okay... I'm a fourteen year-old female in my freshman year of high school. I'm also an advicenator, but I suck at giving good rational advice to myself. Now here's the problem: I have trouble talking on the phone, even with friends, but especially with guys I like. I have lots of self confidence and I'm really talkative online and in person... but the phone? I will admit that since I've moved I've become more shy, but I've always had this phone issue. I know that often in conversations I use things around me and improvise... so it's harder on the phone. What should I talk about? Why am I *nervous*? Any advice at all would be much appreciated because I have no clue how to not to be like this and I know this guy is going to call my sometime... I'll rate or comment if you want... thanks! (link)

Here's the thing.
Phone conversations *Especially with boys* Are highly overrated.
Personally (And also backed by the comments of male friends) Men like a woman who is (Read: Acts)
Too busy to spend a lot of time on the telephone. You've got better things to do. (And also this leaves him wondering what those "Better things" are!) If you state near the beginning of the conversation that you're busy (Casually, like "I'm just in the middle of something, but, whats up?") Its gonna force him to get to the point: Asking you out so you can be your lovely and animated self in person. Then when you respond and "have to go, but you'll talk to him really soon." It's not awkward. he already knows you were busy.
