Whenever he does initiate text conversations, he has a frustrating habit of initiating a text, receiving your reply, then disappearing for hours without a response back.

Whether you initiate a text or he does, there is no difference.

His responses are belated.

Further, he has a propensity to text at the oddest hours, frequently waiting to text until late at night or early morning.
