18/f. I just called my boyfriend because I am freaking out about school work and I need some support. And he sends me to voicemail! I get a text from him five minutes later telling me that he will give me a call later because he is hanging out with his friend Jenny. Wtf?! Couldn't he have at least answered the phone and tell me that instead of ignoring it?! Would any of you like that? Am I making too much out of this?
Additional info, added Monday October 13 2008, 11:12 pm: I just went on MySpace and it said that he is on-line. What the hell? I literally just called him five minutes before I asked this question..

Alternating caps, gibberish, several x's as if thats somehow become a good idea.
Nothing like relationship advice from a 15 year old, right?
Anyway, you shouldn't be freaking out, but I'd be miffed. I only send people to voicemail when I am actively doing something, and usually I will explain it in a text at first opportunity.
You know, "Driving with friends, can't talk" or "Playing video game, can't talk". Even if its a simple explanation, its courtesy to give one.
Talk to him about it. I mean, he did give you an explanation, but "hanging out with a friend" isnt a great one. It doesn't sound like he was physically occupied and couldn't spare a hand to hold the phone, it sounded like he just didn't want to talk to you in front of her, and thats just a little odd to me.
As a guy, I wouldn't hesitate to answer a call if I'm hanging out with a girl I'm friends with. Talk to him, ask him why he couldn't answer for hanging out with a friend. Don't be confrontational about it, just seek information.
You are and aren't making too much about it. It could be that he just didn't want to be rude and be on the phone (given you were upset, it can be rude/awkward to talk to you for extended periods of time with a friend in the room). If you usually call him upset about things every so often, this is a distinct possibility.
In that case, just tell him you'd appreciate it if he only sends you to voicemail when he physically can't afford to pick up the phone, and otherwise if hes busy he can just answer and say he's with a friend and doesn't want to sit on the phone and be rude.

xObEaChbAbEoX answered Tuesday October 14 2008, 5:41 pm: He could be at his buddies house checking his myspace maybe? But to be perfectly honest, it must be stressful about your work/school but in my past experience, guys aren't going to want to hear how stressed out you are, becasue then he is going to think you need attention and see you more of a baby. In a way I think you are over-reacting, you didnt specify how long you guys have been going out, but it takes a long time for guys to ditch their friends for their girl. Just wait for him to give you a call, because if you call him, he will see you as clingy.
There is a really good book out there its called "Why Men Love Bitches" and it tells you how to react to situations similar to yours.
Hope I helped [ xObEaChbAbEoX's advice column | Ask xObEaChbAbEoX A Question ]
