So so annoying

This topic was created in the Relationships & Astrology forum by LovelyLibra on Monday, November 13, 2006 and has 10 replies.
Whats up with you guys when you say you'll call back or call right back, and then we not hear from you for days/weeks later and then you ask us why we haven't called you??? I'm very prideful, so if a guy says he'll call and doesn't I just leave it at that. Is that wrong on my part? Should I just call anyways? Why do so many men do that? Is it a fear or rejection behind this beahvior?

I've actually read up and done some research on this topic. I approached it just as a need to know and I polled guy friends. And I make no claims that this is scientifically right or anything. But I too hate when I guy doesn't call. Now it could mean that he's super busy; his mother might have died or some other horrible thing. However it's more likely that he simply just didn't have interest and it's not a reflection against you. But he's looking for some spark in the beginning.
The best tip I can come up with so this doesn't happen is when giving your number make it a game of hard to get...
Lines like "Are you actually going to call?" or "If I do give you this number you have 48 hours to call or we can never be friends" or "You can't call me till Thursday" which apparantly makes the guy start thinking your number is more important is the way to go. Biggest tip I can figure out is basically be a beotch or completely confident when giving out the number... the 'ok my number is' then sitting around waiting and hoping because there was no connection gives the guy the power to decide if he can somehow do better. (Stupid man that he is.)
And if he doesn't call always remember that's he's not worth a second of your time anyhow.
(Like I said my tips of giving out your number is based on personal testing and guy friends tips... in no way does this mean I'm actually right. But I enjoy creating pet theories and testing my theories.)

I almost never give a guy my number, so I've just happened to luck out on the whole "he never called" thing. First of all, I never offer my phone number in the first place. Ever. If he asks for it, I usually say something like..."hmmm...I don't normally give my number to people I don't know very well." To which he usually replies, "oh I understand, let me give you my number." So, I take it. Then I NEVER tell him I'm going to call him. I pause, and then he usually says, "you should call me tomorrow" (or whatever day). And then I say, "I will." I leave it at that. I call on the day I said I would, and I judge much of what will transpire next between us based on the first phone interaction. And I keep it short. Ten minutes is good, I can get a pretty accurate reading on him within that time frame.
Then, if I truly like him, the next time he asks me for my number (and he will), I will give it to him. But I will not make the next call. He will.
And usually everything goes very well this way! smile (I believe you should let the guy lead the calling, always. If they like you, they will do almost anything to get in touch with you one way or another)
Good luck!

OK, girls and guy. If you decide to give your number to a guy, never anticipate the call (I never care either way, unless he was super hot and if that was the case, I don't give him mine, I get his and wait about 3-5 days to call) If I give a man my number then I am not extremely interested and can decide if I want to answer or not... If I take your number - I like you and can contact you, but will make you wait to hear from me for a couple days without any access to me immediately. It works like a charm every time!!!

Well my Libra friend does this all the time and we have been best-friends for 6-years, he loves me and all that stuff, and my ex (libra) used to do it all the time also and he asked to marry me, so the moral of the story is... know your guy. Feel him out. Some guys do not like to use the phone, period. They will call, but sporadically and if they say they will call back, please do not hold your breath or get mad. Just let it go and do something else. Now my Libra friend says he does not call me back bc everytime he does I am busy or don't answer the phone. This is true, but at least he is actively thinking about what I am doing when he DOES finally call back and he knows I am not sitting by the phone waiting for him. I believe there is something to this elusive thing, bc men drive us crazy when they do it to us.. so why not give them a taste of their own medicine??
If you decide to call and he does not answer his phone or does not return your call that day. Then he needs to be on the "no call" list until he redeems himself.
