    Me and this guy have been talking but he is strange in the way he texts. it is kinda annoying. So regardless of who starts the texting, I don't reply right away to texts all the time. Sometimes I do, but sometimes I will forget to answer because I am doing something, whether it is about to work out, or at my families, or something, so sometimes a few hours go by and then I will text. at which point, he'll text me a day later, or days later, or none at all if I am delayed in anyway. He is more interested in me I feel like because he is overly enthusiastic when he does text, and he replies right away every time until I don't reply right away. Isn't that strange?

    Is that a sign of someone with issues or no?

    I feel like he is one of those people that because they don't get attention right away they reject said person for a little bit because they feel rejected.

    Honestly that kinda sounds like me!

    Usually for me I do it because I feel like if you can wait such amount of time to text me back I can do the same to you...Idk it just makes me feel like if you have more important things to do then so do I Im sure that probably doesn't make the best sense but that's the best way I can explain it

    Yeah... I've noticed that a few of my friends have done that. I don't think it is a sign of *issues*. Maybe a small insecurity??

    But not texting back for *days* is ridiculous, especially if you only took a couple of hours to respond. I don't like the digital/text era for this reason. We have no breathing space when it is needed.

    Maybe you guys just happen to catch each other at bad times? Sometimes I'll get a text from someone hours later and by then I'm busy.

    I don't think you should judge someone based solely on how they respond to texts, it's hard to get a good idea of their personality.

    See that sounds insecure. and sort of like you would be someone who views it as sort of a game. It's not about being more or less important, it's just about being caught up in something in the moment, like reality. It's not that I am always texting back late, just sometimes

    Okay so you agree with me! It is a little strange regarding texting back days later. He didn't text me back at all yet since yesterday after I was with family for 4th, and took awhile ckto respond to him initially, like 3-4 hours. we aren't dating or anything, it's not like the conversation is urgent for reply. But he hasn't texted me back yet and I guarantee I will get a text tomorrow or the next day where he is resuming the conversation. That just gives me a strange vibe
