Mixed Signals!

Options
So I've had this friend & he goes 2 a different uni than me. we've known eachother for about a yr and a half and we got really close over the summr and shiz and we started skyping/ txting all the time.

Around mid Nov. he started getting rlly busy with finals and he stopped sending me good morning/ good night texts/ stopped txting me first 4 the most part. We still talk-- we've skyped maybe three times between then and now. And still all the time he says he loves talking to me and he *hugs* me in our conversations all the time, but I've noticed a change....

I mean, okay, I know this all sounds kinda weird and all but I really have noticed that we don't talk as much. What I don't want to happen is for me 2 keep contacting him more than he wants me 2 or something 'cause i don't want him 2 think i'm clingy.

I rlly want 2 start the new year off fresh and on a good foot but i don't know if I should talk to him about why he hasn't been contacting me as much? Would that seem intrusive/ give him 2nd thoughts if he didn't already have them? I mean, he's still really nice when we do talk and he flirts w/ me a bit i think but I'm getting so many mixed signals & I rlly don't know what to do!

    Please tell me you don't text talk to him in real life as well.

    Is it that hard to complete a word?

    Go get the book "He is just not that into you" and read it.

    Well I can't even tell what the heck you are trying to say. Type again in whole words and we'll see if we can help.
    I will say however that text talk usually means some kind of lack of maturity. Which, people don't like.

    if you really want advice...grow some balls and straight out ask him what is up....you seem to have a great friendship, and yes you two were busy at school, so since its the start to a new semester/new year be upfront with him.

    He's busy, you're busy. You are both living your own lives. It's normal to grow apart.

    Everyone else railed on your writing so I'll just leave it alone. :grumble:

    I know how you feel, I've been where you are now, and I've learned a lot about men. If you want real advice, private message me.

    Simply asking him if there's been a change in the friendship (either way) seems a reasonable thing. You might not get a straight answer, but you at least would have done the adult thing and approached it well.

    I'm not trying to be mean, but writing so we can understand you would go along way..

    But from what I can understand:

    He's not talking to you as much as he was?
    You want to know why?

    Ask him.
    Talk to him.
    Be an adult
    If he won't answer you, then quit wasting your time

    sorry linds...I disagree.

    Last thing guys like is why? why? why?

    You're probably over-thinking this. I wouldn't worry about talking to him "too much". He's probably been busy during the holidays and I'm sure he'd like to hear from you.
