    Hi there, so I have a worry based on my habits in the past. It seems like whenever I make a new friend, I really enjoy talking to the person at first, but then get "bored" of the person. I don't know if the conversation dies down or there is less to talk about, but I just end up being less excited by conversation. I'm saying this more in the sense of messaging or texting. I will talk to the person and have some great conversations. But then after talking a few times, I don't respond all the time and I never seem to start the conversation.

    Firstly, I'm a terrible person for doing that and I know it (try not to judge). I previously was a great texter and kept the conversations going; nowadays, the person is lucky if I respond after 5 messages.
    I really worry about this when getting in a relationship. This seems to happen to me only with texting, so I guess as long as I see the person often, I don't have a problem. Hypothetically though, if we weren't living together, I would likely have to call / text the person often.

    Has anyone ever experienced this before? I know I could force myself to respond, but that's not my worry - I'm just worried about how bored I get of conversations / talking to people (and I wonder if this means I'll get bored of future boyfriends). Any advice is appreciated.
