Poll question: If you're attached
(dating, married, partnered, single)

If you and your SO click when together, but the other seems distant on the phone and in e-mails, would you be worried?

(I'm leaning toward Naah, everybody's different.)

2. Married 18 years
Phone conversations are limited to the basics, email too. The rest of life is good.

3. Everyone's experience is different
Edited on Tue May-11-04 10:42 PM by Rabrrrrrr
An online poll will not answer the question you are really asking, which is a question that you can only ask your SO. And which you SHOULD ask your SO.

But let me say that I empathize with the anxiety you are going through. It's an annoyingly difficult situation to be in.

4. Not attached but
really bad at phone chit chat. Beyond the basics, I'm not a "must keep in constant touch" througout the day person.

I just don't have the talking gene. But I make a special effort to communicate when spending face2face time.

6. I would think I would be worried
if I didn't feel distant to my SO when we talk on the phone (shes out of town for 3 months). I would usually rather be next to her.

8. My guy is really formal on the phone...
He'll relax but it takes a while. He also writes e-mails like personal letters. His grammer, punctuation and syntax is correct (he teaches English and Spanish)

9. I suck on the phone myself
So I wouldn't be too worried.
