What would anyone say if a guy asks you "did you call my house phone last night to check up on me?"


I have called his house phone on numerous occasions, and this question kinda "took me aback"..


I was told by him it's a simple question and I read too much into it..


any thoughts?
I answer 'Why? Do you need to be checked upon?' And then after we (hopefully) stop laughing, if I did call him, I tell him so and lead the conversation into why I was calling him.

On topic: I know a few people like the one FruitaBu describes and I find them tiring to be around at times as I am one of those "just be" people myself..... Attention seeking behaviour is how I see it, and I have a low tolerance for that.

I think I finally realized it was attention seeking. At first I just thought he had really horrible luck or that people took advantage of him. But then, as circumstances in his life would settle in one area, a total new crisis would evolve instantly.

You are right. It was EXHAUSTING. I ended up having to even end the friendship because he was sucking the life out of me.

Personal experience so not scientific, introverts are the dramas. Extroverts have too many things in their bag of tricks to get attention.
My personal experience would suggest the opposite. Introverts tend to be ok without attention. I don't think I've ever met and introvert drama queen, to be honest. Well, maybe my neice, but you wouldn't know she was an introvert unless she told you, and most of her meltdowns come from getting overwhelmed by the demands of others.
