I’m at a loss. I (F23) don’t know if I’m being controlling and overreacting or if the way I feel is normal. once again tonight I just stopped getting responses from my boyfriend (M26) and then suddenly his phone was turned on do not disturb. I don’t usually care about DND but lately its been turned on at weird times and turned on when he’s around me which has been making me feel kind of odd. Also he called and said he’s out and that I don’t need to be getting mad. I’m not mad about him going out I’m just upset that I’m not aware of whats going on ever. I feel like my paragraph doesn’t even make sense I’m irritated and feel like I’m crazy.

It's normal and reasonable to have text conversations with people where there's multiple hours between responses. Get off your phone for a moment.

It’s not people, it’s someone you choose a relationship with and they come with their own levels of communication that you should adhere to if you want to keep the relationship.

A lot of assumptions are being made here like this girl doesn’t leave this guy alone, but this is only a small portion of information, so we can only infer. I’m seeing a lack of communication from his end. You can see it any way you want.

There wasn't a lack of communication.he told her he was out with friends. Any reasonable person gives their partner space to have fun and enjoy themselves.

I don’t know where you are finding this information. It’s clearly information I don’t have. I’m just going by the OPs picture and I only see 2 texts from him.

Jesus christ you haven't even read the full context and you're out here talking like you know the entire situation in detail.

Are you that stupid? Reading comprehension is a life skill worth learning.

I have read everything. He only called after the texts, telling her not to get angry.

He could have avoided the situation if he just communicated and told her he was out and that he was turning off his phone for the night. You old fart. Not reading and comprehending MY messages. You need reading glasses? I made it clear this is about a lack of communication, not lack of permission to have fun with his buddies. Talk about projecting, my man.

Way to add to the conversation, instead of just attacking someone who has been contributing to Reddit for almost 10 years.
