Question - (7 March 2012) 3 Answers - (Newest, 7 March 2012)
A female United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

Should i be mad at my boyfriend about this ?. We were supposed to meet up today. I sent him a text message , and ten minutes later, he seen me a message on facebook saying that we would have to write to each other on facebook, and not on our phones, and he said he is in a mess at the moment, and asked if we could meet tomorrow. He also said that he loves me, and that nothing has changed. This isn't the first time he has said that he has to keep intouch through facebook, and not on mobile phones. He is usually reliable with meeting though and sending messages. I am annoyed though, and feel wary with him saying that we cant use our phones, and with him saying he is in a mess. Should i write back to him or not, and should i still meet him ?. Would you be angry if this happened to you ?. I tried calling his phone as well, because i didnt' get a reply to the text message i sent to him. That was before i saw his message on facebook. It rang, but there was no answer. If his phone was ringing,i don't see why he couldn't have picked it up ?. He's unemployed, and is bipolar.

Well sounds like if he is bipolar that is a red flag right there. I have a bipolar friend and she is very controling and everything has to be on her terms or else I don't get a responce. Decide if this is a good fit for you to continue with and if not move on.

Perhaps he has financial difficulties that he is too embarrassed to discuss with you, hence why he can't texted and only messaged you on FB.

You say he is unemployed and bipolar, so I do believe that he is possibly struggling financially as well as emotionally.

Please put your feelings to one side in this instance and focus on his needs. I think he would probably prefer some support from you right now and may just open up to you.

So_Very_Confused agony auntBig RED FLAG to me.

My partner has complete access to my phone (he has access to anything he asks for including my FB) but he never would even ASK to see facebook while he thinks nothing of reading messages on my phone.

Sounds like he's hiding something to me.
