However after a few weeks he kept taking longer and longer to reply, he did apologise for this as he had been working full time and had been really busy which i understood. We carried on talking for another week or so but his texts got shorter and blunter and he was taking a day or more to reply even though i could see that he was active on other social media. I felt he could be losing interest so i decided to end the text conversation and not speak to him for a couple of days to see if he would text me first. After a few days he did text me first asking how i was and was replying quickly which told me he was still interested to some extent. But after just a few days he went back to taking ages to reply. Is it that hes not interested or is it that hes just really bad at texting and holding a conversation?

 He doesn't seem to be interested Sweetie. The thing is he texted after a few days as you showed him no interest. He probably likes to chat to you now and again but nothing more. If you are looking to date, try looking closer to home.

 Yep, he is not interested in anything but to have someone to chat with occasionally when he is bored.
If you are looking for a relationship or someone to talk to, look closer to home. Texting is all fine and dandy, but it's rarely sustainable and neither is having a "relationship" where the contact is mainly texting.
Spend time with PEOPLE, around PEOPLE - TALK to people without the tech.

Don't waste any more time with this guy. He's not worth the stress.

You seemed to be able to text fine so why couldn't he?

 I have no idea what the reason is but, sweetheart, you are only young. Why are you wasting your life on some random guy a long way away who blows hot and cold with texting you?
Life is for living. Get out there, have fun with friends, meet someone closer to home who you can have a real relationship with, not just exchanging text messages.
