Getting cold shoulder from bf

    Guys honest opinion

    Love my bf of two years to bits, but he can be sometimes very strong headed and stubborn. We usually text a god bit during the day but today I was run off my feet in work and was going somewhere after he knew about and was rushing there. I text him at 12 noon then rang him about 7 times at 6pm. Hes thick with me now because apparantly I could of just sent him a text or something and that he'd barely heard from me all day.

    Im bulling at how pathetics hes being, if I stand my ground it will turn into a huge arguement.

    What to do? Is it just me or is he being ridiculious?

    Cheers

    In my personal opinion, he's being OTT in giving you the cold shoulder considering you text him at midday and then rang him this evening, so you did contact him.

    If you hadn't contacted him at all then I could understand him being annoyed etc, but as you did contact him, I really don't think he has anything to be annoyed about.

    I'm guessing he is the one who will turn it into an argument if you stand your ground?

    If I had a partner who was behaving like your boyfriend I'd rapidly tell him to grow up and cop on.

    Presumably he knew you were busy in work? And he knew you were going somewhere after work he could (should, in my opinion) be more understanding.

    Is he needy or demanding OP?

    Aghhh kind of depends on the context. I had a girlfriend that I'd text pretty often and she'd claim she was too busy to reply sometimes when in actual fact it was always when I asked a question, she wanted to duck and then it was something I couldn't follow through with because she wouldn't reply on time. I always felt even when busy it takes 30 seconds to text saying, I'm really busy, can we talk about this later?

    I thought maybe I was being too demanding but being in another relationship has shown me the truth.

    Hold on.

    You rang him 7 times and he didn't answer?

    I'd be more annoyed with him if he didn't answer because he was in a mood. You made an effort and he didn't.

    Can I ask just what was stopping him from contacting you during the day? All he needed to do was text and ask if you were busy. He's being totally ridiculous IMO, leave him off to sulk, and if he causes an argument then all the better-he'll learn that your not a pushover, and he won't try the same thing twice.

    Now if it was midnight to 7 am, I'd be a bit odd, but this??? He should cop on.

    Is he a bit controlling?
