…
