It takes two keystrokes to send a smile.
Sorry but I would be worried. Dead people don't call back.

And what if there was an emergency? She has a kid and she is not noticing her phone going off every hour?

That would add to my paranoia. Not to mention that she answers for the co-worker but won't even txt back her husband a smile?

Just because it rings dosent mean you have to answer it. My bf is a phone ho. Its been a point of contention at times. He would call me 15 times at work, on the drive home, etc. After a few long conversations about it being inappropriate for him to call me at work and so much, I just quit answering my phone. I dont understand the constant need to call when you know someone is not in a position to talk on the phone. If my bf dosent answer, I leave a message for him to call when he gets a chance and wait for him to call.

Does it make a difference in behavior if the "married women" have been married for 3 decades and are part of the organizing? Just sayin' - I would think so...

Well yeah, no one likes to get their ear blown off. One text or one call a day though? Come on! What if their kid got hurt or something? That's not very "mother like" and I hope she is enjoying getting drunk off her ass on someone elses dime.

From what I gather from the OP, it's been several days.

I'm not sure it makes a difference in how long the woman has been married, but I believe it does make a difference in how happily she is married.

If she's the event organizer, she's not going to be getting drunk or she'd be getting fired.

Where did you get from? He only posted twice and it seemed like this morning was the first day he hadn't spoken to her. At least that's what I'm gathering from the second post:

She phones me 5 minutes later her phone was on silent and she’s still having fun. They had a meeting and then drove up the coast.

I guess everything is fine I’ll get her a the airport. I behaved like a teenager. Beleive me. Next time I’ll be at the last evening dinner no matter what it costs.

In future I’ll be less complacent about her. I still loves her as much as 33 years ago when we got married.
Where does he say it was SEVERAL DAYS of her not answering??

I also did not get "several days" .... I would get upset/antsy after several days. I would not get upset/antsy after several hours.
