5 reasons why the person you like is not texting you first

Texting that special someone is all fun and game until you realize that this cutie doesn’t text you first ever and always only responds when you text.

So if you want to take a deeper look into their texting habit, we’ve listed down a few reasons why this could be happening.

As we mentioned, the person you like could be unsure of how their game is panning out with you. They might be super shy to make the first move even if you two have been speaking for a while now. They don’t understand how to start a conversation or ease out regular communication with you. It’s alright if you’re going to text them first till the time they grow out of their shyness.

Now, some people don’t like it when you start believing that they are head over heels for you. They don’t want to feel that they are being taken for granted if they text first every time. They want to have an upper hand in the relationship and they will do so by being distant. This doesn’t mean you shoo them away; instead break down the wall and communicate with them about this issue.

You will meet people across your way who avoid talking to you often as they feel conversations with you are too repetitive, bland or simply uninteresting. You don’t bring anything new to the table and all that’s left is small talks. This is why you need to start talking about your work, hobbies, opinion on art, culture, sports, anything that interests you both. This way, both of you can share a great space to talk about anything you like.

Some people just aren’t great texters like you might be. They would rather get on a call or meet face to face and talk. These people won’t spend more than half their day on the phone texting you. So give it time and figure out how to keep conversations going on with them if you’re really into them and would want to make it work.

As there are several options available around us all the time, the uncertainty of the future only keeps increasing. And so, it might be the case that this person you’ve been trying to text a lot just isn’t committed to the equation between you both at all.
