non-clicky poll

I have tried to make a poll but it somehow does not work when I try to make it.

Do you answer your DH/SO/FI's cell phone when they are not around?

a. yes, it does not matter who it is

b. yes, it depends who is calling

c. no, it is his phone and he can answer it himself

d. ss, please explain

TIA

    My DH always asks me why I didn't answer his phone if it was ringing. I usually don't unless I see it is family but he doesn't care if I do. I would find it weird if he got mad at me for answering.

    D.

    If I know what it's about and don't mind talking to the person, I'll answer. Same if we're in the car and he's not able to safely answer.

    Normally I just turn the ringer off so I don't have to hear it and I make sure he knows to call the person back when he finishes doing whatever it was that kept him from answering.

    Family or a good friend from out of town I will grab it, otherwise he can call whoever back.

    SS. DH has 2 cell phones. A work one and a personal one. If it's the work one no. I know everyone he works with, but I still won't answer that. They can leave him a message and he can get back to them when he has time. The personal one, it depends on who's calling and if I feel like talking to them.

    Nope, 95% of the time it's my mom or FIL. When they call my phone I hand it to him :)

    If its family or friends I'm close to I'll answer til I find DH. :)

    B: If it's someone I know and I know he'd want me to answer then I will.

    No, I have never answered his phone nor have I ever thought about it. I would tell him that is phone rang, though, and then ask who it was (since no one ever calls us, lol!)

    c - Usually if they are trying to reach him they'll call his cell first and then our home phone afterwards.  When they call the home phone I'll answer but I won't answer his cell phone.  I will tell him who's calling though or that it's ringing but that's it.

    Nope, I never answer his phone.  I hate talking on the phone, and it's usually his dad who talks forever, so I don't answer.  Even if it's someone else, I never answer.

    It depends on who's calling and what he's doing.  If it rings while he's in the bathroom, I probably won't answer it because I know he'll be able to call whoever it is right back.  So I'll just say, "I think your phone was ringing."  If he's mowing the grass or out for a run and one of our mutual friends calls or a family member then I'll answer and tell them where he is.

    No, because I most likely wouldn't want to talk to the person (I hate talking on the phone).

    And no, because I hate when I'm calling and someone else picks up and I have to talk to them (did I say I hate talking on the phone?).

    I have answered in the past when he's asked me too, but only when it was his mom or something. I really don't like it though, but I hate talking on the phone.

    Plus, I figure if they wanted to talk to me, they would've called my phone.

    His phone is work provided and pretty much everyone that calls it, I have no idea who they are, so no, I don't answer his phone.

    D. I answer it a lot when he's cooking dinner, I'll pick up say hi and then put it on speaker or chat for a minute while he washes his hands. There have been a few times I knew he was waiting for a call and I'll answer and tell them where he is, but if he's not in the same room I rarely answer.

    C.) NO- never

    I NEVER answer DH's cell because it's his work/ personal cell which is provided by work.  He never answers my cell, either, and I would prefer he didn't.

    If i know who it is and if i feel like talking to them. I don't even answer my phone all the time though! If I'm not in the mood to talk or i'm busy, they can leave a message. Same w/ his.

    No ... just like he doesn't answer my phone.   Plus, it's he gets work calls on his cell, so I don't go near it.

    I have a similar phone hatred.

    B. If it's someone I don't know, I don't answer it, then tell DH when he is around so he can tell me who it is. But if I know the number, I answer it.

    Only if it is NOT his mother - if its her I don't answer, anyone else sure I'll answer it.
  • Options
    No, but I usually look at his caller ID if it is nearby, just so I can tell him who called and determine if it is important enough for me to go find him. If it is too far away from me I don't bother.

    Ew, no.

    I hate phones.  Well, I hate talking on phones.  I love my iphone.

    No, I don't answer his phone. But I do ask him to answer mine if I am getting ready or something. He usually answers it and brings it right to me..... yeah that really helps, thanks! At least he tries :)

    No. It is his work & personal phone. He does not answer mine either. THey're not calling to talk to me, so if he isn't available he can just call back when he can. I will look at it if I'm standing near it when it rings to call out to him who it is but that is about it.
