I am not going to give you any excuses about him. I would not want anyone giving me excuses about my husband. If I am contacting him and I believe he is able to answer his cell phone and he doesn't, then I want to know why. I have a right to know why.

Yes, marcia, I believe, I agree with Rozie, there is no excuse for being insensitive to your needs and communication, that is the least he could do, is be responsive! But i would be willing to hear any reasoning behind it, and listen to it before expressing any anger!

I've had experience with this in the past. But I don't have a S/O or a husband, so I don't have to worry with these things. So, why does it piss you off? Is he at work during the time that you called? Do you fear he is doing something he shouldn't be doing? Sorry if you have answered these questions in other discussions, but I am responding through my e-mail. Were you ever able to reach him? Did you leave him voicemail so that he could return your call. I know there are times, that my cell phone don't ring, and then I will get a voicemail message. That is because at the moment that person was calling me, I didn't have signal to receive the call. Could this have happened in this situation?

I won't stick up for him.......... Do you want me to come and take care of your light work for you? You want me to come and kick his A$$, I will do it too. Who the hell does he think he is, having his phone go to voice mail when you are trying to call him. How dare he.

Yes. It makes me very mad. that is why we have cell phones so we can get hold of each other in case of an emergency or for an easy contact if we should need something ro need to talk. There is no excuse to have the voice mail on. He can't even check a voice mail with these cheap prepaid phones we have.

I actually couldnt agree more. I hate it when im trying to get in touch with someone like a friend or a family memeber and they wont pick up their cell. The thing is that i know they have cell phone and that theyre either ignoring it or they forgot it somewhere. Ninie time out of ten when i call it from home i hear it ringing. I dont know why people would pay for cell phones if they arent going to use them.

I understand they can't get to it sometimes, but when I keep on calling, and he don't answer it make me furious.

When I lived in the city with my now ex I used to get the same way. If only I could make excuses. I was always worried when he didn't answer the phone and by the time he got home I was so p***ed off that I didn't speak to him after I got done yelling. You never know if something happened or not when this kind of stuff goes on.

When I was married, I've had that sort of thing happen a lot,and I was ticked too. Can't blame you a bit for being steamed. If you ask me there's no excuse for it, especially if it's not the first time. (What if there had been an emergency?!) Even if you're in a hospital you can set it to vibrate so you can see your incoming call and get back to somebody. It's too bad his thoughtless action is raising your blood pressure! Hugs...Joy

i know just how you feel and my man does have good excuses for him not answering his phone or turning it off but that dosen't stop me from getting irritated and wondering why its usually cleared up tho when we do talk. maybe your hubby is just busy and doesn't want to be disturbed by calls of any kind.

My husband and I both have cells, and most of the time I can't reach him because he forgets to take it with him. It is really aggravating, especially when I really need to talk to him.

I feel the same way when I'm trying to get in touch with anyone with a cell phone...mainly my kids. They have voice mail but never bother to check it so I don't bother leaving messages any more. When my brother and I were on speaking terms he was the same way. Why do people bother if their not going to answer the phone or listen to their voice mail...I don't get it!

My partner often forgets to take his with him! Annoys me no end, but men don't think the same way us women do!

Nope, no excuses. The almighty cell phone. Able to reach any one with the push of "pound". :) I do the same thing. I turn my cell down all the way at work. Usually just to vibrate, but sometimes I go too far. Like today. My wife was trying to get a hold of me...to no avail. So what do you do? not much. You just keep on going. I am in an office so if it was an emergency then I can still be reached. That may be a little different with you.

NO excuses from me. This just happened to me today. I was so MAD! Our austic son had a complete break down at school. I was just leaving for a big meeting and had to grab him a change of clothes. When I got to school he was outside standing on a hill. I tried to get him inside and the breakdown turned nasty. I was trying to call my husband for help. My cell phone went flying (a teacher picked it up for me), so did my blue tooth. My son left the school grounds and they were threatening to call the police. I was so frazzled. After I caught up to him, he was crying by then, I grabbed his hand and walked him to the nurses office and got him calmed down. During this time I tried calling my husband 12 times - nine on his cell and three at school (he is a teacher). I could not get through. The phone would ring, but he would not pick up. I was so mad at him. The nurse tried calling too. Finally the assistant principal called and pulled some clout to get though to him. I was so mad! I think I said that already. By the time he called me I had everything in control. Well, except my temper at him. lol. poor guy I hung up on him. His excuse - there was no flashing light on his phone that showed that anyone called at school. Nor did he feel the phone vibrating in his pocket. Gee, looking back at this post, maybe I'm still a little steamed.

Ugh I hate it when my parents dont answer their cell phones, and they never do. My mom always puts it on vibrate then puts it in her purse and doesnt feel it, and then my dad just always forgets his phone at home.
