I really don't like for anyone to overhear my phone converstations... my boyfriend (when I have one) included. I guess I should clarify that. I don't like my in-depth converstations to be heard. A quick and simple converstation, I could care less. I try to respect other's phone privacy as well.

It's so hard for me to concentration on someone who really wants me to listen to what they are saying if I am distracted by other things and people. Even if I might share what was said to a boyfriend or friend later, I really feel like if you are having a serious converstation on the phone (or in person!), you should give the other person you complete attention if at all possible.

i don't care about quick convos either but when i'm shooting the sh*t with my family and friends, i don't tend to do it in front of anyone. he also walks out of the room when on a call to his mom or something, if it's just to catch up. obviously quick calls or something that involves him (like making plans) i let him sit there and be involved, but i always walk away when my phone rings regarldess of who is on which end. it's just a habit and nice to have some privacy.

If it just regualr conversations no.
I know my friends and family members, I know when they are telling me something in secret without even saying a word. I respect it too unless I want advice from the hubby.

It doesn't really make a difference to me.

I have no problem talking on the phone in front of my bf. Usually he will request that I go into another room because I am too loud. (I might interfere with the football game)LOL

I like my privacy in general, no exceptions.

I agree with most of the girls here... most conversations I could care less. Sometimes there are girly calls that you just don't want to say infront of anyone, not that it is a secret or anything.

Same here guys!

I will say that out of habit, I tend to usually walk away from people if I'm on the phone, so as not to seem rude. But it's really just a politeness habit thing, not a privacy thing! Most of the time I dont care, unless it's my mom or BFF and I need to b*tch about the boy, then obviously I don't want him hearing!

PS for some reason I think the pic with this post is really cute! She looks so happy on the phone!

i don't have a problem talking on the phone in front of my boyfriend. i usually end up talking to him about everything anyway so its one less thing to have to explain if he's in the room hearing it. the only time i would want privacy is if i'm talking about gift giving (surprises) and also sometimes my friends have private issues that they call for advice on or to vent and he wouldn't want to hear it anyway.

Quick conversations I don't mind, but I feel awkward having long talks with my friends while my boyfriend is home and because we're in a studio, it's not like I can go to another room in the house. For that reason, I usually save my long phone calls for when he's at work.

I like my privacy. If there's someone around, I feel like I'm "performing" for them or something, and my conversation is more fake than real. I don't know if anyone else gets that way?

Okay so I'm not alone in the walking away when I get a call? It used to piss my ex off when I walked away, he thought I had issues...

When it comes to friend's I like to be alone b/c you never know what type of conversation it may be! If a girlfriend is having problems with her man then I need to shoot the real to her so she can know what to do! Sometimes men hear what you have to say and think, well if she acts like that to her friend then she may do it to me! So I try to avoid that but sometimes he can throw some good advice when needed!
As far as family I can talk to them in front of anyone! I really don't like to shoot the bad thing's to my family unless it involves them! Other than that it should stay between me and that person! I feel my family has enough to deal with and plus I chose to be grown so I should handle grown up situation's like a REAL Women!

I like my privacy too.

Besides, how can I talk about him if he is sitting right there?

I don't mind it being in front of my SO, but I do mind everyone else. I trust my SO with my life and deepest fears, secrets and goals. I trust my family with my life, but I can't really tell them anything.

GScott pretty much sums up my feelings about conversations with my SO and family. Hehe. I can speak about anything and everything in front of or with my husband. The case isn't the same with my family. There are a few things I can't share with them.

If my mom calls I'll let her know my boyfriend is there just so I won't spend a lot of time on the phone while he has to sit there awkwardly and we chat about random nonsense.

in private if its a girlfriend! gotta respect the person you are talking to!

I stay for short conversations, but for long ones, I leave, mostly just because it's rude though (to the person your talking to and whoever is in the room), not because it's a secret conversation. I pretty much tell my guy what was said later anyway though, unless it's something a friend wants kept quiet of course.

pippins: I feel like that sometimes too! It's like I quit focusing on the actual conversation and more on the reactions of the people around me to what I'm saying.

Well I mean unless we are talking ABOUT him then I have no problem with him right there next me.
