Do You Wait For The Other Person To Hang Up First? |
|
Do you listen for their click? Or do you just hang up when you've both said "goodbye"?
Is there a rule? Perhaps it's the caller who should always be the first to hang up. Or maybe it's the other way around.

Okay... on three... we both hang up together. Ready? One.... two.... three! . . . . Still there? Yeah. Me too.

1. I just say Bye and hang up...But that's just me... |
|
And if it's my mom, most of the time I just say OK, she'll say bye, and I'll hang up. Sometimes there's other stuff I'm doing and I don't say anything throughout the whole conversation, just UH HUH, Yeah. OK, Later. And then I hang up. I say Later more because I just don't like saying Goodbye. Duckie

Just in case they forget something and say 'hey wait one more th...!' I don't wanna hang up on them.
You just reminded me to call someone. Thanks. :)

5. I hangup when I say "goodbye" |
|
No waiting for clicks, nothing like that.
"Goodbye" is goodbye. Then and there.

6. Ah, sweet memories of 8th grade, talking to my girlfriend, |
|
Susie. Endless calls. My folks were kind enough to get me my own phone line (which probably made their lives a lot easier, come to think of it).
Still there? Yeah. Me too. Okay, this time we're really gonna hang up. Okay. But I don't want to. I don't either. Let's just talk all night. Good! But my parents--- (Offscreen voice): Susie!? You have homework! I KNOW, mom! God she is SUCH a pill. Call me later, okay? But your dad...? I'll put the phone under the blanket and I'll pick up right away. He won't hear anything. Okay. You sure? Sure I'm sure. I miss you. Me too. See you tomorrow. Yeah! Goodni--- But you're gonna call later, right? Yeah. Just let me finish this geometry. Okay. Now I'm really hanging up. Me too. But you'll call later right? Yeah. I TOLD you. I miss you. Me too. Talk to you in, like, an hour. I HATE geometry. Me too. Bye. Bye...I miss you. Me too.

7. Rarely do I think about it. |
|
I probably hang up first most of the time, but everyone so often I speak with someone who I have trouble pulling myself away from and it does become an issue. :)
