Ruby Posted May 28, 2006 Posted May 28, 2006 Tell me what you think please everyone. I have been seeing my new man for about 5 weeks now and everything has been fine. He rings me every and has been really reliable. Yesterday I rang him and the reception was bad and we got cut off, he text me straight away to say he would call me back later as he had to go and pick up some household appliances and then get his daughter from her mums. He didnt call me back. No one in the world is too busy that they cannot take out 30 seconds to text someone. I text him and he didnt reply and I am so annoyed about it. We are supposed to be meeting tonight with mutual friends and how I feel right now is that if he does not text me by 4pm he can forget it. I am not going to play these games and feel bad and anxious. If I choose to see someone and have him in my life then it has to be fun and I have to feel secure or I cannot see the point in bothering. What do y'all think?
Lishy Posted May 28, 2006 Posted May 28, 2006 I think you should wait and see if he calls you today! Give him the time to explain - He could have been really busy and fallen asleep or he could have had an emergency. Dont jump the gun just yet!
Grrlish Posted May 28, 2006 Posted May 28, 2006 While I'd be a bit perturbed as well, I'd wait to see what he says. Don't sit and fume and think negative thoughts. If anything, think positively that there is a good explanation. I've jumped the gun enough times and come to what I thought were reasonable conclusions while thinking in a vacuum...and been wrong...that I try not to do that anymore.
Tim'sAngel Posted May 28, 2006 Posted May 28, 2006 Jeez girl, give the guy a break. I have known my SO for over a year and sometimes I don't get a phonecall if we're apart or I get one really late, but if hes busy, then hes busy. Especially if he is spending time with his daughter. When my SO is with his daughter he is all about her, and that is totally fine with me, I come second when shes around and that is my decision. If he makes a habit if not calling your for days thats one thing, but I think you overreacting on this one Sometimes texts don't always make it to you phone, thats happend to me several times, or I'll get them like a day or 2 later. Maybe he did try texting you and it just never made it
AriaIncognito Posted May 28, 2006 Posted May 28, 2006 Also, cell phone batteries can die and whatnot. Sometimes, we have to give the benefit of the doubt that it was something that the person can't control. If my cell were to die today, I'd have no way to contact the guy I've been dating, except email, since I don't have his number memorized. Sometimes, things happen that are out of our control. Give him time, hopefully it was something stupid like falling asleep or the phone needing a charge. Jennifer
norajane Posted May 28, 2006 Posted May 28, 2006 Wow, one missed phone call and you're ready to think he's playing games and you're ready to call it quits? Are you really that insecure? Stop sabotaging yourself! Give him the benefit of the doubt and don't whine about it when he does get in touch with you.
Vertex Posted May 28, 2006 Posted May 28, 2006 Holy crappola Batman, give the guy a break. Maybe it'd be an issue if he stopped calling altogether or called a LOT less, but one call?
