You're absolutely right.

What exactly do you mean by "good safe way"? Because it sounds like you're looking for the magic words that won't make him angry, and you have to stop thinking like that.

How about this: if he's going out and tells you when he plans to be home, turn your phone off after that time and go to bed. If he comes home and asks you why you didn't answer his calls/texts, tell him that you weren't worried about him and went to bed.

See, he expects you to be hanging on his every word, waiting for that little bit of contact from him. Try that for a couple of nights and see what happens.
