Guy I met from OLD, strange behaviour. Not sure what to think.

Matched with someone from OLD, from the offset he was a bit flakey in terms of arranging a time to speak on the phone (despite being his suggestion) We eventually managed to speak on the phone and got on well. We have also face timed after and also got on well during. He was in regular contact and then all of a sudden didn't hear from him for week. Sent him a message and locked him off and said i wouldn't accept flakiness from the offset and good luck to him. He sent me a v long message telling me he really enjoyed talking to and getting to know me but there was a lot going on in his life but he still wanted to meet me.
So we ended up meeting and got on so well. He text me immediately after we left each other to say I was really beautiful and lovely and looked forward to seeing me again. We've met up a further two times. Nothing has happened between us, no kiss other than a peck on cheek, nothing of an intimate nature.
Now all of a sudden. He's going up to 24 hours at a time before he reads my WhatsApps. My last message remains unread from him since 3pm yesterday when he was last online, I haven't tried to contact him again.
I'm not sure what's going on.. I don't think he has someone else on the go as we have met up and been in constant contact with each other.
Is it reasonable to think perhaps he's got bored as nothing has happened after 3 dates? This isn't the first time he's taken over 24 hours to even open a message to read. I find it a bit rude but haven't said anything.
Not sure whether to just lock him off again. I really like him and know he likes me too, just seems like non starter.

I think in these situations the best thing to do is stop trying to figure out what he's doing / thinking and focus on what you're thinking.

Do you enjoy this treatment? I'm guessing no or you wouldn't be posting here. Who cares why he's doing it. He's doing it, you don't like it. Bin him and move on till you find someone who meets your standards. Never reduce your own standards.
