Boyfriends on holiday and not speaking ...aibu here to think he should be keeping in touch?

[pinttyandcrisp]

My boyfriend went on holiday on Sunday for two weeks.
He is back a week on Sunday.
He has gone with his daughter,his parents,brother and his family.
He hasn't spoke since he's been away.
We normally speak daily.
He text me Sunday before he left in the airport then he sent me a snapchat when he got to his hotel.
He snapchatted me earlier him around the pool and with a pint.
Then he said it was hot ...literally that's it
"It's hot"
I haven't messaged him as he is on holiday with his family and don't want to pester him but at the same time ...I hate no contact.
A few snaps here and there is rubbish.
I replied to his last snap saying it's raining here ...depressing.
Opened it and no reply
Aibu to be annoyed here?
The lack of effort

I dont even take my phone when I'm on holiday
I go away once a year on my own and do not want to be disturbed.
Otherwise it's the same as being at home

For god's sake stop counting how many messages and checking when they were sent/read/received and when he was typing things.

"Why are people so mean on here?

I would expect my boyfriend to miss me and be in touch"

He has been in touch, in fact it's the OP that hasn't sent any messages.

He might well be sitting by the pool wondering why OP isn't messaging him, wondering if she misses him...

Have been here OP and have the tshirt lol

When i had been seeing OH for just a few months, he'd go on a family holiday and there would be barely any contact, despite multiple texting/calling daily normally. From my point of view i missed him dreadfully as I was still daily with day to day life and challenges, whereas he was on holiday, and not only on holiday, but sharing time and making memories with his kids. They were the priority while he was away, not me, and once that 'clicked' with me, it kinda made the missing him bit easier. It was just their dedicated bonding time- no distractions or jobs or chores or homework, just a relaxed dad and kids.
Each year, communication got a little bit more frequent- calls, whats app pics etc, as i was becoming more part of the family and more of a priority.
I'd imagine it will be the same with you. Let him enjoy his family time. He will miss you too, and you can both appreciate each other more when he returns :)

At a lot of these all inclusive resorts you can only access WiFi in reception area so he probably won't have access.

I think @baileys6904 has it absolutely bang on.

So he messaging and touching.

He clearly has bad phone signal

You wont message him unless he does first.

Yet you think he is the issue?

Jesus Christ - you need to back down. You say you’re not needy - you are. Leave the man in some peace and stop wondering when if how he should message you - you’ve been dating for 2 months!!!

You are being so ridiculous. He's on holiday with his daughter and family, he's allowed to give the phone a break and actually enjoy his holiday.

I assure you, you will survive this.

Once he is back, you'll more than likely find your communications level resume. But you seriously need to also accept that this may not always be the case - life happens.

You've only been together a few months - relax. This is hardly some husband/wife, long term committed relationship where things would be different.

I would not keep someone I've only been dating for a few months updated on my holiday. I would want to enjoy it. Furthermore, if he is with his daughter, let him have the quality time. It could look terrible if he gets distracted in conversation with you.

Chill.

But OP, you've said that the EE phone signal where he is is rubbish.

I'm not sure what you expect, really.
