Could be married. Could be an introvert. Could be not into you. Could be anti-heavy communication. Could be tired from work.

Regardless, you are looking for more from this person than they want to give. What you're looking for is in the realm of normal. All of the above excuses, while some are reasonable, are never going to change. He'll always either: be married, be an introvert, be not into you, be anti-heavy communication, be tired from work. If that doesn't work for you, move on.

He’s playing a game.

So glad texting wasn’t a thing when I was dating DW

Wow, daily check in is extreme. My boyfriend and I don't do that. Sometimes I'm just flat out too tired.

This. Geez.

Reread that. I feel bad for anyone who thinks you’re their friend.

Most people are having sex after two months of nice weekly dates. It’s not too much to expect the person you’re banging to say good morning or good night. It takes 5 secs.

No, I certainly don’t expect that. I don’t need or necessarily want a daily check in if I’m sleeping with you because I’m too busy for neediness.

That doesn’t make someone who expects daily check-ins “needy.”

Oh and maybe he is hoping to slow down your texting…

He sounds like a very compartmentalized person. He has days for dates and he has days for other things (not necessarily cheating). Some people are miffed when they receive chit chatty meaningless texts.
I have a female friend who has a strictly one track mind. It takes her serious effort to juggle various things. It makes things like ordering food or some other things of the same level of planning effort just too much for her at times.

He just sounds like a normal introvert to me.

I don't have the patience to date people that text/call/email constantly. Give me some space.

Guys are weird. I've dated some non-texters but it was/should have been a red flag. He really could be dating someone else. Any chance his name starts with A?
I'd investigate and listen. If you matter, he can easily change his habits.

He’s married
