text messaging
| Fri, 10-05-2007 - 7:12am |
I've been dating a new guy for the past few weeks. He was really attentive-- calling at least every other day, making plans, and when we would go out, we'd spend hours together. it felt great, but then after he came back from a business trip last friday he stopped calling and has only sent me a few lame text messages. I feel like he might have lost interest and is hiding behind text messaging. Is this probably what's going on? The sudden shift in communicating is a little unsettling. I'm somewhat turned off by men who do this-- I think a guy even sort of has to earn the right to text message a girl you're starting to date, that it's not a good way to put your best foot forward and get a relationship off the ground. I think it's a cheap way to communicate with someone you're supposedly interested in and call me old-fashioned, but it's really turning me off.

Maybe he's just had a real busy tough week. Has he made plans to get together again with the texting? I know phone calls are better and when you see him you can perhaps casually mention that you appreciate getting texts but you really like the sound of his voice too and its nice to touch base verbally also.
In other words, gently let him know how you feel and see where it goes or doesn't from there
