I don't see my girlfriend as often anymore since I started working this summer so that I can have money when I go back to school. So I call her one night hoping to have a nice conversation but she tells me to call her back because her T.V show is on. This has happened on more than one occassion and I told her that it makes me feel 2nd to a television set. Am I wrong for feeling upset? Are my feelings justified? How would you guys feel if your boyfriend or girlfriend did this?

You have every right to be upset! She's putting you at number two on her list and the T.V. comes first. Sit her down and tell her how you feel. Be honest and don't be afraid to tell the truth. She doesn't look like a very good girlfriend to me. If she chooses not to listen to you and puts the T.V. first, I would end it with her. She needs to get her priorities straight and she needs to keep in mind that T.V. WILL NOT GO ANYWHERE!!! You deserve to be with someone who would love to spend time with you. If I were in the same situation, I would talk to my boyfriend about it. If he doesn't listen to me, I would break up with him and be with someone who is worthy of my time and company.

Yes your feelings are justified.She may tel you that so that you will stop calling her.She may be playing games to see what you'll do.What ever the case is you have your own responsibilities to yourself.Your job and going back to school.Yes i would feel hurt,but i would look at all the possibilities for making new friends at work and at school.It 's normal to have that kind of pain in your heart,but are you going to let it consume your thoughts,your life?Get on with what you know you need to do.

Well, my husband does that. All the time...it is very annoying and I wouldn't do that to anyone. I have more respect for other people. Some people do not know how to go about giving consideration to other people. They JUST DON'T KNOW.
If this bothers you now, people just take other people for granted all the time, so I would either move on or talk to her about it.
If things don't improve in another month, I would suggest to hang up on this relationship so you don't end up like I did.

Unless it was survivor, that was wrong. = ) I'm kidding. I would feel the same way! But you have to think, maybe she's not as interested as you are anymore. Time apart in relationships is the biggest eye opener, it will either tear you apart, or it will bring you closer together. It just depends, so, why don't you ask her if maybe thats whats up ... Good luck man.

You would think with you working more she would want to spend your free time either on the phone or in person. Tell her to record the show. Or record a message on her voice mail so you can at least have some sort of conversation with her (voice mail).

Maybe she is interested in a TV Show. That's ok, call her back after it is over. I would watch the program and then be able to discuss it after the show is over. Girls don't like it when the guys are whiny

It's disrespectful ... and rude ! People need to get off the computers, turn the t.v. off, stop playing video games and join the rest of the world.
It's just t.v. it should never come between you and the people you love !

you gf is trying to avoid you via the tv. i wouldnt waste anymore time on her, find someone else to talk to. and when you do see her and she asks you why you dont call her anymore just tell her in a nice way you found someone else who put you first instead of a tv show...

Gee I have friends like that too, and it makes me feel kind of bad but I don't think it should it just means they have an addiction and you can hardly blame them if theres something exciting they can't miss
