Quote: He called me Friday - but I wasn't home and I was out of my cell phone service area. When I called him back later, he wasn't very talkative. He actually sounded tired so I just assumed it was because he hadn't gotten much sleep the past two nights and kept the call short.
Excellent that you were unavailable, and better yet that you were able to keep the call short
Quote: There was a lot of silence. I did ask him about himself - How was his day, Was he busy - and I asked him about the new truck (he was like a kid with a new toy the night he bought it). But he just wasn't talkative and that does bother me.
I'm currently re-reading the Mars/Venus book, and it helps so much with understanding these infernal silences. TJ, the book may be a worthwhile investment.
