my original/ background post is http://www.loveshack.org/forums/romantic/dating/541278-friend-said-since-i-m-not-his-gf-don-t-call-after-surgery

 

The day of surgery I initiated contact by texting saying I hoped it went well etc, he replied shortly after and we texted for a bit, said he liked my gift, I was awesome for getting it etc.

 

I called him when I got out of work and left a VM. He texted back soon after and we chatted some more. I eventually said I had to go ( do my hobby) and have a good night.

 

Day 1 post op he snap chatted me w pic of his bandages/ machine he has to use. With the caption " my life for 2 weeks". We texted quite a bit and then I sent him 2 pics through out the day/ early evening that reminded me of him. We talked like we normally would, joked around, he made some sexual references ( all typical convo for us).

 

I then said I had to get going and hoped he continued to feel better.

 

Is it needed to check in/ text everyday? I know if he was well the answer would be definitely pull back at times and let him come to me. I'm just not sure how to play it since he's the one who is basically confined to the couch for 2 weeks.

 

I'm definitely still continuing with my life as he is laid up. I have work, exercise, do my various hobbies, appointments, and plans to see friends this weekend. So I'm not just sitting around waiting for him to heal.

Ok you silly girl :-)

 

Just text him the same way you did before his surgery. You've been dating for 2 months, you won't push him away because you check up on him regularly after his surgery. You need to relax. It's obvious you like him, he likes you, stop over analyzing your every move.

I think this is kinda cute. These are the kind of forum threads I enjoy because the OP is willing to hear our thoughts and be guided by our own wisdom as well as past mistakes.

 

I agree with Gaeta. Relax sweetie. I LOVE that you have a life outside of this guy which is more than most girls on here so kudos!

 

He seems to be reciprocating and appears to be appreciative of the effort so just keep doing what you're doing including living your life.

 

Good luck.

I texted him today and it was one of the " low" days for him. We chatted for a bit and he seemed to be in decent spirits still asking how my days was, etc. we talked some more and I told him I had to eat lunch and to enjoy his walk.

 

He thanked me for checking in on him. I just feel a little helpless but I guess all I can do is show my support/ concern through texts. His mom is living with him for the next 2 weeks or so to help out so that's good at least.

Expect him to have a few more pounds when you see him ;-)

 

When my mom left after my surgery I had to put myself and my dog on a diet lol
