I have a friend I've given advice to for 3 years. Recently we agreed to hangout, and she gave me her number. It's a long distance. Just a few states from each other. So I made the effort to call and we talk more online than we do on the phone. She told me I have bad timing when I call, but she said it in a joking way. The other day I called. Her little sister picked up the phone. Then the sound got muffled, and the dial tone stopped. She told me she's really talkative in person, but idk..Should I take this personally?

maybe she felt awkward that her sister picked up, and little sisters like to blabber things. maybe she doesn't want her parents to know or something that you guys talk from distance. i don't think you should take it personally, just talk to her online, maybe she's not ready for the phone. you know?

Maybe someone made her hang up the phone? I wouldn't think too much of it though. Next time you talk to her on line, ask her what happened.

Just make sure the person talking isn't sexual predator.

Well if it was her sister that picked up the phone and you never talked to her (the girl, not that sister) then more than likely her sister didn't know who you were and hung up.

I wouldn't take it personally. Just next time you talk online setup a time too talk.

^this is a good idea. i only talk to a few people on the phone for a decent amount of time but in person i'll talk to pretty much everyone i know for hours. it's just different on talking on the phone for some people.

I took everyone's advice and I didn't take it personally. I did talk to her online. I don't think she's comfy talking on the phone yet. She said she's more into talking in person. Which is ok by me. Looking forward to seeing her.

no, i wasn't being sarcastic. i'm just thinking why would a girl want to meet a guy in person.. if it was me and i never met him, i would rather talk to him on the phone than meet in person. i'd be cautious.. idunno, that's my opinion. phone is more safer, i guess.
