My bf and I have been dating for two weeks. Prior to this we dated for 6 months. Separated for another 6 months then we got back together. One of the problems we had when we were dating before was the lack of communication on his part. There were times that he totally forgot to text me back. Anyway, I left he pursued me again. I said it was over but he was so persistent. He said he loves me. It took me six months to decide that I should give it another shot. He promised he would change, so were trying again.
So the past two weeks, we have been communicating everyday. He sent a good morning text yesterday. I sent a good night text last night. No response from him. No text from him this morning either. Usually, when I text him at night and he's asleep he texts me in the morning saying sorry baby I was sleep.
Do you guys think its something I should bring up to him or should I just ignore it? I want to bring it up because I don't want it to become a habit. Any suggestions about what is the best way to tell him this? I don't want to sound too needy or demanding but at the same time I want him to know that it's unacceptable and if he keeps doing it, our relationship is not gonna work out and I'm not gonna stick around.
Thanks so much for all the help.

Honestly, my husband would always call me every night before he went to sleep. I need someone like that. This guy doesn't sound like that. If you can't handle him the way he is - then you just might not be right for each other. And personally, I'd much rather TALK to the person that I'm dating rather than just texting.
Sorry I maybe overreacting or worrying too much but I had a really bad experience about the way this guy was communicating in the past. I feel that when he does something like that that it's the start of the old pattern and that it may lead to how he was before.

It's pretty rare that someone can change. Even if he does communicate with you more often, he may just be doing it to appease you and the pattern is likely to repeat. Maybe it's time to find someone who's more into you.

How old are both of you? I ask because I'm curious to know if you're both young and naive or if you're in your late 20's/early 30's and that he's just immature.
Go with your gut. He has a pattern and you see it resurfacing.

Early 30s both professional. We both have demanding jobs and busy schedule.

I never buy into that "busy schedule". I have a very demanding job, too. My position means I'm on call 24/7, even if I'm on a family vacation in Disney.
I always find time to shoot a text or email to let someone know I'm thinking of them and that I haven't forgotten or ignored them. Sounds like you're now defending him.
