Am I selfish or what?

-Long distance relationship

-He makes excuse that he "can't talk" -poker night -drinking (work is understandable)

-I get upset

-I call 100 times He doesn't answer

-He doesn't call back or answer for SEVERAL DAYS

-In the meantime I am wrecked inside and feel ignored and things escalate

-Once our convo dropped and his phone died-broke but I thought he was mad

I didn't hear from him for 4 DAYS-he has face book and didn't even think to write me.

I need him to call and talk to me every day, I need him to call me back, and I need him to not say that he "can't talk" because he is going to be playing poker or hanging with friends or drinking. I think he can talk for 5 minutes we live 95 miles away and don't get to see each other.

Am I being selfish? Or is he being selfish?

I'm just dying inside, feeling like this, I think I need to cut myself off from communicating with him, which won't be a problem-my phone broke. Merry Christmas Right!

P/s I just graduated college this isn't some h.s teen drama.

Update:

He says he loves me and wants to marry me but I guess that's his little way of promising just enough without really having to try!

I'm wondering if we lived in the same city, if things would be good or if I should look for jobs in a different state?

Update 2:

I've surpassed him in maturity level. He actually was driving without a license for unpaid fines and got pulled over, good thing he had money to pay those fines or he would have landed in jail. Apparently that's why I didn't get a birthday present. Sure that makes sense to me.

    Ohh, the drama !! The angst !

    Just because you graduated college doesn't mean that you've grown up any since high school, because you sure sound like you're still back there in study hall passing notes or something.

    Ok, it's perspective time ...

    You are nowhere near ready to get married and start a life with a man. Not if you are this needy, whiny and clingy to someone who isn't even in the same area code ! From 95 miles away, you've got him under your thumb, woman !

    This boy/man you're with (but not really) isn't behaving like a guy who's in love and who can't wait to marry you and start a life. If he can go for 4 days and not even write to you an email or facebook thing, what does that tell you? OPEN your EYES !

    You're both being selfish. You're being whiny and overbearing, and he's being passive aggressive, when he should just tell you to back off and leave him alone for 5 minutes.

    Have you ever lived in the same place as him, seen him on a regular basis and spent more than a day in the same room with him yet? It sounds like you don't really know each other yet. I think you're too young to base your life decisions on anything a guy does. You need to live YOUR life, and when the right guy comes along, you won't need to call him 100 times, because he'll be the one doing the calling.

    You may have just graduated college but you are exhibiting some juvenile behavior. You say "I need" an awful lot but that is no doubt because you are needy. At your age don't you realize men HATE clingy, needy, constantly calling women? You have to take a good look at what you really Need from a man and how you can downsize it. I'll tell you one thing, he must be so damn glad he's 95 miles away. Look at this; you said you call 100 times(100TIMES) and he doesn't return it.IT is no wonder! You are suffocating him DAILY!! Why not take a break for a week (you can do it!!!!) and he might (might) just call. Or not.

    well, i really think that if u live like 95 miles away it IS hard to keep in touch. i dont think that ur being selfish, i dont think he is being selfish either. i just think that u need to give him some space, but not too much space to get detached from u, (unless u want to at sum point). i really hope i helped. =]

    they are delicate and function worry controlling their thoughts, yet some do take care of it nicely. I doubt they are egocentric yet they could be possessive and obsessed with their love. how the heck could you recognize if a shellfish is egocentric?

    You can either move on or keep holding on.
