I have a guy I have been casually seeing for about 8 or 9 months now. He'll go through spurts where he won't respond to my messages for a day (sometimes two). (I don't bombard him with messages when he does this or ask him why he isn't responding. I usually just leave it be). But when he DOES resume texting me and I don't respond right away (usually a few hours, or in one instance a full day) or give him short one to two word responses, he suddenly blows up my phone with texts. Why?
