writes: My boyfriend is currently in medical school and has his board exams this weekend. Last weekend, he said that he was going to study ALL weekend, but wanted to do something Friday night. So we went to dinner with his mom, then back to his place for some t.v. and I spent the night. Then, I didn't hear from him AT ALL on Saturday after I left his house around 11am. I figured he was focused studying, so I didn't want to interrupt him. But I thought he would at least text me at some point! So Sunday morning, I sent a text saying simply, "Good morning babe. How's studying going?" I didn't get a response until 6:30 pm saying that he was getting a lot done, how was my day, etc. So I still didn't think much of the lack of contact, I just figured he was focusing completely on his studies.So Monday rolls around, and he invites me out for dinner, then we came back to my place to hang out and he spent the night. While we were at dinner, I asked him how his weekend was, and he said he ended up going to a town about an hour and a half away, got a cheap hotel room, and studied there. (He moved his mom in with him and she drives him crazy). I was just like, "Oh, ok"...didn't let it phase me. But now that I think about it, it seems very, very odd. Why would he leave town just to study? And if he needed to get away from his house, why not just get a room here in our city? Do you think anything suspicious is going on? I've never had any suspicions about him until now. Should I bring this up to him? I don't want to be the psycho girlfriend who doesn't trust him, but this scenario just seems a little fishy to me.

My thought is he probably went to another town, so his Mum couldn't bug him by expecting him to come to her if she could find a reason to do so, or turn up where he stayed, that of course depends on how his Mum drives him crazy though. You have had no reason not to trust him before, so I would trust what he says. If after his exams he starts getting a room out of town for mysterious reasons then I would worry. Good Luck

reader, anonymous, writes (16 March 2012): I can understand why it sounds fishy but I don't think he would have confessed to getting a room if he had anything to hide.
These exams are really important to him and his future. He has kept up contact, seen you and you have never had any doubts before.
I would trust him, take his word for it,he has alot on at the moment and going somewhere quiet where he won't be disturbed makes sense.
If after the exams he vanishes to a strange hotel, then yes, you can ask questions,but this time I would just accept it.
