Then he doesn't reply, at all - which any reasonable person would perceive as being blown off.

This would be hurtful in any close, intimate relationship.

Certainly worth discussing next session. There is more than likely a reasonable explanation I.e. a missed email or a hectic schedule.

But again IMO, I don't see this as an over-reaction.
It feels like an overreaction because of how long the anger is lasting, and how consuming it is. I'm not getting stuff done with school because I'm stewing.
