Amount of time spent on college work?

    I'm not sure if this is the right forum...

    But how much time do people generally spent on college work/assignments and study?
    I'm waiting on a text from a friend (/wants to be more than a friend) of mine, he's in the middle of an arguement with me, saying he feels I speak to him like he is a woman.

    I really don't understand what he means by that and I am thinking now that he is avoiding me. Fair enough if he can't text during lectures, but there is usually a ten minute break in between them where he could have easily text to say he was going to be busy all day other than just leaving me wonder what he is talking about.
    And then he spend the entire evening doing assignments so couldn't text me according to his sister.

    I know it is a silly issue compared to other people's posts in here but it's really annoying me not knowing what he means and that he is angry with me and that I can't figure out why.

    Any guesses on how I could be talking to him as if he is a woman? And did/does anyone spend hours every evening doing college work? It's not just a once off thing with him, he doesn't seem to do anything other than study!

    I don't like silly complicated friendships.

    I don't know what he means but talking to him like he's a woman, seems like an odd thing to say. Personally I don't talk to the women I know any different to the men I know. You mention that he wants to be more then a friend, is it that he thinks you treat him like on of your girlfriends rather then a potential partner (that he's like to be)?

    Aside from that, it sounds to me like you are stressing over texts far to much. I agree that there is no way in hell he would be do busy with college work that he can't text you, it only takes a minute or too to send a text, you can't seriously be working solidly for hours without literally a minute to spare. If he isn't texting you maybe it's because he thinks you text too much and is trying not to reply all of the time to stop you texting too much. I also hate it when people text constantly when they have nothing to say.




  • I study more or less every waking hour, no exaggeration. I came into the library this morning at 9am and I'll be here until it closes at 10.30, going to a couple of (obligatory) meetings in the evening. I don't really have any 'free' time right now. I'd still send texts/messages to people I cared about though.

    He's obviously ignoring you. If you want to talk to him, call him.

    Or maybe don't. He wants to be more than friends, you don't. Let him off before it gets even more complicated.
