To call or not to call

K so i guess now is a good time to spill my guts, although I can sorta see this coming back to bite me lol so anyways so this is just what I've been wondering lately..... If a guy gives you his number and you give him yours who's responsibility is it to make the first call?? For instance you've been getting to know this guy and ever things going good, you bug each other, you flirt, all that good stuff. Then you give him your number and he gives you his. But then nothing really happens... so you kinda make jokes about it, and he says stuff like well you know phones work both ways, you both laugh about it ( another question would be is making jokes about him not calling a bad thing? Does it give off an impression that you would be clingy or something crazy like that) Any ways again neither of you call the other. So is this just past the point of bothering to call, would it be weird now?? I'm sure this is just me thinking about this way too much but that's kinda my thing and what I do lol. So is it the girls or the guys responsibility or does it have nothing to do with gender and more so who gave their number first?? I have no idea!! I hate talking on the phone anyways! Unless I'm good friends with the person or unless their really good at talking, like suzane!! Otherwise it's just awckward, kinda like hey, ya hey , and then there's a long silence and then a little bit of small talk then possibly some fake laughing, maybe some lame jokes and more fake laughter. Well thats maybe the worse case scenerio lol. I think that I'm just a bad phone talker, cause unless you know me it's hard to appreciate my humor=)
On the other hand I wonder if him not calling and also starting to be a little shy is cause its coming up to the end of the summer and I'm moving to Winnipeg and he's staying here so it's not like we're going to see each other anymore anyways. Kinda thinking this isn't really going anywhere so why proceed thought.
But it could also be that he just wanted some and since that hasn't happened has lost interest!
( Just cause I know this question is coming from many of my friends when, or even if they ever read this, No I am not in-like with this guylol, it's just that all of a sudden things kinda stopped and I was like o k what just happened? So confused lol, Kinda just hoping that I could be friends with this funny guy but whatever)
Well I started out wondering about all this and now I've kinda lost my train of thought lol so hopefully you'll at least find this a little entertaining. Or maybe you can at least find some humor in my lameness lol.

So if you have any thoughts at all please share, leave a message, unless its wow katie you have way to much time on your hands you need a REAL LIFE!! In that case I already got the memo. Six times lol jj.

Ok so by the time I registered I may have forgotten what your blog was about. Keywords being "may have". But as well all know I have a slight attention problem or maybe I'm just a hyperchondriac when it comes to my mental condition. I'm ranting right now.
Ok so here's my comment(s). So your having boy troubles. That must suck but anyways. Us boys are real confusing. I confuse myself all the time so just imagine what I do to other people. So what I'm getting at is that you shouldn't really worry about his comments. He's probably just as nervous and unsure as you. But anyways I'm sure you'll sort this out with no problems and everyone will be happy! :)

Wow i've been wondering the same thing for the past couple of weeks. I still don't know what the right answer is. And i don't like talking on the phone either. It always seems awkward. So yeah, I'm just as stuck as you. If you figure it out, tell me
Later

Ohhh ohhh I just came up with more wisdom. (Wisdom and me. I'm pretty sure those are exact opposites but that's neither here nor there). If you like the guy (this goes for you to adri if you like some guy to) and I mean really really like. Then suck it up and call him. I'll come over and poke you with a stick to make you call him if you'd like it. As a firm believer in equal rights I believe that girls have just as much responsibility in calling as the guy does. Then again I wouldn't take relationship advice from me. But if you ever want advice on the weather!

Oh one last comment to boost your confidence. Now I know you hate when I bring this up but....as a former boyfriend I talked to ya on the phone a few times. I'd have to say in my opinion that the phone conversations weren't bad at all and you talk fine on the phone. Now call the guy! He's probably at home waiting by the phone.

Brad you make me laugh. butttt at the same time I've pretty decided not to call him. Not only is he older and a guy, I think I've made it pretty clear that I like him. Therefore it's his turn, no his responisbility to make the call.lol
Wow I'm going to be single for the rest of my life!! lol

Hey at least that's one less person you have to Christmas shop for! Oh and you haven't made it clear unless you said it to his face or wrote it in big letters on a piece of paper and shoved in his face, etc.
