My partner and I have had this conversation before, and now I'm just bored.
Context: he just returned from a trip. During the trip we spoke every day, he said he couldn't wait to see me. I felt the same way.
Randomly learned this morning that he was flying home today, not this coming Monday as he'd said. Okay great, you need a ride from airport? "I'll let you know."
He texted early afternoon saying he was home and just woke up from nap. I was in his neighbourhood meeting a client and said I'd finish at 3:30. He said, 'Great, come to mine when you're finished."
I got to his at 3:30 having finished a little early. Texted, rang doorbell, rang his phone. I thought of letting myself in but I knew a friend of his was using his flat in his absence and didn't know if they were still there. I sat in the sun for ten minutes, rang again, concluded he had gone back to sleep, came home.
Cue repeated calls from him now, "I got home at 4, I had to run some errands and my phone isn't working, you mad?" (I hadn't thought to look for his car when I was at his.)
I texted back a little snottily, "You decided not to tell me you were going out so I came home. Enjoy your evening."
He's done this before. Flaked with a lot of apologies afterwards, when a 10-second text in time would've sorted things. It's either supreme flakery or a game. Either is unattractive. I've really gone off him.
