I used to do that to Jerry, too, but that was before cell phones. Sometime during the time he woke up and when he was walking out the door, I would say "Don't gooo... stay here with me." It drove him NUTZ!! I'll jokingly say it now and I still don't get a smile even though he knows I don't mean it anymore.
My DIL used to do even worse! She'd go to work with him and sit outside in the car and wait. It drove my son NUTZ, too. She would text him when she knew he was coming over and once he said, "She's such a nag!"
I would say men don't like that... wouldn't you?
