A while back we explored 5 reasons that guy don’t call, and we got so much feedback about it that we decided to do include some of that information in another article. There are a lot of reasons why guys just don’t seem to call, and it can really be heart-wrenching to a woman. No one wants to sit around just wondering, do they? That’s like the worse torture of all. What would possess a guy to do such a thing? Well, here’s 5 more reasons that guys don’t call.

He doesn’t like to talk on the phone

Guys are different creatures. They rarely call someone just to talk. Usually their conversations consist of quick greetings and a purpose (much like the way they go to the mall). They call someone to see what they’re doing later, and to check what time they’re going to meet up later. When the idea of having to actually talk about stuff with someone (especially a girl) on the phone, a lot of guys are a little hesitant to do so.

He doesn’t want to talk about his feelings

Even worse than having to hold a conversation, guys don’t want to discuss their feelings. This is a general rule, but it’s even more true when it comes to talking on the phone. When you just meet a guy, you don’t have that level of comfort with each other yet. This leads to awkwardness when it comes to conversing on the phone. Guys don’t deal with that type of emotion very well, and they’d rather just avoid it if at all possible.

He’s just getting out of a relationship

Just like women, there are some men that just aren’t ready to get back into anything serious right now. When you have recently gotten out of a serious relationship there are a lot of left over feelings that really make it difficult to really start something else with someone new. Maybe he’s just looking forward to being single for a while, and doesn’t want to complicate it. Not to mention, he could still have feelings for his ex, and in that case it’s probably better he doesn’t call.

He lost your number

I know it sounds far-fetched, but people do lose numbers. If you met him at a bar or some other social setting, it’s real easy to misplace something. I always think that people should exchange numbers when meeting if there’s a mutual attraction, instead of only one person giving the other their number. That way you can eliminate the possibility of something silly like this preventing you from having a love connection. If you really want to know, give him a call. If it happens again, just leave it alone and move on.

He doesn’t remember you (all that well)

Okay so this just sounds bad, but let’s be honest. Sometimes you go out to have a great time with your friends at the local club or bar, party with a cute guy, and get really trashed together. Everyone has been there at some point or another. Sometimes when you wake up that next morning with a random number you’re hesitant to call. When you know you’ve been pretty drunk with someone you just met, you’re always self-conscious to what they really thought about you. Did you think it was a great time because you were drunk, or did they have a great time too? What did she really look like, was she as cute as I thought she was? When you get into that type of situation, sometimes it’s better to let one really fun night stay as such.

Meeting people is hard. There’s so much that goes into meeting someone, and all of the awkward feelings and uncertainty can really take a toll on you. The key is to not beat yourself up too much about a guy that you just met. If he does happen to call, take it slow and make sure he’s the guy you thought he was. If he is, make sure you do the things to win him over.
