My ex-boyfriend used to tell me that Emily Post says that the one placing the call is the one to end the call. Therefore, even if we had been talking for 45 minutes, and I now needed to go do something else, it was rude for me to say, "It's been nice talking to you. Thanks for calling."This same boyfriend thought nothing of having another attractive single woman (whom he'd been in love with in the past) spend overnights at his home---in the guest bedroom, of course. He always had his "reasons" to help her out this way, even though I was very threatened by the situation. He was only thinking of her, he'd tell me. I shouldn't feel so insecure. I wonder what Emily Post might say to that etiquette of his.
