I don't have many complaints about my relationship. My bf is good to me and I know he loves me.

 

Here's the thing .. he has been out of town for a week. During that time, he told me a few times how much he missed me.

 

He got back into town this morning and I was really excited thinking we could spend the day together since I haven't seen him and since we have talked about a total of 15 minutes all week. I hadn't mentioned this to him yet but planned to bring it up when he got into town.

 

He called me just a bit ago when he got home and told me we could spend a little bit of time together tonight. And that just really bummed me out. Why would spending time with me not be a major priority?

 

He has nothing going on today. And mind you, he was on a dang mini vacation with his dad & grandpa all week, so he did not have a hard week.

 

What gives? I'm trying not to be overly sensitive. And I know he can't read my mind. But now I don't want to suggest spending time together if that's not what he's thinking.

 

Guys, what gives? If you hadn't seen your girlfriend/had barely gotten to talk to her in a week, wouldn't spending time with her be first priority?

So you want to spend more time with him upon his return from vacation...but you're not going to tell him that and instead try to figure out what he's thinking by asking anyone but him.

 

See what's wrong with this picture?

 

Tell him you want to see him more. See what he says.

I see what you're saying and I did just text him a few minutes ago.

 

But I want him to hang out with me because he wants to. Not because I'm upset about it, which is why I didn't bring it up.

It's not like he refused to hang out with you at all. He did suggest spending time together, just not as much as you wanted/expected. He might be tired and not at his best. Even when you've been on vacation, it's easy to feel tired on the way home, especially if you've left early in the morning. You did say he returned just this morning.

The OP is overreacting. Keep it up and you won't be invited on his next vacation.
