Boyfriend - confusion

I don't know if I'm just being paranoid but my boyfriend has gone to Spain for a few days to see friends, told me he would miss me etc and to text him. We texted each other a few times yesterday, he said he wished I was there and he was 'kind of missing me' (only kind of?) I texted him with a couple of questions late last night and he hasn't replied. I don't think I said anything to annoy him, he seemed fine before that. Am I just being paranoid? He might well have run out of credit, was out with his friends, lost his phone or something?! It's just a bit strange since he always replies right away.

you're just being paranoid... lay off and stop being obsessive, and don't worry about it! :p: Will all be fine!

He might just have run out of credit...texts to and from different countries cost a fortune!

You texted him late at night perhaps he was drunk or asleep?

I agree. Doesn't seem anything to worry about.

I know I'm probably worrying over nothing. He just has a tendancy to be a bit 'hot and cold' sometimes, he seems to think I'm not as into him as he is into me, but we were doing really well before he left so I thought everything was great, plus he was texting yesterday. Now I'm wondering if he's OK!

Let him have some fun with his mates and stop being the clingy girlfriend.

I'm not clingy at ALL. In fact he worries I'm not that into him because I'm not always texting and don't always want to come with him on nights out. He said he'd really like to hear from me which is why I texted in the first place!

Don't forget that in spain, they're an hour ahead, so he might have fallen asleep!

Texts do cost a lot from other countries. Panic not, all will be fine. Try and keep yourself occupied to take your mind off him. That's what I'm trying to do with all my worries at the minute! If anything had happened to him, I'm sure you'd have heard by now. As they say 'no news is good news.'

sometimes texts take ages to get to phones abroad-when i was in germany it took me over a day to receive messages from friends. so yeah i wouldnt worry, it doesnt sound like hes purposefully ignoring you and be thankful he thinks UR not too into HIM and not that HES not too into YOU..

What tends to happen in these situations is a story emerges in our own heads which is probably so far from the truth.

Try rewriting the story that you are making up. Believe that there is a totally rational explanation. Think of every explanation you can and focus on them instead of the negative ones you are thinking of.

He loves you so smile.
