I've been speaking to a guy I met a while back for about 3 weeks now over text and things have been really good. He seemed really keen to talk to me - long texts, emojis, calling me by my name, sending pics of what he was up to etc etc. Always letting me know if he was too busy to reply and asking about my day, asking me questions etc. We seem to have a lot in common too. We can't see each other yet as I am in a lockdown area but he kept saying he was excited to see me, saying hopefully not long now, dropping hints about what we will do etc.

Last few days he's been away and has ran out of data. Can only get WiFi in certain areas. So far he's been super truthful about everything and he sent me a screenshot of his data ran out lol. The issue isn't him texting often, but the last few days his texting habits have really changed.

A few days ago he seemed a bit blunt but yesterday was the first time he didn't text me alllll day. I want to give him the benefit of the doubt but he was posting pictures etc and online on social media. I gave in today and texted him and he's being SO weird and blunt.
He's gone from exciting texts and flirting to 'hey how you doing, can only reply on WiFi haha'. I replied and he just said 'yeah good how are you'.

I'm getting a seriously weird vibe from him because he was the one initiating and being so keen before. Things seemed so so good. I am hoping it isnt to do with me but I'm just really hurt by it for some reason? What do I do?? I am so confused

He also said he feels really bad and promises I haven't done anything wrong, he's just been struggling to piece it all together in his head and is "battling with himself" - what does this even mean lol

@IncandescentSilver

Why would you want a man who passes out from drinking too much and argues with random while drunk? At least he's being truthful and showing you who he really is to have a chance to walk away!
He sounds like me twenty years ago. A real catch Halloween Blush

It means he is shagging someone else, sorry OP. Move on you deserve better.

You sound really young OP, all this 'catching feelings' palava. He just isn't interested anymore, whatever the reason may be, and what he's saying to you seems designed to keep you hanging on, saying he's 'battling with himself'.
Fortunately for you it's only been a few weeks of texting, just forget him.
