I used to talk to this guy every single day for 5-6 hours. He always texts me first and we will talk about everything.

We have some small issues in between and at one point, I cut him out of my life for a week.

He texted me first and we started talking again. However he's acting really weird. For example, he will text me every single day, but when I reply back instantly, he will reply 15-30 minutes later. Why would you even text me then, right?

I think that he might be talking to other people (he talks to other girls), which I really don't care about. It's just rude to text someone and reply slow. I mean, if someone wants to talk to you, they will find time right?

Background: We go to the same college and he's a recently graduated college student, and is working as a photographer for around 20/hrs a week. He can't be that busy, can he? He's not looking for any job until September since he wanted a small break before finding a job.

I'm going to start a thread called "Girls and impatience".

Just because you're already staring at your phone on facebook, ready to reply to everything instantly, doesn't mean he is.

Lol.

I've had women go apesh*t if I didn't respond quicker than the speed of light.

He is texting you right? Like he must like you. Texting has ruined relationships. It's like you have to be on call 24/7. Sometimes you have **** to do, places to be. Maybe he is in the car???? Sheeesh.

By the way, I am A GIRL and I get the same crap from guys when I don't answer right away. I had to turn the read receipt off because I get it quoted back to me that I read the text and didn't respond until later.

People need to relax.

Maybe he has moved on but as it was you that cut him out you can't really blame him surely

I don't need and expect him to reply instantly, but knowing that someone is on their phone and it takes 1 sec to reply is a different story.

So what's the problem?


You DON'T know he is on his phone. Not everybody latches on to these things like their lives depend on it.

Ummm you are contradicting yourself. You first say I don't need him to reply instantly but then say it only takes 1 second to reply. You are really needy. Why not just go with the flow and enjoy it. Don't sit around waiting for the text, do something. 20 years ago one phone call from your guy was a cool thing.

But it seems like you do.... 15-30 minutes is not very long, at all

He used to reply really fast and now it feels like he does not want to talk to me as much.
