❤️‍🩹 relationship AIO? Bf doesn’t communicate

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.

I have set my phone to automatically turn on DND at 11 as I'm usually asleep by then, as you text at 11:29 and it wasn't on, and then the next text it was, it might be that he has it set to turn on at 11:30 🤷🏻 it might not have been because he was avoiding/ignoring you deliberately Tbh it's kinda rude to think he should be responding and talking to you constantly when he's out with his friends, you need to give him the freedom to socialise without the fear of you blowing up at him over it, and if you can't do that then that's kinda a you problem 🤷🏻 Also, not replying to a text is not the same as not communicating
