| Why does he always tell me to call him? Posted: 5/5/2007 3:04:23 AM | I have a buddy that does that. Absolutely will not call you first, girl or guy.
I have seen him sit home on a Saturday night and not leave, because no one called him. He keeps picking up his phone to look for the voice mail icon. 'i cant believe no one has called me yet!'
So i ask him 'why dont you call them?' He always says 'f*** that, if they want to hang out with me, they can call me'.
sometimes ill ask him at work 'did you run into any of the other guys?' he'll say 'nope, nobody called me so F*** em.'
Or the guys will ask him why he didnt go out the night before 'nobody called me'.
to me it seems like hes always testing his friends to see if they like him. every day. if they dont call him, het gets mad and acts like they are blowing him off.
he's the only one i know who does that. its like he gauges his popularity by who calls whom. | |

| Why does he always tell me to call him? Posted: 5/5/2007 9:45:13 AM | | Since you're just friends, remember that men and women handle friendships differently. I think women tend to stay much more in-touch and connected than guys do. Men are not as likely to call unless they need someone to talk to, which is usually less often than women. Just my 2 cents ... | |

You could just ask him to call you sometime. Just say it in a jokingly serious way, or just come out and tell him to call you before he gets a chance to say it. | |

But if he DOESN'T ask EVERYONE to call him, he's not sure you'll answer his call. If he really just thought of you as friends, why should be care if you won't accept his calls? Because he wants to be more than friends, and that's that.
How do you know? Ask his friends. Or the people who know him. Or his work-mates. Or the people who work in the shops he regularly goes to. You'd be surprised what they know.
Optional second: tell him you want more, than a friend. Say: "Would you like to go out to ...?" When he says yes, then tell him its a date. He'll either say "Look I don't fancy you", "I'm with someone", "I'm gay". Anything else = I'm scared. Go for it.
Either will do. | |
