My SO and I can't regularly chat/email/text/call during weekdays. It used to bug me. I've cried and I've argued with him about the lack of communication. So I took people's advice to set up a Skype schedule; he agreed to do it every Sunday.
Things went well for a while. Now, the thing is, he never tells me on his own if he won't be available on that Sunday. Usually, I would text him 12 hours before our Skype date to remind him. Only then would he tell me that he can't make it. (And really, I don't understand why I have to remind him if it's supposed to be a regular thing.)
This weekend, as usual, I texted him. I didn't get any reply. But come Sunday night, I still logged on to Skype and waited for him. I've been waiting for an hour already when I thought that I should check his facebook. His latest status, which was posted the previous day, says that he will likely be incommunicado the whole weekend because he has to go somewhere. I was like, what the... Why didn't he tell me? And why did I have to learn through facebook just like any ordinary person? He knows what Sunday means, he should have given me a heads up directly!
Today is Tuesday and I still can't get a hold of him through his cell. I left him a voice mail a few hours ago saying that he should call me asap. Still, no word from him. And it's not as if he is totally incommunicado... His twitter and facebook have recent activities.
I really don't know how I should tell him that I hate it when he does that. I've already told him numerous times how sad and neglected it makes me feel that I am the only one putting an effort at keeping the communication lines open. Every single time, he says he's sorry and he would keep in touch more. But it never happened. I never demanded that we talk every single day; all I ask is to have a quality conversation at least once a week.
