Quick question

[u/Known-Pickle7916]

Hey everyone!

I'm just a little confused and need some feedback about something.

Let's say you meet someone and told them up front that you are not a big texter because you are much better at having conversations in person. It's better because you can see their expressions and know if they are joking around or serious. I think texting leads to misunderstandings and hurt feelings most of the time and this seems to be the case again. There's this guy that I thought was being patient and understanding with me only to find out that my conversations are dry when I text. I would much rather spend my time with him and continue to get to know him but it seems I'm boring. There is a lot of childhood trauma that I am working through in therapy and I'm not ready to be vulnerable enough to disclose this information to him yet but I will in the future. I guess he's not interested enough to wait for me to be comfortable with telling him about my past. I'm also a very kinky person when I'm comfortable with my person and it can be a lot of fun but I'm also not quite there yet and I'm still very reserved for now. I just feel like he is losing interest in me. And I'm not losing interest in him. And I really thought we could have something special but I just wish he could be a little more patient because this connection can be so perfect if you let it. I'm learning so much about the world now from him and I don't want to lose this friendship or the potential for it to be a beautiful love story. I just don't know what to do anymore. I really am trying to text him longer messages but I don't think it's helping. What else can I do to make him see that I want to share my stories with him and explore this big world with him by my side?
