Whether you've just met a lady and swapped phone numbers, or you've been dating for a while, a relationship shouldn't revolve around chatting on the phone for extended periods of time. Here are four reasons why: 1. Because That's What Girls Do! Most women like to be courted through letters and calls from men who know them well enough to think about what they want vs. what they need. A new friend might suggest that you both go out for dinner together before you part ways. A more serious relationship would require you to share more than just food. The most effective way to get a number of emails or messages out is to use the telephone. It's easy, free and can be used for almost any purpose! The old school method of writing letters helps build relationships because there's a tangible product that comes after you send something in the mail - a postcard or gift card. You can't do that when you're talking on the phone so it must be done verbally or in email. Also, girls like to be asked out - on the phone or not. They love it when you take an interest in what makes them smile every day by asking them questions about their lives. This shows that you care about more than just having your own fun!
