Update. I am an idiot. He was so nervous when he got to my house and I really put him on the spot and overwhelmed him with my need to talk about things so soon. But he was very kind to me. It's obvious looking back my anxiety needed te talk. We did find out we both want marriage and kids but he's not in a hurry (reasonable) and doesn't want to force anything.

 

I need to learn to relax :(

I've been with my boyfriend for three months now. In our courting stages, he'd text many times throughout the day and they'd be rather long texts. He is also the one who acted way more into me than I was into him (I WAS actually into him I just play it cool more. ha)

 

Yesterday I went out of town with friends to a concert. He couldn't come because his friend was in town and they were all getting together. Well, despite us both being around friends all day only one of us bothered to text the other: me. Before he would always make a point to text me back or at the very least text goodnight, but he did neither. I just sent two texts and am not one of those people who will continue to text if they don't get a response. This morning he finally texted me back and apologized for not doing so yesterday.

 

I'm still annoyed. The last two times we hung out we were alone and he was incredibly loving and affectionate but after yesterday I don't even feel important to him. Am I overreacting? I feel like I am now more invested in this than him and don't want to reply to his texts. If he's pulling back, I will too.

It's almost like he thinks he doesn't have to try cause he's got me???

When the cat is away the mouse will play............I think he was a little distracted.

But is that cause for worry? He's always on my mind and I can't think of a situation where I wouldn't text him back.

darling he had his phone turned off......think about it. Why would a man shut his phone off?

1 day of not texting back is not something to worry about.

One day of not texting when you've both been busy and enjoying yourselves is not a big deal. You are analyzing the situation TOO soon. Go with what you know for now -- everything surrounding this has been good, right?

 

I feel like I am now more invested in this than him and don't want to reply to his texts -- You feel like this after only one time of not getting a text from him???? I might guess, in this case, that there are other reasons you're feeling like this. So you need to think about the big picture here.

 

And, don't play this passive-aggressive card -- he didn't text me yesterday so I'm not going to answer his. All you'd being doing is throwing gas on a situation.

 

Sit back and observe a little bit before making this kind of assumption. If he's texting you now, great. Why start punishing him? He likely doesn't know that you have this problem. That's not fair.

 

Yeah, you're overreacting at this point. If it's getting to be a habit, then you start thinking about it. And, if it appears that's the case, you have a conversation about where he is in terms of the relationship. Don't play games.
