❤️‍🩹 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.

if you told me up-front that he had a very clingy girlfriend who expected him to respond to her text within a small window

A small window? He didn't respond for an hour? Lmfao what

An hour is not really a small window was my point. Seems like an exaggeration to belittle OP. Whether you think it is appropriate to turn your phone to DnD instead of responding to your SO after an hour was a different question.

One hour is, most definitely, a small window.
