Let's see, it's the first time to send a text message to a man I like. What happened?

Let me give you a brief analysis. There are several possibilities:

1, he is busy, so it takes a long time to reply to the text message;

2. When he saw your news, he was at a loss and asked his friends or others what to do.

He was afraid of saying something wrong to you, so he conceived it to ensure that you wouldn't resent the content of his short message.

I only think of these at present, you can learn from them, hoping to solve your confusion!
