Is this normal?

[Lumanos]

Boyfriend(1 and a half years) has a hectic job and is stressed half of the time. He can sometimes go for 1 or 2 days without texting me and it wouldn't be a big deal to him! He just remains normal! Whereas I end up becoming a nervous wreck waiting for him to text because I don't want to be the one initiating all the time. Also he sucks at texting. Should I make a big deal if this if we're great and enjoy a lot when we meet?

It's normal. Nothing to worry about.

[Lumanos]

Ah, it's just it's been happening a lot lately.

[SkellyWoozle]

Nah, don't worry about it. He's cr*p at texting. So long as you're happy when you're together then mither ye not X

Oh no. This sounds like a classic case of Grown Ass Man syndrome. Be very careful, OP.

Since when did being in a relationship mean he's now on a texting leash? It's not a big deal.

Do you keep busy with your friends/family/hobbies while you wait to hear from him or do you just wait to hear from him?

[Lumanos]

I keep busy with my work and family

Well, that should help you with your anxiety as would doing fun things with your friends your age. If he's seeing you regularly and contacting you when he can then try your best to chillax. He "has a hectic job and is stressed half the time."

Normal. I see nothing wrong with it. My husband and I never, ever, ever text each other - occasionally, we'll text a message if one of us is running late (for whatever), but that's it, but even that is rare.

 

Should I make a big deal if this

 

WHY on earth make a big drama over nothing at all? Making mountains out of mole hills will not lead to a happy, healthy, successful relationship.
