okay it sounds like he's being selfish. I understand his frustration but come on! First of all ask yourself is he at least a bit concerned with your health? This is your bf who should show you a bit of compassion right now. Swine flu can be a serious issue if left untreated. Instead of asking you if there is anything he can bring you like gaterade, soup, sprite, etc. he ask if he can go over and pick up your computer. Again I understand he's a bit frustrated becausehe feels alone right now but to treat you like crap nah! He is just your bf can you imagine if he was your husband. Girlfriend sounds to me that you need to evaluate your relationship with him. I wouldn't answer the phone the next time he calls. Later you tell him that you were getting the much needed rest you needed.

 It's fair enough, it just shows that he relise on you are you are a good help to him. He is just panicking because you are better at your job than he is, haha. The laptop is also fair enough, if your laptop does have the the good programs on it, then I guess he does have a reason to take it . Hope you get better soon.
