Whether it was a wrong decision or not is subjective and depends on the context of your relationship and your personal needs and expectations.

If you felt that your relationship was not being taken seriously and that the primary form of communication (texting) was contributing to this feeling, setting a boundary can be a healthy way to communicate your needs. It's important in any relationship to make your needs known and to set boundaries that make you feel comfortable and valued.

However, it's also important to understand that not everyone communicates in the same way. For some, texting is a more convenient or preferred method of communication, and asking them to switch exclusively to calls might make communication less frequent or more difficult for them.

In your case, his stop in texting could mean a few things:

  1. He is respecting your boundary but hasn't found the right time or context to call you yet.
  2. He might feel put off by the sudden change in communication rules, and might be unsure about how to proceed.
  3. He might not be comfortable with phone calls or may not see them as his preferred method of communication.

It's crucial to have a conversation about these concerns. Ask him why he has stopped communicating since your request, express why you made this request, and try to reach a compromise that suits both your needs.

Remember, a healthy relationship is based on open communication, understanding, and mutual respect for each other's needs and boundaries.
