That's not a conversation. If you were to do that in person, there would be some kind of acknowledgment of the other person's response, whether it's through talking or body language. Once you ask a question and receive a response, you wouldn't just walk away without reacting in any way. I understand texting is different, but some people still want a similar dynamic as it helps them understand what's going on and perhaps feel closer to their partner. Even just an "OK, gotcha" or whatever works for the two of you is fine. When it comes to communication, little things like that go a long way.

Bringing old stuff into a new relationship is a different story. Of course that should be worked on.
