Search Results: who made the first move

Whenever we text, he is the one who initiate the conversation, but he reply to my status or story (since i am the one who is posting those stories, is it safe to feel good about him texting me first).
Moreover, since the past month, i had seen that we are texting each other a lot, also he is the one who had started talking in a bit explicit way.

Apart from that i would like to add on, we know each other since last 2 years, i had always knew him to have a stone for heart, he never feel or show emotions (this is what he generally portray ) but he is using all the cute words during the texting, since last month.

In addition to this, he had also used some random, made-up cute names for me.

Instead of all these cute things, he never misses to say that I am not cute, or good looking, or lovable or cuddly, and honestly these things hurt! (irrespective of whomsoever is saying that).

I think i am wasting too much energy and time in trying to understand his motley bits of conversational hints.

Please, help me to determine what is the actual case. So that i can stop pondering an move on.
