gothowitz Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 Last night, I asked my boyfriend to call me, because I haven't talked to him except via text since Saturday. He replied that he was at a friend's house watching a hockey game--in other words, he didn't want to. I wasn't too happy about this, so I decided to just say good night. He texts me a few minutes later saying that he could call me after the game. I didn't say anything anymore, and an hour and a half later, he tried ringing me, but I did not pick up. This morning, he texted to ask if I was still mad at him, and I said that I felt that he'd blown me off, and that now I know that watching hockey with friends was really important to him. He hasn't said anything yet since. I know that some people reading something like this would be thinking that I'm being too clingy, demanding, and selfish. The thing is, though, last night was the first time that I'd expressly asked him to call me in the four months that we've been seeing each other. I've never asked him where he was going or who with, and I've put up with things like not getting a phone call from him for almost two weeks (text only) even though I'd left him a voice message while he was out of town. I don't demand of his time, and I do things for him that I think he'd appreciate. Lately, I've been feeling that he gets in touch with me only when it's convenient for him, and last night just really annoyed the crap out of me. It's like he didn't even wanna try to find out why I was asking him to call in the first place. He'd rather make me wait an hour and a half than find out if something had happened to me. It scares me to think that one day, I might call on him, needing my boyfriend, but he won't be there 'cause he's having dinner with friends and left his phone at home because he didn't wanna be disturbed or something. What do you guys think?
denisss Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 I think you are being a little unreasonable. You didn't express that it was urgent for him to call and he did call you straight after he'd finished what he was doing. Was it urgent to speak to him at that time? Probably not.
Star Gazer Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 You're being unreasonable. Just because it was the first time you ever asked him to call you doesn't mean he should drop what he's doing and do so.
Saxis Posted June 7, 2011 Posted June 7, 2011 Why ask him to call? That's what I don't understand. If you want to talk to him, call him! If he doesn't answer, leave a message, express that you'd like him to call back. It's simple stuff and you're turning it into childish games...
