He keeps making me wait for his calls! Should I stay or leave?

Question - (17 July 2010) 5 Answers - (Newest, 1 August 2011)
A female United States age 30-35, *pplemilk writes:

I was waiting for my boyfriend to call one time and he didnt. Before that day, we agreed that he would call me at a certain time which he didnt do. I had to wait for a couple of hours and I ended up calling him. I had to make sure that I double checked the caller ID to make sure that it mustve been a mistake because he had to have called. He didnt call. It's happened a lot of times before and he knows how much I hate it. He keeps on making me promises(without thinking about them) and breaks them eventually, because he makes so many promises that he cant even remember them all. I was feeling empty at that time when I was expecting his call, but I didnt get any. I told him a lot of times how I feel empty and yet he didnt call me because he was stuck at a service and couldnt leave me behind to give me a call, but what happened to having a one minute break? He couldnt call me at an earlier time because he assumed that hed be back from the service and would be able to call me.

He also lied to me one time when I felt bad and he knew it yet he didnt say anything about it but lied to me by not acknowledging it. I was feeling down, all he said was sorry when I let him know.

Any opinions? Should I stay or leave? or am I being too harsh?

My ex was exactly the same way. He would always promise me that he'd call at a certain time and didn't. Then when I called him out on it, he'd apologize and promise me that he'd never do it again.

Has your boyfriend been acting differently around you lately?

This might not apply to you but my ex started being this way after he started liking another girl. Before he and I broke up, that was when I finally pushed him to tell me that he didn't feel like keeping his word because I wasn't so important anymore.

Good luck to you.

For one, it didnt make sense for him to not call me because he hasnt provided me with one good reason why he wasnt able to and second of all, we agreed on it. He should follow through.

Jmtmj agony auntSo you're upset because sometimes he sometimes doesn't call? Sheesh... Cut the guy some slack... If he doesn't call, seriously, what do you lose by simply calling him??

No, I am talking about a service going on during church. Thank you for the help anyway. I forgot to add that hes also sacrificed a lot in the relationship and stayed up late for me to the point he hasnt gotten sleep in the morning so he could stay with me and talk to me. Ive also hurt him a lot with yelling at him and being angry at him almost all the time.

Recently, because of that, hes been resenting me. I make him feel like dirt but in return, hes the type whos indecisive. Its only happened recently that he was late and that was yesterday. He had 3 chances to call me but he didnt because he told me he has never thought of them.

A lot has happened. He's also known to be indecisive with his decisions. He always changes his mind, so same goes with making a promise, he feels that he means it but he forgets overtime what he promised me. I also did that once but hes done that a lot of times more than I can remember.

Any help?

$izZle agony auntIf you ask me you should leave him coz i don't think he is the right choice ... he is disrespecting you by not doing what he told you and then he makes promises to you doesn't keep them ... that's not a nice thing to do ...

and BTW if he is giving an excuse that he was in service he is giving you a load of BULL SH!T you should be smarter than that .... let me tell you why... I work at a 5 star hotel xD even then on a busy day i make sure i make some time to call my friends when i make a commitment to them ... if i can do that working at a 5 star hotel im sure he should have no problem ... besides i don't think his boss would say no if he says i need a 2 min break i need to water the plants(to take a piss ) XD :P sorry if i became too dramatic with the water the plants .... hey cheer up and be happy that you found out about him b4 you made a mistake... you can always earn money meet new ppl but love and respect that is lost can never be earned ...
