Jamer70 agony auntWell alot of men hate the phone, personally if i can keep a convo under a min, its a win.

But talking to a GF is different and for teenage boys more difficult, moreeeeee so if your shy. Some people stutter cant speak, speak gibberish when confronted with the voice of the female they like. If you really want to talk, which you should take the lead in the convo, lead it he should be fine with your help and bare with him if hes nervous

baddogbj agony auntSeriously, a lot of guys are just not that good on the telephone and avoid initiating phone calls if they can. Way back in the days before e.mail and txt there were times when I would walk to the station, take a train for 1/2 an hour, walk to her house all to slip a letter under her door rather than pick up the phone.

Having said that though, when she called me and took the lead in the conversation, I would be delighted.

I totally agree with Jamer70.

I only see you say he emails and texts you everyday. If he is initiating that much conversation but just not the call, instead of suspecting him, you should really think for yourself why.

Call him. Tell him you would be happy receiving his call. It is ok even he called rarely, shows your understanding that the charges are expansive.

He taking all the steps. Why not you if you can?

Jamer70 agony auntWell it could be a couple of things

1. Calling different countries is expensive espacially for a teen

2. Some people get nervous speaking, as when you email/message you have the backspace key to erase any mistake and have all the time to articulate the perfect reponse

A fix

1. call him
