 If everything else in your relationship is fine then don't put so much importance on this. I'll take a wild guess here but I think he's not that comfortable with putting those words in a text, it's just the way some people are.
I don't think you should be asking him if he's ok or if everything's alright when he doesn't respond...this just makes it seem like you're insecure and need to know you and him are ok 24/7, it can become annoying. Relax a little.

 some guys just arnt good at words. Im in a LDR my boyfriend NEVER texts me or calls me or messages me and if i send him a text and he does happen to text me back it will never say he misses me or he loves me. But when im there he treats me like a queen tells me he misses me and loves me he just said he doesn't like phones. I know what hes like in 8 years of friendship hes never really been the communication type. Maybe your man is just like that and finds it hard to relay how he feels with words. After all he is a man :)
