You haven't heard from your guy in a few days and he doesn't respond to phone calls. You're frustrated and aggravated at the way he's treating you. You feel insignificant and angry with him. You're on the brink of marching over to his house and really letting him have a piece of your mind. Part of you knows that's not the best approach to take though. You're right. There is a way to handle this in such a way that he comes to his senses and realizes what a treasure he has in you.
If he doesn't respond to phone calls it's because he doesn't respect or value you. It's truly that simple. When a man loves a woman and thinks highly of her, he'll want to keep her happy. He'll be eager and excited to take her calls because he's so smitten with the sound of her voice. If your guy doesn't race to pick up the phone when you're calling he's not that into you. As soon as you face that fact you can then get to work making him appreciate you more.
What's the thing you typically do when he doesn't answer your calls? You likely leave a voicemail complaining about his behavior. Maybe you tell him that you'll break up with him or maybe you're crying and trying to explain how much you love him and how you hate the way he treats you. It's almost certain that once he hears it's you on his voicemail message that he doesn't even listen to the entire thing. He doesn't want to hear how you think he does everything wrong. That's also the reason he's not returning your call right away. He doesn't want to be confronted about what he's been doing or in this case, not been doing.
The very best thing any woman in this situation can do is to stop trying to reach her man. Each time you call him and he doesn't respond, you are devaluing yourself. You're essentially telling him that you'll chase him around like a lovesick puppy dog forever. He will never change his behavior because he knows that you're not going anywhere at all. The only sure way to alter this situation is to alter your own behavior.
Move forward with your life and do so with a smile on your face. Forget about him for now and allow him the opportunity to see that you're done playing his games. Once he comes to the clear realization that you're not going to keep chasing him, he'll start chasing you. The fear of losing the woman he loves will be enough to jolt him back into behaving the way a boyfriend should.
