I completely understand those feelings. I ...Hi TRS,<br />I completely understand those feelings. I think it's difficult at the beginning of a relationship, when there's so much excitement and newness, for each week to measure up to the last. Seems like it's natural for the excitement to ebb and flow, but it can feel so discouraging to me when it ebbs in the downward direction! <br /><br />Since it's only been 3 weeks, I agree with Genevra and wouldn't look at it as a red flag. He might be very focused on his family while he's there and it may not be a reflection of his feelings for you at all that he hasn't contacted. It's such a new thing after just a few weeks.<br /><br />Anyway, just wanted to reassure you that others of us understand! Hope you hear from him real soon, and I'm sure you will. <br /><br />MelissaMelissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13033665660045508472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8987305.post-36721849733655427062010-04-14T22:09:24.390-06:002010-04-14T22:09:24.390-06:00Once again I just loved reading this post and the ...Once again I just loved reading this post and the last paragraph in particular. I started enjoying dating and budding romantic relationships a lot more, when I stopped putting so many expectations on what someone did or didn't do. I'm starting to realize, amazingly enough, that the world doesn't rotate around me and that peoples actions or lack of actions are not always about me, even in romantic relationships. :)<br /><br />Getting to know someone in the beginning and the twitterpaited feeling that comes along with someone that you are really attracted to, is one of the best feelings in the world. It can also quickly turn out to be the worst feeling, when the object of your affection starts being human and doesn't act the way or do what you were expecting. It's so hard to stay objective during those times.<br /><br />With that said, I don't think it is a red flag, little or otherwise, that he hasn't been in contact with you while he was away. But only because I'm the same way, when I am traveling,or when life gets insanely busy. I tend to be very single focused in those cases. If I have free time, I might make contact more. If I'm pretty busy and distracted, I don't.<br /><br />Really until you get to know him better and spend more time with him, you don't know if his lack of communication in that situation is a reflection of you or not. Which it sounds like you realize and is why you are a little less twitterpaited and not obsessing about it, and instead continuing to live your life.<br /><br />Go TRS!Genevrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03533225261228782347noreply@blogger.com
