A situation between a boyfriend and his girlfriend. Both in their offices, they are online. So they can exchange messages. The guy often go out from work earlier than the girl. They are not supposed to meet that day. Before the guy leave the office, she sent a message to his girlfriend saying that he was going home. He didn't received a reply, the girl might be busy. So when the guy arrived home, since he was tired and actually got only a few hours of sleep the previous night, he immediately go to bed, with a purpose of just lying down a bit to have a little rest, but unfortunately, he fell asleep. He woke up late night already, he took a shower and ate his dinner. Then the misunderstanding between him and his girlfriend started, even the guy explain the girl the real story, the girl seemed not satisfied, and even thinking that the guy went somewhere. Yes, the guy understood that the girl got worried, but do he deserved a coldness from his girlfriend? Do you think this issue worth to start an argument? What are your thoughts about this. I would be glad to hear from you. Have a nice day! Happy myLotting!

UUHHHEEM, okay, the guy forget to tell his girlfriend that he is tired and want to go to bed. After he already send her a message that he is going home. Forgot the second message, did we? Now, it really is not worth it to argue about it. There is suppose to be trust, to prevent the girl from thinking that the guy went out. Next time, the guy should just make sure he send another message and make sure he gets a reply. Or better yet, just phone her. So much easier, don't you think?

Hi saph! Yes, the guy forgot to at least let the girl know that he's already home, that's his fault, he made her worry. But for the girl, since the guy already explained to her what's really happened, she should stop worrying and trust her boyfriend. Well I think this kind of situation is not really a big issue and it's not really worth to have a argument. Thank you for your response. Happy myLotting!

It should not be a source of conflict. Anyway, girls are like that.

Well, I guess there is some mistrust between this guy and his girlfriend and if she doesn't trust him to tell the truth in this matter, then they have a problem in their relationship. For a relationship to be successful there just has to be trust, otherwise suspicion and mistrust will make them both very miserable. They both need to sit down and talk about whether or not to continue with this relationship in such circumstances. If they do want to stay together, then they will need to address these problems before they get even worse. Derek

Hi derek! Yes, trust is really important in a relationship. Maybe the girl just really got worried but I'm sure they will reconcile soon. Coz for me it's not really a big issue to start an argument with. They just need to talk about it. Thank you for your response. Happy myLotting!

If I'm in the girl situation, I'll be upset too because I was expecting to meet my boyfriend that day. But still try to understand his reason why he didn't came. I won't be that cold to my boyfriend. I will forgive him, and hope that it won't happen again.
In the situation you stated, maybe the girl experience being fooled by his boyfriend or with her past relationship. I think she should think it over why it happened. Check her phone if her boyfriend really called or text him. If the boyfriend is sincere and kind enough to understand her girlfriend, I think he don't deserve this cold treatment. They should give time and another chance to their relationship.

Hi anne! They are not supposed to meet each other that day so that's why the guy went home directly. Well, it's just a little misunderstanding between them and a conversation with open hearts and minds will solve the issue. Thank you for your response. Happy myLotting!

It should not be a source of argument but that's the nature of girls, they are very hard to please. They are very hard understand. I also experience the same thing with my girlfriend.

For sure this is your story hahahaha. For me this is just a shallow source of argument. I will not be angry with my boyfriend if he fallen asleep and forgot to text me. But if he promised that he will text me like we have to meet on that day and he did not arrive because he fell a sleep then I will be hurt. If he really would want to take a rest that day he can text me instead. And why this guy not text her girlfriend that he was sleepy that time so that there is no argument started in the first place. For sure now you already patch things up because I already late to read this discussion of yours.

I think the girl do not trust her boyfriend. yes, she got worried but seeing her boyfriend okay and hearing his story should shut the negative thoughts up.. I think there was some things in the past that made her not trusting her boyfriend..

I definitely don't think that this is a situation that is worth starting an argument over. The fact that the boy was able to explain the situation should be enough for the female. And, I can at least attest for myself that knowing that my boyfriend was okay would be quite enough for me. I wouldn't really need any explanation than that. However, if there is that much jealousyin that relationship, then it might not be meant to last.

well for me?yes he deserved a coldness treatment from his girlfriend..you can't blame the girl for that...but this issue is not worth to start an argument because the guy already explain what really happen.,then it's up to the girl if he will going to forgive the guy.,
most of the time it also happen to us with my boyfriend.,specially now that we are far from each other because of our work... but i never allowed it to make our relationship break or week.,i always say sorry to him and and he also to me.,we love each other that much so we don't want to lose what we have started...we have a lot of plans and goals for our future so we need to understand each other.,

I think the girl shouldn't be angry because he already told his girlfriend that he was going home already and in fact, the girl didn't reply immediately so the boy thought that she was busy so rather to wait for the reply he went home since he was so tired. Well if the girl isn't satisfied to the boys explanation, then what those the girl really want since the boy already told her the whole story? I think the girl does not trust her boyfriend enough cause even a small situation like this could end their relationship. And what if they are already married and with the same situation like this, how will it end up to?

There seem to be a number of problems here - the first being a presumption that the man was in the wrong - bear in mind: a) the couple were not supposed to meet that night, and b) he told her he was going home. There should be no need for further advice from him about what he was doing. If she was so worried about what he was doing, why didn't she check her eMail and / or phone him? Why should he have to call her when he got home? The other problems are (as mentuioned by others) Trust and Communication. If she doesn't trust him whenever she doesn't know where he is, and expects him to tell her where he is whenever he is not with her,and, in this situation, doesn't believe him when he does tell her the facts, (she could have verified it in part by checking her eMail or however he told her he was going home), I think the relationship is probably doomed. He has to ensure that she realizes he is an adult and worthy of her trust unless and until she has concrete evidence that he not trustworthy. If she cannot act as an adult in an adult relationship now, imagine what it would be like if they married?

Well I am sure the girlfriend's mind was buzzing with thoughts of her boyfriend cheating on her. She wasn't sure what to think, and didn't know that he had just not had a good night's sleep the previous night. Honestly you would think that'd be something he'd tell his girlfriend but he either hadn't thought of it, thinking he'd be able to go to bed at his normal time, or he had thought he'd mentioned it already.
The female, maybe she' overreacting a little bit, then again I can't blame her.

Small arguments are expected in such situations. I guess even the guy would have argued had it been the other way round. But these things are not to be made fuss of. So if the guy is explaining, the gal should believe me. After all trust is the base of all relations. And the guy had even left the note while he was leaving.
