I'm wondering if anyone here likes to check up on their partners. I don't mean in the sense of if they're cheating or anything. I mean just to make sure they're ok. Tonight, my boyfriend had to take a train to Manhatton and then back to Astoria. He could've driven but it was better for parking. We talked twice (the second time was originally for good night) but I still asked him to call me back once he got home. Kind of silly I guess, but I feel safer knowing he's ok. Am I the only one like that?
no, you're not. even when I've been out with my best friend and she's on her way home, I always have her call or text me when she gets home. it's what you do when you care about someone. whether it be a friend or someone you love.
may X may be my X, but she knows me too well, she knows that I worry about her like none other, she'll call, or text, even though I can't read those, but of course that isn't weird.
nope, it's not weird. I even have my family call me when their out alone at night and walking home from town etc. But, checking up on your partner about cheating...that's a totally different story.
it's not weird. if you care about a person, partner, friend, or family, then your going to always worry about them when they are somewhere. for example, if my mother goes to my aunt's house, she always calls to let us kno she got their safely, and she calls my aunt when she gets home. also, when my parents go to my brother's, they always call him and say they're on their way, and he knows how long it takes them to get their. then when they get their, they call me and my sister, so we kno they got their safely.
Cool. Well, he doesn't mind or anything. I was just curious. I kind of picked it up from my mother, who always calls me and makes me call her when I'm out.
Nah, I use to check up on X when we were together, it shows that you care when you do those sort've things, so you ain't the only one.
no it's actually very normal, and very nice and caring imo.
hey no this is definitely not wrong. whenever I take greyhound back to orlando from my mom's she always makes me call when I get home. or if I get off work late and take a cab tony my relief night operator even says ok girl call me when you get home. its being nice and caring smiles.
No, checking up on your partner for safety reasons isn't weird. I mean, if they were out and you were calling incessantly, yeah, that would get overbearing. But when my boyfriend is out late at night and taking public transit home, I will call him just to make sure he's all right, or ask that he calls me at least once so I know he's okay. When I'm out, particularly at night, he does the same thing with me, so it goes both ways.
I get worried when my husband goes out to do something and he takes too long to come back. I don't know why I do it, I just do, and I usually end up calling to see if he's ok. He just got accepted at Guide Dogs Of The Desert, and I'm a little nervous. Guess it's normal.
Checking up on th partner is great, sweet, caring, and just makes you feel good to know when they're safe
