DEAR DEIDRE: MY boyfriend went on holiday and didn’t even say goodbye.
He just said he’d call me when he got back, leaving me really upset and confused.

I don’t understand how he can forget me for a fortnight.
I really miss him but don’t want to text him in case he doesn’t answer.
From tongue scraping to saying no, here are 12 health trends to try in 2023DEIDRE SAYS: A relationship can’t work without communication. His behaviour is inconsiderate at best. When he’s back, please tell him how you felt.

Perhaps he’s someone who compartmentalises life.
Or maybe he’s got cold feet about your relationship, but lacks the courage to end it.
Either way, you deserve much better.
