Is your boyfriend in the closet or have a hectic work schedule? Is his phone for work only?

If "no" to all three, I'd break it off (I'm not you, so it's not a command, just what I would do myself). It sounds controlling and a little creepy.

It sounds to me like he wants a booty call rather than a boyfriend.

Don't jump to conclusions. he may simply be far more comfortable typing than talking and, not like to text due to the usually lousy keypads on cell phones.

Ask him to explain himself before you jump to conclusions and, maybe he will offer his number as a last resort contact only. Nothing wrong with that.

I'm not good talking, but wonderful typing, gives me time to think and phrase it right before I send it. I will talk, if "Hello... uh huh....okay...love you." is all you expect out of a 30 minute conversation. (okay not quite that bad but, I don't say any more than I have to over the phone. A little better in person, if I'm in the mood to talk and it's just me and my partner.)

There are lots of reasons people can be like that, find out if he is before you write him off.

I smell bullshit. Im sorry and I hate to burst ur bubble, but I've been through this before & seen others go through this. He's hiding something, coming out, secret bf, secret wife & kids. Ask why he's so stingy on the phone #. If he gives a reasonable excuse, consider pursuing, otherwise, drop his ass and try again with someone better.

Okay first ,do not jump to any conclusions.
The phone may be a shared one , he could be in the closet ,he may live in a situation where he has no privacy, he may have trust issues.

If I was you , I would ask him why.

I think ill just let it slide.... we talk everynight online.... so i guess it doesnt matter that much.... just wish i had it as another way to get ahold of him


Thanks everybody for the advice

If you are boyfriends, you deserve at least an explanation for his reluctance. As far as I'm concerned, a relationship without open communication is doomed. Be unattached to getting his number, but I would need to understand his reason.
