Communication and vacations

My boyfriend is on vacation with his daughter (early teens) for 7 days (it is almost over). I wasn't expecting much texting, but I'm disappointed that he didn't send a single photo or one or two check-in texts during the day to let me know he was thinking about me. He did text me in the evening, but barely. Just a quick hi, it's awesome here, and then a few times he stopped responding (I'm guessing he was busy with his kid), so I just went to bed. I guess I'm just hurt and wanted a little effort. He had time to post a video on Facebook. If I was on vacation, I'd think of him and send a few photo and texts. It makes me feel like he didn't think about me at all. We have been together for almost a year.

What do you think, am I overreacting? I'm not planning on turning this into a fight, probably just a discussion about how I'm disappointed and hurt.

Trip to Boston

I'm from Vermont, but left after high school, and moved back in my 40s. I went to Boston once when I was in grade school. As an adult, who wants to take a trip there with my kid, what is the best way to get there? I want to see the zoo (the lights) and the aquarium. Would driving be a good choice? I know a lot of people take the bus. Also, any recommendations for hotels so I could possibly walk to some of these places? My daughter is 7, any other must see places would also be great.

Thanks for any advice/tips!

Do you see us as long term?

I have been with my boyfriend for 10 months and I asked him if he saw us as long term. He said "yes, I think it's possible." Is this a good sign, or does it sound like there is hesitation there? Does this response mean he isn't sure, and if he was sure, he'd give a more definite answer?

Please don't be rude, I was in a bad marriage and I'm having some anxiety now that I'm dating again, despite being single for two years after my divorce.

Should I say something or let this go

I have been with my boyfriend for 10 months. We matched on OLD on Sept 15th and had our first date on Oct 1st. He had told me his last relationship had only lasted about a month or so and ended around the beginning of June. I found out today that they were actually together on Aug 31st and then the relationship must have ended sometime in the beginning of Sept. He doesn't know that I know this.

He had said that she ended up going on a vacation and then ghosting him and he went on OLD and saw that she was active again. He must have gone active after he saw that and then met me shortly after.

I know why he lied, if he had told me he just got out of a relationship a few weeks prior, I wouldn't have gone on a date with him. I'm annoyed by this though, not only did he lie, but it makes me feel like I was initially a rebound. I was single for two years after my divorce. I am not going to break up with him over this. So do I say something, or let this go? If I say something, what should I say? I feel like I'll turn it into a fight because I'm mad.
