Why I Don’t Like Answering The Phone
Everytime the phone rings I tend to avoid it. We have caller id but even when it’s someone familiar I rather have someone else answer it.

This is an incident that happen to me in the Philippines.
*ring** ring*
me:hello?
guy: Na si ____? (is ____ there)
me: Wrong number (said it in English*big mistake!*)
The next thing I knew this guy was flirting with me! First he asked questions like what country I was from and what age I was. I told him I’m only 14 (at the time) and he didn’t believe me. He told me he’s 45! And that he was muscular and that I must be some sexy goddess or something. He was asking me what my cell phone number was and I hanged up on him.
I told my friend about it the next day and we both agreed that this guy wanted to fuck a 14-year-old.
I can’t help it if I have an older sexy seductive voice. That’s why I tend not to answer the phone.
Haha, same thing almost happened to me. I answered the phone in Japanese for a salesman and he wouldn’t stop talking LOL.
Pagerank depends on a lot of different values, and there’s a lot of controversy right now as people were dropped down from like … 2 to 0 and that kind of thing for no reason at all. I’m still at a 3 so I’m not worried, I like linking to other sites.
45 yrs old!?? maniac ang lintak!!
anyway exene dear,
I’d like to wish you a very Merry Christmas! all the best ((hugses))
Haha… that kinda incidents are scary-ish but when you look back it’s kinda funny…
That’s so weird.
I had people tell me I have a nice voice on the phone (yes, it was one of the weirdest compliments I’ve gotten) but I dunno if that’s true anymore since I haven’t used a telephone in ages.
Ok, that’s weird, creepy and disturbing on a lot of levels. I wouldn’t want to answer the phone much either after this experience.
Well that’s slightly creepy of him. *cough* Or more so. It’s funny, I am 21 yet I sound like a little kid over the phone or at least that is what I have been told. They say my voice is ‘cute’ or something along those lines. I feel weird about it. I try to listen to my own voice to hear it but I annoy myself too much.
I’d much rather have a sexy voice!
ew. im glad that never happens to me. probably cuz most of the time, the fone line’s busy. hahahaha.
Ew @ old filipino pedophiles. yuck yuck yuck
there’s a lot out in the streets. ew
That is really creepy. I’m glad you hung up. Dirty old man. People like that shouldn’t exist T_T
hey! wow your story was funny! unfortunately i have the exact opposite problem; i’m fifteen and my voice sounds about 7
:S
anyways, hope you weren’t too creeped out or anything
Some guys just like to flirt on phone.. if you said you were 60 (and were actually 60) he wouldn’t stop.. Every time a friend tell me something like that, i wonder
Just why keep listening and answering then?! say “Sorry, wrong number” and hung up, that i what i would have done. But i must have nasty repulsive voice for gay guys i guess :p
This is why I’m phone-phobic.
Honestly, telephones are scary nowadays. Cell phones are just as bad. I regularly get calls from the same guy. A heavy breather. Eep.
Perhaps I should just cut off all communication and live as a hermit?
Ew. You should have just hung up! Some men are just gross…
Okaaaaaaay. WTF? A 45-year old hitting on a 14-year old kid?
I’d be too afraid to answer a phone after that as well. Ew, how creepy! Did you have caller ID back then? You should have gave that creep’s number to the police or something, the pedophile. Ew.
ade- yes, something about my voice didn’t sound 14. Maybe I should be a sex phone operator
annie- no caller id back then.
Ewww that’s creepy! I don’t blame you for not wanting to answer the phone. In the past, people would mistake me for my mom on the phone so her friends would start rambling on in tagalog. That always frustrated me.. especially since I don’t know the language.
Happy holidays, Exene!
Eww, that’s a good reason why not to answer the phone, haha~ People are so disgusting, I don’t get it.
Wow, that’s creepy. I’m glad that’s never happened to me. I think I sound like a kid on the phone.
I also hate answering the phone. I usually ignore it when it rings. Then I get scolded for not answering.
That’s revolting. Were you creeped out by that? There are some real sick people out there. I think pedeophiles are multiplying day by day.
Eww, that’s digusting that he’d try to flirt with you. No wonder you don’t like answering phones anymore. i wouldn’t, either, if that happened to me =/
Anyway, Happy Holidays!
That’s rather… disturbing.
I would have messed with him a bit though. Should have said you were a 85 year old woman.
Messing with the telemarketers is fun too.
Anyway, have a merry Christmas!
Yeah, that’s not creepy at all…
I will never understand why men do that: flirt with women they’ve got no chance with. Like the guys who honk at you as you walk down the street. Are they expecting you to yell out your number?
My voice is really weird on the phone (it sounds sad/tired - not seductive at all) and I still don’t like answering the phone
i think that also happened to me but since i am a quick-tempered/easily-pissed person, no such conversations occurred.
hahaha! XD
you must be traumatized with what happened.
Lol~ That’s a pretty interesting and funny incident. I would punch the guy if I were you. So many pedophiles these days, it makes me sick. blech~ I wish I won’t encounter something like that in the future (well, as if that would happen anyway. hahaha.) ^_^
