How can you honestly expect people to wait 4 minutes for you in a game when you say gimme 1 second?
The average game length in irl minutes is less than 10 minutes long (much lower on ladder usually), so to wait 4 minutes is a pretty big thing to ask a random stranger to do for you.
It sucks, yeah, but whatever, it's just one game and at least you know you could have won without your opponent getting to play without you

You did the right thing by pausing the game and helping out your mother. I understand why you were frustrated at first because I sometimes have to leave the computer in the middle of DOTA to kill a spider in my sister's room (she seriously can't do it herself because she's genuinely scared/disgusted), come back and I'm being blamed by teammates for all sorts of shit.
Oh well, as you realized yourself, a couple minutes off the game and it's all cool.

How do you know he wasn't in a hurry and didn't have the time to wait?
I'm sure he wasn't, but just saying. You can't expect people to wait for you, especially when they don't know you're situation.
I played vs a guy one time and he paused and I waited for 5 minutes, and then about 10 mins later, he paused again, another 5 minutes of waiting. Then for the third time, he paused, I said screw it after 30 secs and unpaused. You can only expect people to wait for so long.
It's annoying when you have to wait for someone to unpause, especially mid game like that. It makes you lose your train of thought, and even slows you down sometimes.
