Gud Dam Americans ; seriously the craziest most paranoid neurotics on the planet . . .

So my lady's son, he is well over 25 years old . . .

He is out of town and drinking, he is club hopping with his friends while his lady is in college in another town.

So she is out and drinking, he is paranoid she will find another guy and crazy things will happen.

Being out with friends and not hearing each other's cell phone texts or calls, he is thinking the worst.

So every minute he gets more and more frantic, she finally texts him and says she is still out with her group of friends which includes one guy . . .

So he replies and says, " ah kool hope your having a great night ", a normal type response.

She replies some 45 minutes later and he is paranoid about why she has delayed ! ! !

So after he checked that message, two minutes later she asks " are you still out with friends too ? ",

He does not find this call for one hour, young people think everything is instantaneously so she is furiously annoyed at his lack of response ! ! !

After that hour he replies " yes I am still out and about town to "...

She is enraged at him ignoring her instant chat messages and grabs a random guy and gives that other guy a hug and kiss while she flips the selfie camera the finger ' bird ' before sending the hurtful picture.

Her distant man is devastated, all his neuroses collide into the perfect storm of emotions of betrayal and hurt and anger and jealousy ! ! !

So we get a phone call at 3 am in the morning, it is now 2 pm in the afternoon; currently we are noting the drama in the hopes of a major motion picture deal. This is truly epic and worthy of Hollywood . . .

She has since apologized (twice) and explained some things like she thought he was ignoring her, he is angered to the point of silliness. He is demanding more than simple apologies, maybe places; witnesses and time lines of events ! ! !

He has had a lot of alcohol, cell phone batteries are running low and both people have had about 2 hours sleep; meanwhile we have had almost that same lack of sleep, yet we carefully analyse text messages and go through this entire misunderstanding on the most emotional level.

Meanwhile we have had two hours sleep, why must people just expect instant communications and rewards in this crazy new age Y2K modern world. People need to switch off from texts and group convos and actually learn to talk and not expect everyone around them to be instantly available when they want something; the instant gratification of worldwide communication and credit cards spoils us when it fails to meet our expectations. We need to learn to switch off sometimes to declutter or emotional lives.

To truly throw a two year relationship down the toilet over such immature and pathetic irresponsibility is so amazingly juvenile.

Life is full of uncertainty and complicated to just dispose of a relationship over a misunderstanding . . .

Why people cannot learn to accept and forgive instead of just thinking, easier to thrown something known and proven away in the belief " the grass is greener on the other side of the fence " ! ! !

Have we cheapened society and humanity so much that everything is expendable and replaceable in our modern new age disposable society ; shame on us. Not only have we ruined this planet for our nature animals and society we have cheapened life so badly it makes even our own lives far harder; for shame ! ! !

We need to be better at trying to do little things, like recycle, smile, open doors for people and just trying one small nice gesture per day; carefully select your action and aim to make someone elses life a little brighter.

Who knows Karma might even come back and reward you, remember you make your own luck; hopefully by not stepping on other people ! ! !

It's easy to get out of this trap. I leave my phone on silent and rarely reply to anyone immediately, unless we are having an active conversation. I have gained a reputation for never looking at my phone. And often I don't for hours. In this way I am exempt from expectations. I hope the situation resolves itself quickly.

Thank you kind person ! and a double thank you for the great practical easy advice ! ! !

People need to shut off all the electromagnetic radiation devices around them one day per week, phone, microwave, internet and television; just one day of sanity in an insane world . . .

Ha funny story. Werid how the actual thing that the guy was worry about manifested because of spite of him not talking to her more :p

Yes relationships are complicated and unpredictable ! ! !

However saying that it never ceases to amaze me how the young of today can create so much drama and confusion in their lives. as if the world was not weird enough itself to make your own life even stranger and harder it seems to me as self-defeating ! ! ! !

Indeed, I completely agree that there is no need to add extra self defeating qualities of the sort . Why add extra dram and tension wen you can just wait and see what happens?

lol yes i do little but i can still accidentally find enough things and events to irritate and stress me without mass producing more myself : )
