he's concentrated on something else. probably talking to someone else, watching tv, playing a game, reading, listening to music, falling asleep. etc.. i know i don't get it either. especially if you "love" or "like" someone it just can't happen. i enjoy texting someone i am interested in and enjoy talking too. i literally text back too fast in my opinion and sometimes i feel like i'm annoying them but at least i show that i'm interested. i know how it'd make you feel as if you aren't important enough. i don't think there's such thing as forgetting to text your partner. your partner usually is the one that's always on your mind. i feel the same though and it is annoying. i have a crush that reads my message and takes hours to reply to a text then he comes back apologizing saying that he got distracted or that he went out somewhere or was doing something else. maybe adhd or something but still not hard to send a text. it only takes a second.
i think it depends on individual. some people really forget to text back. some, will only reply when they are not busy even though they have read your mesg. personally, i dont mind though 😂 cos my fiance is not the texting type of person. he'll leave me on blue tick in whatsapp 😂 but i honestly dont mind. if u think that person took too long to reply why not just call?
I’ve never known that. Only give him as much as he gives you but don’t let him see that it bothers you, just show him you’re losing interest and doing other fun things instead.
My husband would not text me back and when he came home I would yell at him since I needed something at the store
More the other way around; I text her a lot and she doesn't text back nearly as much. But I'm a lot more talkative than she is, I'm prone to sending little cute things, or sayings, or just whatever comes to mind. She's more practical and down to earth. Ultimately, it works for us so I guess that's what matters, but still...
Because men aren't particular good at split focus. I know I like to do one thing at a time until. im done with them. So sometimes I don't notice the text and then realize it's been awhile since I texted back or I will check, he busy, and forget that I didn't text back. But that is usually at max a few hours.

Texting just isn't that important. It's not really communicating to the real person, just the self-edited version they want you to experience. You should appreciate the time you actually spend together
Boys doesn't forget to text coz mostly they r despirate... may be he is busy with his other gfs or may be he is showing disinterest or he doesn't want you anymore... anything could happen.. may be he is in stress!!! Anything can happen!!! U should clear the things on face so that u can move on.. dont create missunderstandings... gudluck👍👍
I tend to reply in my head before actually sending the text to most people-- but if I am genuinely interested in a guy, I will text him as soon as I can because I am interested in him and want to pursue the relationship. Though, I do not have my phone glued to me 24/7.
No one is ever too busy. Especially if it is someone you like. It takes a sec to text a good morning. Im thinking about you today or have a good night. How i see it.
Don't think it really means anything just that he's busy I always look at texts and think yeah that's fine I'll text back in a bit then don't unless there's something wrong then I text straight back
I used to do it. I'd look at it right away then put it back in my pocket so it didn't look like I want busy. The respond like a hour later when I remember
Dump him. In no case should a boyfriend forget his girlfriend. Unless his mother is dying in the hospital of coarse (extreme example, but you get the idea) who the hell forgets to text his gf? Im not skeptical person, but that asshole is either kissing other girls or mastrubating 24/7. Jep. That's a possibility.
This can't be directed at just guys as I've had my fair share of girlfriends and theyve all had times when they forgot to text back its just something that happens all people are capable of being absent minded and if the person is excessively absent in the mental area than you can either be understanding or leave if its so bad
I had a girlfriend that forgot to text me for one week. The last time we messaged I was making plans and she left me on read.
I forget to text back to my boyfriend. He sends a text, i open it but Im really busy. So I just think that I will reply later. And I forget about it until he sends another message lol.
Talk to him about it... he just has to create time to do so. Doesn't make sense he doesn't text back cus its a bad sign
It depends. A few hours between texts is 100% common eapecially if im busy that day, i just dont have the time or headapace to do it all. If it takes him more than a day though, he is flat out ignoring you and you should be suspicious
I don't forget to reply. But I choose sometimes not to answer.
i used to forget to text back to my partners but now i have a girl whom i text all day long i couldnt even imagine a situation where i forget to write her back. /im bi/
Because some people don't live with their phone glued to their face. Not a big deal, life goes on.
I can't. If I givr seen , my boyfriend would call the police , my parents and everyone to make sure im fine.
Well.. how long do you both are in a relationship? I mean it pretty sounds like he give zero fucks about you, to be honest. Im sorry
I do but its because I get wrapped up in whats happening in the moment and my focus goes from my life and all responsiblities to the single task at hand 😰
just open up and tell him... talking to each other is the best
I always do this, but I also grew up without a phone...
