How long are your phone conversations?
If I talk to a couple friends that I've met on-line, they can usually go an hour. Otherwise, I don't talk very long on the phone.

I talked to my sister on the phone for well over two hours yesterday. If I talk to friends on skype, well, how long is a piece of string?

Oh, way too long. With my sister, it can be 2 hours twice a week.
My best friend, 20-40 minutes. My mother the same.
Others, all depends on why we are calling each other.

Not long. I hate talking on the phone. I'm always distracted by the kids and I just don't enjoy it.

If it's one of my two sisters, or my two daughters or a couple of my best girlfriends, our conversations can go on for up to two hours. With everyone else, I'm pretty much all business--five minutes or less.

I try to get off the phone asap. I don't like it when people call me just to chat about nothing. My sister is bad for that. She'll call me with nothing really to talk about and there's always these silences. I don't like the phone at all. I'd rather chat with people in person....or online

It depends. Some days, I will tak for over an hour when I am working at home (fold laundry, wiping out the sinks, etc.). Some days, the phone doesn't even ring!

It depends but it can be a long time!!
I talk to my Mom 2 times a week and usually for 30-60 minutes each time. I have a good friend here in town and we might talk to each other 2 times a day for an hour or so and then go days and not talk at all. I think the most time I have spent on the phone is with a certain member here and we can talk and talk and talk.........a few hours of talking!!
I would do it more often if we lived closer too!!

I'm not big on talking to the phone, most of my conversations are short and to the point unless I'm talking to Kat

It depends on who I'm talking to. Sometimes calls can be more than an hour, sometimes very short. I also have a sister who will call to chat, then yell at the kids, get distracted and we get weird silences. I figure if I have to have the thing growin' off my ear, you had better be talkin' LOL
I'm feeling much less guilt about our long distance calls now that I have a flat rate long distance plan.
