Sometimes I think the relentless connectivity we live in puts so much pressure on relationships. With all the options we have for contacting someone these days comes increased responsibility to be constantly in touch coupled with the worry that you might seem too clingy, too distant, too overbearing, too flaky...The list is endless. Try to enjoy the anticipation of hearing from him again in your nightly phone call or whatnot, and like the last commenter said, if it gets serious, you may be able to bring him around. ;) Ah, I miss the days of answering machines and snail mail!

Compromise, you know? It's not all about him and how he thinks it should be done. You've got a say, too! And a text here and there is well worth a happy girlfriend, dontcha think? Good luck!

Sometimes when I do his laundry, I'll slip a little note in his pocket so that when he wears his pants next he'll find it. It's sweeter and comes as more of a surprise. There are downsides, like if my car breaks down or something, but so far I've not had any problems and we've been together for 6 months.

Truthfully - I get tired of competing with them and sort of appreciate "disconnecting" from time to time. I hope you can do it! Try it, you might like it. Just leave your Binky with me and I'll take care of her. I promise not to tweet on your behalf. Actually, I don't promise that. :-) I think I would seriously enjoy dating someone without any major connection to electronics.
