Phone Calls

This guy I messaged on the free internet dating site was a high match with me; he's cute; he's kid-less! He messaged back, and we exchange phone numbers. I really had high hope for this guy. He called today, and it was the most uncomfortable phone call I've ever had. He's quiet, and there will be long stretch of silence. I am fairly good at keep the conversation afloat, but I can't do it on my own. He strikes me as your typical computer nerd who lacks social skills. That's not how his profile came across. Who knows. Maybe he's just, um, uninterested? Then why the hell call? After about 8 minutes I was ready to scream "man you've got to give me something to work with". He didn't ask me out, so I just yarned and said I should get going. Sigh. Another one bites the dust.
