Relationship advice?

[CountryWolf07]

Wouldn't have hurt him to reply to you would it?

Is that a agreement? lol.. if it is, then that's what I mean from all this. Guess it's just a guy thing.

I am also wondering if it could truely been time restraints. It is easier to call Mom or sis just to say I am coming home tomorrow, gotta go (and cut them off), than it is a girl friend whom you haven't seen for two weeks. Rather than get into a rushed conversation and perhaps hurting your feelings by cutting you off quickly, he sent you word that all was well, and he will have a long and meaningful conversation with you when he gets home.

Wise words there.

Don't sweat the small stuff.

Yes he was probably just being thoughtless - he will be really happy to see you

[MoonandBean]

Being a country music fan , you could play him the song "it matters to me" by Faith Hill and see what his reaction is. If he seems unaffected, maybe he's just not the right guy for you anymore. You'll be able to tell...

I wish you the best!

I don't think it is "just a guy thing", for what its worth. Not a good guy thing, anyway. Do you usually go more than a day without speaking to each other? If so, then I wouldn't worry about it. But with technology the way it is (text messaging, computers, etc), it does seem like he could have at least acknowledged your message, even if it was to say he was too busy to talk. Just my humble opinion!! Hope you get it all figured out.

I'm the last person to offer relationship advice, but I keep picking up from you at various times what I interpret as some kind of *gut instinct* on your part that you don't want to listen to. I may be wrong on that, but if I'm not, all I can say is *trust your gut*.

I wouldn't stress about it too much. I think it might be as somebody else said, he just doesn't have the time to really talk and doesn't want to seem uninterested or rude by cutting you short. When you see him and know the whole story this whole thing will seem silly to you. Just wait it out, it'll all be okay

[shepgirl]

I wouldn't let this brew in my heart till you see him. By then you will have worked up some resentment and he'll feel it. Accept it for what he said it was, just short on time and worn out. You'll know if anything has changed after seeing him and having a long talk. I wouldn't corner him right now, wait for what he has to say.

I think it's a matter of whatever your pattern and routine is w/each other. For ex.: my last boyfriend called me every day and expected me to do the same, even though I told him when we first met that I wasn't the type to expect a call every day and I wouldn't be calling him every day either. Once, after a day of motorcycle riding, he took me home and I thought that I'd do something nice by calling and leaving a message on his land line for him to come home to, a sweet message saying that I had a wonderful time, etc. It was a one time deal. Or so I thought. After that, he expected me to do that every time and, if I forgot or got busy w/the Fur Posse or whatever, he'd get his nose out of joint. He took a loving gesture on my part and turned it into an obligation. I'm not suggesting that this is what you're doing, just pointing out that everyone has their own expectations and routines. If you can agree on how often to call each other, etc. and stick to it, rather than one person having expectations and the other not being able or willing to live up to those expectations, then it'll all work out fine. (Have I totally confused you now?) LOL

Rachel, I'll have to go with Joyce(Ginger's Mom) on this one. It's exactly what I was thinking. He may have had time for a quick call only. Especially if you two don't talk every day. Keep us posted. I'm going out of town until Monday so I'll check back then and see if you went to the wedding. I hope it all goes well for you. I know how crazy you are about him. I really think everything is ok. He's crazy about you too.
