writes:This is one for the guys. I'm just wondering if generally men aren't interested in keeping in touch with their girlfriends via calls and texts. Not that you don't care about your gfs - but you don't feel the need to keep in touch with them when they are not around? Do girls feel the need to keep in touch more than guys do? The reason I ask is because my bf gets in touch to make plans but never spontaneously calls or texts. He says that he just doesn't like using the phone. I miss him when he's not around and want to call him to see how he is, what he's up to, how his day has been, etc. And it doesn't seem like he feels that way. Is this a general difference between guys and their ladies? I feel that because I want to keep in touch more, he must not care about me in the same way I do for him.

For me it's always like, they'll text and call non-stop at first, but then once it's official and they know you've got you they just stop doing it as much. I haven't seen my boyfriend since wednesday and since then I've only had 4 short texts. its ridiculously annoying!

When her phone went off I knew who it was - and they lived together.He ended the relationship though wanted to be free to meet others,enjoy his new job.
So, I don't think it is a case of who likes who more, its down to personality. My sons ring to say only what they need to, when they will be round or to ask me for sunday lunch,they're the same with their wife and g/fs.They chat face to face instead.

 Not all, but most. Not a red flag in itself.

 Not everyone likes using the phone for talking or texting and he's made that clear. If he likes to talk to you face to face then I don't think it has anything to do with his feelings for you. If you want a guy who obsessively calls and texts then get a new BF. Don't nag him about this either.

 It's the difference between you and him...
I've always had chatty guys who like to talk on the phone.
if everything else is perfect... it may just be him....
But I have to say that the only time I have had men not want to talk on the phone was when I was more into them then they were into me... I found that once they were into me as much as I was into them they became more chatty.
