It is a tactic used to create drama, mystery and interest in the girlfriends so that they do not get bored of the over-affectionate boyfriends. Otherwise, the girlfriends might start to take him for granted if he calls too much.
It worked on you. You are here asking about it becuase it had it's desired effect.

I do the same thing. I call a girl at max twice a week. Guys hate talking on the phone. Guys prefer to talk in person, where we can see you and appreciate the conversation. It's also about space. The way girls are today, if you give call them more than a few times, you're smothering them. If you call them a few times, you're not calling enough. Guys get sick of this, and avoid calling whenever possible. He's probably trying to give you space so that he doesn't have to hear about it later. The attitude with most guys I know is this: "Give her space, and if she wants to talk to me, she will in her own time."

Hi Anonymous,
First off, not all guys are like this. At least, the ones who really care and want to be in a committed relationship. If he only calls you when he "needs to 'do it'" then I think you are in a relationship with the wrong guy. If he only calls you when he "needs to do it," then it seems to me that he is using you only for sexual gratification. He straight up told you that there was nothing to talk about, right? I think it's time to seriously evaluate where things stand in your relationship. And I suggest including him in it, too.
Take care.
