Bf hasn't returned my messages in over 24 hours. Would it be stalking him to keep trying him?

I have been seeing a guy for a couple of months, it is not that serious yet mainly due to the fact that he had just started a new job working nights and has had to do a lot of overtime so I only get to see him once a week- at weekends and we do not speak in the week as our schedules are so different.

Anyway i had not seen him for the last 3 weekends as he was working and was pretty much ready to give up, then yesterday he texted and asked if he could come over. I texted back and said I was out but I'd come and meet him. I waited for a reply. Nothing. So then I called and it went to voicemail (after ringing out) it is now over 24hrs later and I have not heard from him have tried calling again but it is still going to voicemail.

I wonder if I am clutching at straws by thinking he could have lost his phone- problem is he has no other way of contacting me he doesn't do email/facebook etc. I know where he works. Would it be stalking if I phoned there in a few days if I still have not heard?

Thanks for your response, your advice seems sensible will just need to pluck up the courage to do it.

Re the email thing he just isn't tech minded- tbh he hates his phone and he doesn't work in an office.

Tisha-1 agony auntI think it would be reasonable to make one call to the workplace, just to say something like, "I was worried when I didn't hear from you and wanted to make sure you were okay. That's all." And then let it go, if there is no medical/emergency explanation. Some people just don't have the nerve to have the "sorry it's not working for me" conversation.

That being said, I wonder if he isn't actually involved with someone and has limited availability for that reason. Sorry to be so suspicious but a guy who doesn't do email? Not being on FB I could understand, but email? Everyone has an email account. Something sounds a bit off to me about this, sorry for being so cynical. Tread cautiously and as I say from time to time to people who are vulnerable, "Cover your heart, Indy!" From that scene in the Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, remember? Cover your heart, protect yourself, okay? Good luck.
