Three cards, all reversed — that's a spread about withheld signals, not about a hidden plan.

Past — Knight of Swords reversed. The exchanges so far have been fast-talking and then abrupt: a message that opened with momentum and closed early, more than once. That's the pattern you already feel — he goes hot, then the line just stops.

Present — The High Priestess reversed. This is the seat that matters for your question. Reversed, it's withheld information, information you don't have and can't get from the inside: you're reading silence as a message because there's no data. The card does not say he's holding a test. It says the record you have right now is too thin to tell intent from absence — and that both look identical from where you sit.

Future — Eight of Pentacles reversed. If the quiet keeps going, the tendency is more of the same unfinished repetition: you re-reading the thread, tweaking a message you haven't sent, the small chore of managing an ambiguity neither of you named.

So, conditionally: if you go back through the thread and the pattern is him starting conversations that end unresolved — that's ordinary disengagement, not a test. If the pattern is him opening consistently and then leaving the last word with you, that's someone waiting to see whether you'll close the gap.

One caveat the cards won't give you: this spread can't tell you what's in his head. Anything about another person's motives has to come from the record, not the draw.

Before you decide anything: open the thread and count the last six exchanges — who sent the first message in each, and who sent the last. Write down the answer, not the feeling.
