I met him online, we were playmates for almost 1year... he had a girlfriend but they broke up 4 or 5 months ago and he still keeps on msging me till one day I told him that I love him and then few weeks later he said he loves me too...

I usually don't start a conversation so he always msg first not untill he didn't text for two days and me... just waiting till he msg me my name.I asked him "Why so busy?" Him: "Busy??? ... So I'm always the one who'll message you first/ starts a conversation?"... Me:" I thuoght you were busy so I didn't want bother you but okay I'll text you first this time" ... so yeah since then I msg'd him first but he replies in an HOUR. I got mad at him and he just said "I'm playing wtf?" So I told him that to atleast tell me so I'll know and wont end up waiting for his replies.

sorry I am very bad at english.

Maybe you should explain to him that you don't mind initiating contact so long as he doesn't purposely take too long to reply.

He may feel that he came off as a bit annoying, therefore waiting to see if you'd reply without him having to initiate conversing with you. Also, he probably waited an hour to respond because he probably didn't want to come off as clingy or needy.

Talk to him, and if this is the case and you don't feel that way, then reassure him that he's not coming off as clingy, annoying, or needy.

Something like this is often easier to sit down and discuss over coffee or tea.. Its really hard to know what someone is feeling based off just letters on a screen, lots of miscommunication can happen.

If he was playing he was obviously not staring at his phone waiting for text messages, unless you wanted him to text you saying "I'll be gaming for a few hours won't be near my phone" before he started playing?


Btw, idk anyone who does that.


If everyone got upset with me for not replying "on time" I would have no friends or bf. I don't have a job where I can use my phone freely and sometimes I just want alone time and ignore it for a while.


In my opinion, the issue isn't him taking an hour to reply, instead, you should rather look at why the delay upset you to such an extent.


No doubt the boy is interested in you, he's made that clear, initiated your conversations and so forth, so I would say you can definitely cut him some slack.


Not everyone's phones are glued to their hands.
