okay so my friend

and i dont know why!
ever since this one day
when my favorite show "the hills"
was on, i put up an away message
and when i came back, he left a message saying
"hii"
so i replyed, and i was about to like
tell a story
and he randomly goes
"i have to go, i cant talk now sorry"
and i was like "oh okay.. well i guess i'll go back to watching tv."
and then usually he goes like
"GOOD NIGHT!!!"
but that night he was like
"uh. gnite"
and freaking signed off!
and the past like 4-5 days
he hasnt IMed me at ALLLLLLLLL.

To be honest, this question makes me want to die.



Haven't you ever thought of IMing him first? I don't care if that's your style or not, because that's a lame rule to have. Maybe he got tired of IMing you first, or maybe he got tired of talking to you in general; I know I would.



Bottom line is that you know this guy, and we don't. There is no reason for any of us to know something you don't because he hasn't done anything. If it really bothers you so much, why don't you talk to him?

It's impossible for me to be able to tell you exactly why he hasn't IMed you.

What I do know is that your excuse for not IMing him first is ridiculous. Have you considered that he might be thinking exactly the same as you are about him?

IM him and try talking to him like you would have before. If you feel he's being off with you then ask him if everything is alright between you. If there is a problem, the only way you can work this out is if you talk. Not IMing him because 'you usually don't IM people first' is not a valid reason.

Well to be honest with you, we can't tell why he's not talking to you either.
It could be because you took a while to reply, even though you were away... or was having a bad time and just wasn't in the mood to talk when you returned.
Perhaps you offended him in a little without even realizing.
There are a wide range of possibilities and only you can find out for sure.
I know how you mean about the whole not starting conversation thing first, because I'm the same for some weird reason. But if it got to about 5 days, I'd definitely say "hey, haven't heard from you in a while" and ask how he is.
It's probably nothing to do with him having a girlfriend. Who said having a significant other had to put restrictions on your friends?

Ask and find out to be certain.
Good luck though. and I hope everything turns out just fine.
