I simply didn’t answer one of his texts because I was graduating college and driving several hours to and from, and also working the next few days.
He goes “is there an issue dude” to which I reply ‘no, I’m just busy’ (something to that effect).
He’s left mid-conversation on me multiple times too, so I told him this and he got instantly defensive, asking me to present proof, to which I said I wasn’t petty like that, nor had the conversations saved anyway.
Isn’t this really strange behavior for a guy friend? Or is it just me…

Edit- great responses. Thank you

  1. Hella strange bro, it’s not like your his gf. I mean unless you are…….

  2. Move forward and encounter new friends. This one is holding you back.

  3. He’s either gay and into you or one of the most weirdly insecure people I’ve ever seen. Normal people don’t act this way.

  4. If this is unusual behavior for him, and he is usually a good friend to you, try to just let it blow over. Everyone has bad days. If this is a pattern, that’s a problem. Also, if he really isn’t a good friend, it’s not worth it.

    If he is in college too, he might be extra stressed from finals, or moving home for the summer, or something. The end of a semester brings change, which is hard for a lot of people.

  5. You youngsters….

    As you get older…that’s past the “Dumb twenties”, you don’t take yourselves so fucking seriously and shit stops. And if it doesn’t, it’s a cue you’ve outgrown the relationship. Until then, tell him to knock it off, he looks like a big baby.

  6. Lmao yeah it’s not that deep. Especially if he’s close to you and knows all the shit you have going on, he would be more than understanding.

  7. I mean. I kinda understand him. Did you really have a trouble finding 2 minutes to answer his messages? I mean, it’s not really that hard. I understand what he is asking for. I’m sorry but I can’t really understand people that can’t find 5 minutes to answer phone call, message or anything like that. Especially in the evening? But you know, that’s me.

    Although his defensive mode was kinda weird, gonna say that. It’s not strange behavior for a “guy friend”. More like for any friend but yeah. Perhaps he’s kinda sensitive to these kind of situations and accusations. You know him longer. Maybe talk with him about that.

  8. My daughters do this to me
    “Why arent you answering my texts?”
    My reply is a message is just that – if you wish to speak to me right now call me. Leaving a message is just that, I’ll get to it on my terms. I dont like my phone pushing me, I have zero notifications, but the ringy function still works. 🤓

  9. Sounds like an insecure dude.

    I would only get annoyed if we had plans or were in the middle of making them and suddenly there was radio silence that left things up in the air long enough that I didn’t know if I should make alternative plans or still plan on following through with whatever we had discussed.

  10. It depends on the context and content of the messages. If they needed your urgent attention then that’s on you. If it was just bs and you forgot about it because you were busy, your buddy needs to tighten up.

  11. This is something you would expect women too fight over not grown ass men. I wouldn’t even respond lol

  12. You’re not his girlfriend. You don’t owe him all of your time and energy. If you don’t want to reply you don’t have to
