am i crazy for wanting my boyfriend to call me before bed to say goodnight?

Question

we live an hour apart. i drive to his house all the time. we've been dating for over a year. he comes to my hosue too but i live with my parents so its not as fun. anyway, thats just some background. he doesn't consistently call me before bed b/c i think he gets tied up shopping or doing nba draft picks online. and he just sometimes forgets all -together to call me. it makes me mad and we argue about it. last night he didn't call me to say goodnight, then didn't call until 2pm the next day. (actually not called...text). i was annoyed and ignored him. this sucks

Answer 1

yes

Answer 2

Why would you be mad that he didn't call you all the damn time? Yeah you're crazy. I would be careful because that's how all my past relationships ended. Stop expecting...and you will get the unexpected. Like kisses on the back without being asked, maybe even a ring, then a baby. If the guy isn't ready to say good night every night have a mature conversation about it. or you can back into it by noticing the small things he does. Say "Aww thank you for doing _______" ( Fill in the blank) , and aknowledge something he has done , so he will keep doing it. Arguing wit h a guy about not calling you is the quickest way for him to not call you anymore. Don't ask for a man to call, text, or complain about him not doing what you want him to do. You willsc

Answer 3

You sound a little obsessive, insecure and very very young. If you keep going this way he will start to feel hemmed in and move on. Relax! He doesn't need to be on the phone every night just to say goodnight. He still loves you even if he doesn't call every minute of every day.

Answer 4

You're being a tad bit too controlling. It's one thing if he just drove home and calls you to tell you he made it okay. But to require him to call you every night before bed is not healthy. It's nice to hear from him, but you should give him a break and not get upset. Easier said than done, I know, but a situation like this shouldn't make or break your relationship.

Answer 5

no my boyfriend calls me before he goes to work and when he gets home (he works late) before he goes to bed just to say goodnight and I love you and find out how my day was. You're not crazy, find a guy who really cares about you.

Answer 6

that's a bit TOO demanding/controlling to my taste, if he wants to call and say goodnight, then good, but sometimes they DO get tied up doing something and just don't get the chance, or maybe he just didnt want to call to late because of your parents, you should try asking him why he didn't call instead of getting mad before knowing what happend

Answer 7

yes you are crazy, how old are you? if you are old enough to be in a "real" relationship then you need to start acting like it. it does not mean he does not care about you because he does not call, things happen, people get busy, maybe his other girl would not leave and he could not call, or he was in the hospital being treated for herpes or something, come on give the guy a break

Answer 8

What's wrong with you calling him to say goodnight, if it's that important to you? Why is it that important? You sound a little insecure to me and your issue sounds a little trivial.

Answer 9

I think he should call and say goodnight it only takes two minutes tell him if he does not you have a girl friend instend
of a boy friend and I will call and say goodnight to you every night

Answer 10

I think that there are more important things in a relationship than worrying about a "good night" call. Unless you are one of those people who are so insecure, that you can't function unless you keep in 24 hour contact with your partner

Answer 11

Do you know why he didn't, maybe he had a good reason and no that is not crazy at all it just means you miss him
