If someone calls me for a specific reason its not a big deal unless they are the type who just talks on and on.

It might make me sound like an a-hole, but if someone calls just to "see whats going on" that annoys the shite out of me because I do not like to really talk on the phone. When my mom calls I have to give her short answers "okay" "yes" "no" "I am not sure yet" because if I say anything more it just makes her talk more. And she tells me the same shite over and over. Sometimes she starts talking about one thing then will jump to a whole different topic.. There are times when I really just want to hang up the phone.

I have a friend who is not nearly as bad, but he will call out of the blue for no specific reason. Sometimes I will let it go to VM hoping he will say the reason he is calling, but anyone else just do not like talking on the phone?

I like talking to my mom on the phone. Or when people call me to tell me happy birthday it means more to me than a text. That's about it.

All moms do that I'm 36 and my mom calls me twice a day with nothing important to say. It's annoying but cherish it bc one day it won't be there jerk

I can not stand talking in the phone. I'm know to everybody that might call as "that guy that never answers". I purposely leave my phone as much as I can, if I am doing something I will let it ring and call them back later, I just hate it. If it were not for my wife and kid I would not have it at all

I ignore far more calls than I ever take.

Leave a VM or text me.

Phone conversations (non conference calls) should be 2 minutes or less.

I do not enjoy it at all, and I take care of business and end the call when I have to.

But some, especially women, just yack about nothing even if driving, shopping for groceries, at the doctors office, etc. They seem to use it like a pacifier.

Yeah that's pretty messed up. You do realize that this is your Mom right? I agree with the above poster. You might want to reevaluate life and take advantage of the time you have to talk to her.

I don't like talking on the phone at all...people know the quickest way to get in touch with me is by e-mail or text.
