<human>: Could you distill the essence of the text into 1-3 sentences?

We have been hooking up since November. Recently, feelings have entered the picture by both of us and we are slowly getting a bit more serious.

Normally when a guy likes me, he texts me constantly. He (Bo) does not do that. When I am with him he is very sweet and affectionate. When I am not with him he doesn't really do anything to show he has feelings for me. Tired of being confused by his mixed signals I decided I would leave him alone. If he wanted me he would come to me; I was done trying. I didn't tell him I had decided this. I just wasn't going to pursue him anymore.

A day after I decided this, like he could feel my mood change, he sent me a text message that essentially said that he hoped we were okay, that I'm not the first girl who thought he didn't give a damn, that he's trying to do better to make sure that the people whose company he likes and wants to keep knows he wants it, and that he hopes this was a step in the right direction. I was happy he said that as it made me make sense of some things and I stayed at his house that night and it was great.

I expected us to now be on a more serious track, but he still does not text me often. When a guy likes me, I am used to him texting me a lot, wanting to hang out a lot, asking when he can see me next. Bo rarely does this, and it hurts my feelings. He even will go a whole day without speaking to me. He claims he is just extremely bad at relationships, but I don't see how it can be this hard. I am not sure what to do.
<bot>: He is not affectionate unless we are together. He does not make a point to talk to me frequently. He basically acts like he doesn't care about me unless we are together. Is this a bad sign?
