I said that i thought he would be pleased that we were in contact again and i didn't realise it was a drain?Just felt offended by that remark....do you think im over reacting?

I agree completely with Caring Guy. We girls do tend to have deeper meaning behind our words, but guys don't. They say what they mean, and that's why they don't understand us, because we are saying one thing, but sometimes have hidden meanings in the words, assuming that they guys gets us..and guess what?? They don't! Because they don't think like us. As my guy says to me sometimes "You're thinking too deeply..putting things into it that aren't there...." Hope that helps you. I believe your guy really just was tired. Don't make more out of it than that.

A little bit. But here's why. Women look for more meaning in a man's words than there are, because when a woman speaks her words often have a deeper meaning, or a hidden meaning or a hint. Men don't work like that. We pretty much speak literally. When he said he was going to bed, he basically meant he was just tired and was going to bed. There's no hidden meaning or anything like that. He's just saying he will be going to bed. It means nothing else.
