Guy takes forever to text back?

[Anonymous]

He texts me, I don't text him first, but he takes the whole day to respond sometimes...why even text me?

Lol. I'm going through the same thing, too. I've been told that guys take a long time to answer because they want to seem like they have better things to do than text, being a guy and all. Some guys can't wait to text you back, but they want to keep it cool and others take the longest time to decide what they want to write back so they don't look stupid to you.

Also, some guys aren't that much into texting and don't have their phone with them at all times. But it's a good thing that he texts you if he doesn't like texting, because that would mean that he's making the effort for you. :)

OMG, I cannot stand when guys do this. I like this guy and he does the same thing, it usually takes 3-4 hours to respond. I don't get it at all. If you don't wanna seem like your being to forward by texting back right away just wait 30min otherwise don't waste your time texting me in the first place.

Maybe he wants you to think and miss him while you wait for your texts.. look like it's working. wink ;)

haha it is totally working, it annoys me but part of me loves the suspense it brings

Well either he's waiting to text you back to seem like he isn't thinking about you all the time or he actually has something he is doing that he can't text you. I know people who take forever to text me back and obviously they aren't doing it because they are interested in me. There is a good chance though that he is just doing it to make you think about him or he's playing "hard to get". Only way to find out is to continue to talk to him to see if he is interested.

or you also take a while to text back and he's paying you in the same coin
