My BF is away on hols with his daughter and her kids. He left on Monday evening last week and is due back next week. The thing I haven't heard from him since he left, no calls, no texts, no emails ... Should I be worried?

It really depends on how normal this is for you. My DH would always text as soon as he arrived and many times through out the trip so I would be hugely worried but maybe your BF is just absorbing himself in life with his daughter and grandkids and assumes you'll catch up when he's back.

If you normally talk loads that's a bit weird. Have you tried to contact him or are you waiting for him to get in touch first?

Did he pack his phone charger?

Mermaidkisses · 11/06/2018 13:14

That's a thought!! He is in Rhodes so I guess he could be having wifi issues as well .... I am worrying over nothing aren't I lol
Guess I'm just missing him!! :)

Based on my experience of DH its most likely to be technology issues rather than anything more dramatic. DH had a problem with signal in one place so I could her a ringing tone but he could hear nothing.

I think if anything serious had happened you would have known about it by now. Probably just network problems or lack of charger. My partner once did this for a weekend, he was in a place where he couldn't get a signal and it didn't even dawn on him that he could have used a call box to get in touch. Hope you hear something soon.

My friend's DP took his phone when we all went to Mexico, and didn't switch it back on until we all got back to the UK. We had a WhatsApp group out there for meeting for dinner, we're by the pool when you get back, thinking of going out to xyz tomorrow if anyone wants to come etc and he was convinced it was going to cost us a fortune, even though we were all on the resort WiFi no data switched on. This man is not even 40 yet. Maybe he's like that OP?

He only uses email while he's away as he is convinced whatsapp and texts cost money!! Perhaps its signal issues ... Oh well he will message when he can lol :0) x
