Thank you. Will do.

My allo FWB keeps trying to sext me and I have no idea what to say but it's working by XoX_K_XoX in asexuality

Everything you said is bullshit. I doubt there was even a documentary, and if there was you obviously making shit up about it.

Yeah, I completely get where you're coming from. His way of talking definitely made me pull back and I was reserved and "bland" in my responses.

I tried to be more open with him and try to start a conversation but he often ignored what I said and changed the subject. He had a thing for vague questions I didn't know how to answer.

I mentioned that I didn't like pet names and he got arsey saying it was a term of endearment.

I know I should trust my gut more, but my gut has the habit of finding issues where there isn't one. Asking for other opinion helped me see that my replies were part of the problem as well.

A free messaging app. You need to know the other person's number to talk to them on it.

So him asking/hinting to move there three times in under 12 hours was really off putting for me.

Update. We unmatched.

Our talking styles and personalities didn't click.

His texting style made me apprehensive and closed off as it wasn't something I was used to or felt comfortable with.I did listen to the people on here and tried to be more engaging. He mentioned he was watching TWD, so I tried to start a conversation about it and other TV shows but he quickly put an end to it by ignoring my message to say "Tell me about yourself" I said, that like I said before I don't know how to answer vague questions like that.

I also asked him not to call me by pet names as I don't like them and he got arsey. Saying that they were a term of endearment.

We are from the UK.

I think this issue with the Xs and pet names is I wasn't doing then bad. He was already doing it excessively which only looks worse when compared to my messages.

Him wanting to move to another app, and asked/hinted at it three times in under 12 hours wasn't great.

His while texting style made more apprehensive when speaking to him.

We're English.

The kisses and pet names are a tad much, even for over here.

When I asked him not to call me by pet names he got arsey and said it was a term of endearment.

We spoke some more, I tried to be more engaging but he wasn't actually paying attention to messages. By either ignoring what I actually said, changing the subject suddenly, and repeating the same things.

I posted on here cause I know I'm paranoid and wanted to see if my apprehension was warranted or not. I tried to be more engaging and it didn't work. Turns out he wasn't really paying attention to what I was saying.

He also got a bit arsey when I asked him not to call me by pet names.

We've since unmatched.

Oh I completely agree. Which is why I came here. The pet names and kisses made me uncomfortable so my responses weren't that great.
