10 Likely Reasons Why He Isn’t Texting Back

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UCF chapter.

We’ve all been there. You thought everything was going great, but you haven’t gotten a text back in hours, or maybe even days. Your mind is probably racing and jumping straight to the worst conclusions. To calm your nerves, here’s a list of probable reasons why he isn’t responding.

 

He took a nap and put his phone on Do Not Disturb and forgot to take it off.

 

He dropped his phone in the toilet in a public place and decided it was best to just leave it.

 

He was at the gym and accidentally dropped a barbell on his phone.

 

His phone died because he used all his battery while looking up love songs to sing to you.

 

He was baking you a cake and he accidentally dropped his phone in the batter.

 

He went to a meadow to hand pick wild flowers for you and he has no service.

 

He was saving dogs from an animal shelter, but the puppies drooled too much and now his phone is water damaged.

 

He was gathering rocks to throw at your window in the middle of the night, but he dropped one on his phone and broke it.

 

He was saving orphans from a burning building and his phone perished in the flames.

 

He was hanging a life sized portrait of you on his wall, but he got so distracted by your beauty that he accidentally hammered the nail into his phone.

 

If none of these reasons are true and he just isn’t responding, then you should drop him like a mix tape. He’s the one missing out.
