sodapopcharm:
How long since you two last spoke?

sodapopcharm:
I'd give it 24 hours. Is it possible he's thinking "haven't heard from her so she must be fine"? But I totally get your point. I'd want (and expect) my partner to check in if it was something potentially serious. I don't think you're overreacting, but maybe see if there's a good reason he didn't check in right away.

Sooshi:
I'd be livid.

--- Quote from: Still tired on September 30, 2017, 05:02:37 PM ---I wouldn't necessarily rush back home right away, would depend on the situation, how urgent it is vs. how important and/or expensive the trip is. I mean I can't travel like that, if I took a flight anywhere it would be a huge thing and I probably wouldn't be able to just jump on the next flight back. But I would definitely check back in and offer support.

Some people aren't good with that, not to make excuses but they are not mentally prepared to deal with the possibility of losing someone and they shut down. People can have really strange reactions to medical emergencies.

I would give it a chance first and find out if something happened that prevented them from talking to you.

--- End quote ---

agreed. people react differently in different situations. some don't know how to react so they don't react at all. i mean you should know him best and how he is in those situations. is it normal or abnormal for him to act that way you know. i wouldn't automatically jump to conclusions but id bring it up and see what he says. if its really bothering you then you should address it when he comes back.
