		<description>I would be a little annoyed just becasue I was worried, but I wouldn&#039;t make a deal about it unless there was a pre-arranged just in time...like Lara said...

I would just be glad everybody was okay and talk about it for next time....if you think this would be an on going worry.

Other than that I&#039;d just say &quot; I was a little worried because it was a unknown person from the internet... if it is a person you meet from the internet message me to let me know if he is a &quot;whackadoo&quot; or not next time, just so my imagination doesn&#039;t go all wiggy.&quot;

but that is just my humble opinion.</description>

		<description>Roommate&#039;s not responsible for female any more and is overreacting, and female isn&#039;t responsible for keeping roommate appraised of her condition.

Also, female was getting nailed by loser she met over the Internet.  It&#039;s her ditch, let her lie in it.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m with blogosaurus. If there was a pre-arranged check-in, then, yes, you have every right to be pissed.

If not, then she was just out, and didn&#039;t hear her cell phone, and didn&#039;t know that you were anxious to hear from her. When she did notice the message, she probably texted you right away, rather than calling. If you were waiting up for her, you get the text and be reassured. If you were in bed, chances are you wouldn&#039;t wake up, or had even turned the phone off before going to bed, and you&#039;d get the message in the morning that sh was okay. But if she called, then she definitely would have woken you up.</description>

		<description>Overreacting.  (Unless they had a prior arrangement to exchange text messages or otherwise check in, which changes things.)  The roommate&#039;s concern is touching, but he&#039;s not her mother.  She an adult and has to be responsible for taking care of herself.  It&#039;s not her job to check her phone all night long just in case someone else is nervous about her social plans (again, unless there was a prior arrangement).

But one thing doesn&#039;t make sense - sounds like the roommate was pissed that she texted at 4am.  Which is it: was he worried and wanted to hear from her, or he wants to be left alone to sleep?  These are not compatible purposes.  My guess is she didn&#039;t get the text until then, and figured better late than never - especially if she thought he might have been waiting up for her, worried. She may actually have been trying to be considerate.

But again, it&#039;s very kind of the roommate to be so concerned.  There&#039;s nothing wrong with caring about other people.  But you have to respect their right to make their own choices, even the stinky ones.  Or at least that&#039;s what I think.</description>
