How do I respond to this mans texts??

Met this guy on the apps. Decent looking. Not a great texter. We had a phone call. Not a great chatter either he was awkward and could really carry a convo.

He lives about 2.5 hrs from my city and I suggested meeting halfway somewhere his responses were like I could make a weekend trip out there that'd be fun . And I'm like up to you , I typically just do like a coffee for a first meet.

He tried to schedule a meet but I had too much goin on. I also told him I was moving so just wanted to be friends. He stopped trying to schedule a meet and started texting me about stuff he was doin at work and sending photos. I would as well send photos of my work. It went on like this, every 3 days it so I'd get a text and an exchange like this.

Finally I said hey I don't think there's enough reciprocated interest to continue chatting.

He responded a day later, apologized for being inconsistent. Then followed up and said he'd be more attentive.

Then later, sent me photos of his time on vacation, and photos of I guess his family and food they're having and stuff he's seeing. Calling me darling, and cutie and stuff.

We haven't even met yet. He hadn't asked me anything about me , only what I'm doing in my day, and sharing his day and giving me pet names and it's weird.

If we had met already, gotten to know each other, decided we liked each other, it idk... We're already dating, I'd expect this sort if communication.

But I have no idea who the little kids are in his photos and I don't understand sending that to someone you haven't even met yet.

I don't know how to respond to him
