Dear girl,
Sometimes, you just have to accept the message behind the reason why he isn't messaging you. Getting no message from him is still a message, and that message is he doesn't want to talk to you, he has nothing to say to you, and he isn't missing you enough to message you first. Men will always make time and take the initiative to text the girl first if she's someone he's interested in no matter how busy they are because that girl would be prioritized by them. He used to text you all of the time and every day, right? And then eventually, he wasn't texting back as fast and he wasn't replying back as often. After that, he stopped texting you completely. If he isn't messaging you and you know he was capable of doing that before, then his attention is no longer going towards you and he's now focused on another girl who's managed to pique his curiosity. I know you still check your phone throughout the day to see if it's him who just texted you and you get a little disappointed when it isn't. I know you still lie there in bed trying to resist being the one who starts the conversation because you don't want to be annoying or a bother. I know you still wait to hear from him because you have your moments where you miss him even though you wish you didn't. But what's best for you is to not wait around for a message that isn't coming, because there isn't anything here anymore and you deserve someone who wants to talk to you every day.
Sincerely,
A guy who cares
