A 'closure' message. Is it always a bad idea?

Have been seeing someone for almost 6 months. It has been casual. A few dates, some walks, phone conversations and sleeping together 6 times. We message every couple of days if not more and have done throughout.

I like him and was incredibly attracted to him but it's just fizzled. He is always too busy to meet up and It's lost momentum.

I want to almost-daily messages to end now. But I don't want to be so blunt as to block him. I've tried to keep my responses short / no questions. How can I just draw a line under this without making it in to a big deal.

I think you sent a really nice closure message. Perhaps there was a little wriggle room / future fishing room for him in it. But you not answering him will clarify that for him! Him ignoring the content of his message is a sign of his immaturity or self-centreedness?

I can understand how all this could make you feel down. But give yourself time. This will eventually pass. I suspect sooner rather than later.

sorry, ignoring the content of your message, not his.

Thank you.
Well, nothing further has been received. So I guess the penny dropped.

Not at my best right now, but I'll get there.
