<human>: Give me a shortened version of the text

I love my boyfriend. We dated for a year then broke up for a year and have been back together for nearly 4 months now. When we got back together I explained how his communication was a huge issue the first time and even though he's a lot better now (like, he'll actually text occasionally now) he's still not quite what I had hoped. Because of our past breakup, I'm a little insecure about his feelings for me and sometimes get worried when we spend more than a couple weeks apart that he'll just change his mind. I talk to him when we are together about how I like when he texts me and how happy it makes me but recently (last few days) his texts have started tapering off again. He never starts the conversation and asks very few questions. I feel like I'm annoying by asking questions when all I'm trying to do is keep the conversation going. I know that some people just are not big text people but I feel like while our relationship is growing again, I need it. I don't want to sound needy especially because he is incredibly loving when we are together, just wondering if there are any tricks or tips to get him to up his text game a little.
<bot>: Boyfriend isn't an avid text-er and it's starting to get to me a little. How do I talk to him about this without sounding needy or get a grip of myself?
