I’m gonna answer this question and throw up a poll to see if you agree.
No. No, he isn’t interested. I know this and yet I still find myself scratching my head when a man proclaims interest, but has this idea that he can text you 24/7 without ever calling. I can’t lie. I might be inclined to accept this some of the time if that’s what schedules permitted, but these are the same men with dry conversation. You wanna text me to death *and* have nothing to say at the same time? No. Be witty and intelligent, at minimum.
Why do y’all think this is? I mean, I know some people aren’t good at conversation. I know some have social anxiety or lack of confidence in their ability to convey ideas. But tell me – can you really get to know someone solely by text? And why would you/they want to if you have technology that allows you to “talk?”
I know my annoyance is coming through. But it’s the labor. The labor that I refuse to do – teach conversational skills, carry the weight of conversations by myself, guess what people are thinking, etc. No. If they can’t use their words – no. I’m also not signing up for boredom.

My Female Persuasion 
I don’t think you can get to know a person via text . I feel in reality it’s best to at least pick up the phone . I’ve dated a few men that just want to text and it always seems like they were hiding something . Also, if a grow man is really interested in a mature relationship the least he can do is try and invest time in phone conversations, to start with. If it goes beyond two weeks of texting only it’s not acceptable .
I think the bottom line that some men resort to texting is they aren’t willing or ready to put in effort . Maybe they are just playing games or hiding something .

No, I think if they’re interested they’d call. Adults know what they want and I’m not a texter so after the 1st day of texting I’d be asking him to call or I’d stop texting back.

good perspective regarding you asking them to call. I give it a few days and lose interest altogether.

completely agree. if it starts off with poor communication, in my experience, it doesn’t get better and I just can’t do the labor.

For me , only texting is not acceptable. If he call you, that means he’s interested. I will say sometimes listening to a person talk , you will learn a lot. You will know if they are full of games. Listen for excuses and pay attention to the times they call you as well. There is more to look for but it will just turn into writing a book. There is 24 hours in a day, if he can’t spare 10 minutes…. that’s not your man.
