I met a guy on tinder, been speaking to him for about a week through WhatsApp. Seems a nice guy, and we are meeting for a coffee on Sunday - all good.
The only thing that's getting me is he literally texts me essays, every single message he sends is so long, so long in fact that I have to click the "read more" button on virtually every message. His messages are interesting and he responds to what I say and asks lots of questions. But I already find myself reading a message and then not replying for 5 or 6 hours because it seems like such an effort to write a response back to his big essays. My responses are much shorter.
Is this normal? I've never had this before?
Is there a polite way to say slow down?
