MentalFloss...let me start by saying I am very sorry for the loss of your father. As far as your BF goes, when I am spending time (quality or otherwise) with my wife or kids (even my friends for that matter) I make sure that all my phone calls have been made before hand. If I get a phone call during I ask the person if I can call them back. As far as the video goes...it was not until about a year ago (my wife and I have been married seven years) that I really appreciated watching a movie with her (chick flicks). Now I miss that time that she and I got to spend together. Sympathy, if your BF is anything like me it is hard for him to show sympathy, mainly because we (guys) were never really allowed to express our feelings growing up. I am not making exscuses for him, but it is the way we are wired (albeit I am wire a lot different then most men). As far as whether you should dump him or not, this is something that you should really ask yourself. If it is one thing I have learned it is not to take advice from other people about your day to day affairs (trust me I know first hand). You sound like a wonderful person and he should be lucky to have you...and it is not overreacting, it is your personality. Keep smiling
