I think basically, he makes a commitment to call her back, never does, and she has to call him. If she emails him, he doesnt read it untill days later, if she leaves a vociemail he doesn't listen to it. He admitts that he is wrong, but doesn't have reason for repeating this mistake, his excuse is that it just sort of happens, he doesnt know why.
I personally think they have a problem communicating, she has asked what is the best way to communciate, and he has not commnunicated the best way to communicate. He has basically said she is not doing anything wrong, and has admitted he has a problem communicating.
OMG i'm confused as well.
You really gotta see this guy, he is ALWAYS on the phone. Often he gets a call and tells her that so and so has called and it is related to business than he'll step outside and sit around doing nothing for hours at at time, and that prevents him from taking care of his reponsibilities.
For example, he has to mow the lawn on the weekend. Instead of waking up and mowing it, he will wake up, eat breakfest, check the mail, read the newspaper, and sit online looking for deals on electronics. When his wife comes home from work at around 5pm, he makes up excuses as to why the grass has not been cut, and assures her he just got backed up with everything else he had to do and will cut the grass in a moment, and just needs a minute to rest. Than he will get phone calls, and spend the rest of the day chit chatting on the phone. She doesn't nag him either, she just sits quietly and gives him the opportuity to take care of his responsibilities at the end of the day, he says, well honey you saw how I got caught up.
I really feel like he is taking advantage, I dont know how to help her. It seems that they have their good days when he is in a good mood and wants her to take care of him and cook for him, but he seems to create a fight or an issue, when he wants time to himself and he runs off with his friends. She has told him she doesn't mind if he goes out with his friends. She wants him to have a good time and to have a healthy social life. What bothers her is that he lies to go out with his friends. This girl is completely understanding. She has a good nature and is easy to get along with. She does have her bad days like everyone else, but mostly shes very positive and cheerful. I don't understand why he is behaving like this. hmmmmmm
What do you guys think?
