Tyler CP 4

It has been a bit difficult getting in contact with this one particular conversation partner of mine. On top of this, it was incredibly awkward meeting when we did . Because of this, I assumed my partner wouldn't be interested in meeting, he seemed so uninterested. I've let it pass for a while now but wanted to give connecting a try again. This time instead of using text messages to communicate, I called. As the phone rang I grew nervous because I didn't know what to say. When he answered I kept it basic; "how are you doing".. "I know we haven't talked in a long time...." To my surprise he was friendly. At first he was uncertain of who I was, so treated me as such, but as soon as he recognized, he was very warm. We talked about how hectic things are getting now with upcoming test. Something I could relate to. He said that he would be going home in December and wasn't too sure if he would be returning to Tallahassee. Although I was concerned about this, I was happy that I called. I am hoping to see him before he leaves.

  1. Must have been nice breaking the ice! I've heard similar stories about conversation partners being reserved and held back. It was definitely a great move jumping right in with that phone call. And I can understand his inability to be reached if he's been busy. There's nothing as hectic as feeling like there's not enough hours in the day and days in a week. I hope you guys can meet up and help him relax before or after his big test. Good Luck!
