It started after a specific message
Something landed wrong
If you can trace the shift to one exchange, a misread or hurt feeling may be sitting under it. A calm check-in helps.

REAL DECODES
Sudden dryness, by the likely cause.
He's stressed or busy
Often situational
Outside pressure shrinks people's texting bandwidth. If warmth returns when life calms down, it wasn't about you.
It's becoming the new normal
Cooling interest
Dryness that sticks around and spreads to plans and warmth usually means fading interest, not a bad day.
You over-texted and he retreated
Reset needed
Sometimes dryness is a reaction to too much, too fast. Easing off can restore a healthier rhythm.

FAQ
More about sudden dryness.
Why did he suddenly start texting dry?
Common causes are something that landed wrong, outside stress, cooling interest, or a reaction to over-texting. The trigger and whether it persists tell you which. DearHim helps you narrow it down.
Should I ask why he's being dry?
You can, once and calmly — 'You've felt a bit short lately, all good?' Don't interrogate. If dryness is the new normal despite asking, believe the pattern.
How do I respond to dry texts?
Don't overcompensate with extra effort. Match his energy and keep your life full. If interest is real, it'll re-engage. I can help you respond.
