I've chided long time partners for kind of wandering off when we're, for example, doing something in the Sierra. One time, we were doing a one day ascent of BCS's North Arete, and my partner, who was hiking behind me, decided he was going to take a different route out to the car without telling me. We eventually hooked up later but only after I stopped, waited, backtracked, etc., not knowing if he had stopped, was hurt, whatever. Though an experienced climber, he seemed really puzzled why I was pissed at him.
