Aibu to overthink WhatsApp?

[tami345]

So last night I was at my boyfriend’s house and his son was coming over but I had a really bad stomach and felt really sick. So I just wanted to go round to my house. This was around 4.40. So I went and I never heard a thing from him.. until 2.30am and he messaged me and said I’m only wakened up on the sofa I fell asleep around 7pm. But whenever I was messaging him on WhatsApp 2 ticks where sending (meaning delivered) but then around midnight I sent a message and only one tick sent? Which usually means you have to be out of your house somewhere cause I know this happens me when I’m at work with awful signal. So I asked him this morning why only one tick sent and he said he doesn’t know? But he couldn’t have been in the house then if only one tick sent. I asked him did his phone die and he said when he woke up it was 8 percent. Can this happen on WhatsApp even when in the house.

Of course it can happen, signal dips in and out all the time for all sorts of reasons.

Why don't you trust him?

Interesting situation to be in. What on earth can be going on?

Sometimes I get one tick messaging dh but I know he’s in the house, signal dips all the time.

I think you are asking the wrong questions. What I mean by that is you clearly don’t trust him. You may have good reason idk 🤷‍♀️.
He could have lost signal, he could have been out cheating on you and turned his phone off incase you called. No way of us knowing.
My point is, in a healthy relationship with a man (or woman) with integrity and value, this type of worry isn’t created for the other person. If you don’t fully trust him the question really should be “why do I value my self so little to put up with being with someone who makes me worry about where they are and what they are doing”. Said in kindness, I used to have a nervous attachment style too when I was younger

Waaaay overthinking it!

Signal often dips out! You’re putting way too much thought into the ticks! Unless you already don’t trust him? We have crap signal and wifi and I’ve often messaged DH and it took ages to go through and my first through is always feckin virgin and their crap signal! Never that DH is up to something nefarious!!

Deffo happens. Happens with my husband all the time. We will be like ehy havnt you checked your phone? We will literally have the phone next to each other to see my message was sent but he hasn't received and he will be receiving other WhatsApp and sending and I will as well but oddly enough ours didn't connect. Usually a call on WhatsApp to him where it rings once seems to do the trick. It doesn't happen often at all maybe a couple times a year but it does happen ! It's rly weird

Your reaction is really over the top. Normal people in good relationships don’t even look at the WhatsApp ticks.

My msg posted twice don't know why 🙈

Crickey. This is too much from you.

Like PP have said WhatsApp ticks have nothing to do with whether you are in your house or not.
It's a drop in the signal network that can happen no matter where you are.

Problem is you obviously don't trust him .

Obviously you don't trust him, otherwise you would not think twice about checking this surely?

So you are thinking that he left the house as lost wifi signal and that is why there was only one tick?

Firstly, does he not have data so would still get messages when out of the wifi area?

Sometimes my phone does that, and it doesn't actually deliver the message until I open up the app. On wifi or data.

There is clearly way more to this than just messages delivering OP.

He lost signal.

Battery died.

Sometimes it just doesn’t deliver for some reason until later.

Why are you automatically assuming he’s lying to you?

Not a normal thing to be worried about.

Bloody hell, you must be hard work.
