how do you feel when the person you love does not contact you?

I've been in this position on and off for a long time, because my man is having to cope with terminal illness. Ok, it's been going on for a few years now, but I appreciate that occasionally, especially when he gets bad news, he needs his space. So, I leave him for a while, with perhaps an e-card, or a little message each day or two to remind him I'm still here for him, waiting. Every time, so far, he's come back, just as loving as ever. Everybody needs their space, and you have to grow to appreciate that and allow them it from time to time. This way, they will respect you all the more, and they'll be back. I never stop loving him during these times.

initiallyfeel little disappointed but slowly adjust with the life

before, i have a boyfriend whose really like that..i'm expecting him to call or even text me, but he don't..i don't know how what i need to think, either i think bad because maybe he's in trouble or he really don't want me to contact..later, i know that he's courting somebody and that's so painful for me..

i have the same feelings as you. when that one doesn't contact me for a long time,i will think that he had forgotten about me,and it proved to be true for myself.we never contact each other from then on. actually,if that one doesn't contact me,i will not contact him as well,i always wait for others to contact me,but never did it myself.
