    I'm so glad I taught my girlfriend that I simply don't like texting... It's annoying fodder... If you have something to say, call me. I am more than willing to talk to you. But getting a text saying "hey" is just stupid... Obviously you want to talk, so let's talk. The thing about talking is that you can do it while doing something else. You could be driving, eating, watching a movie, fixing something around the house and still be able to talk. But texting requires you to dump everything you are doing and focus on jabbing a touchscreen! Really annoying! So I would say yes... Very normal.

      Completely agree. I hate texting. My texts are limited to emojis, one-word replies like ok, perfect, and saying "see you in a bit". I'd rather meet up than text. Too time-consuming for my taste. Ain't nobody got time for that!

    That’s perfectly normal. It’s no cause for alarm that he didn’t text you for one day.
    Conversely, you shouldn’t be afraid to text him. He’s your boyfriend, after all - one of the closest people you can have in your life.
    It’s just a momentary fluke. Everything is fine.

    I'm kinda like you when my fiancé doesn't text me for like an hour I get very stressed and imagine weird shit in my head that just means you love him and care about him it's normal

      That's nothing to do with love, that's obsessive dependency and getting stressed over it is not normal

    For a long time I used to worry when my boyfriend didnt text me, there is no harm in calling your boyfriend or texting him how you feel or just trying to spark a conversation with him. If you want to talk to him just ask him about his day and go from there I bet he would appreciate it <3

    That's completely fine! He probably just got busy and forgot.

    You can ask him to text you more. He's your boyfriend after all, I'm sure he'd understand wanting to hear from him.
