<B>The Circumstances At This Moment </B>
'Ler has located 'Lee across the internet. Location is not perfect, however it is easily workable; We could make it an afternoon or whatever.
The big worry: fake female
So, think think think.
Proposed solution: The purchase of an inexpensive short-use long-distance pre-paid calling card. 'Ler sends 'Lee the numbers via [[ E-mail / Instant Message / whatever ]] and gives the 'Lee his own home phone number.
The 'Lee can call from anywhere and still not disclose personally identifying information, such as location or name. There is reason to believe that AT&T won't let anyone short of the FBI track down a one dollar calling card; besides, a payphone at a library or a mail center (and there must be 150 other equally indistinguishable places available for such a call) is realistically quite safe for all parties involved.
<B>Historical Circumstances</B>
'Ler has let 'Lee see him on webcam; multiple times. 'Ler has let 'Lee hear his voice across the internet during private chat as well.
'Lee has seen and heard 'Ler many times.
Chats have occured for months.
'Lee is pleasantly amused by 'Ler's text chatting, and is sufficiently calmed by 'Ler's voice (even complimenting the 'Ler on his speech and voice)
Chats normally last for more than 30 minutes, frequently over an hour.
'Lee has chatted with another female who is a TMF Friend of the 'Ler here; perhaps even two female friends (this hasn't been documented; all from human memory)
The 'Lee says that the phone card and pay phone thing is a good idea, and will make that call when there's an opportunity for it. The 'Lee Suggests that that time frame (i.e, the opportunity) for making such a phone call will be something like three or four months from now.
<B>The Suspicious Question</B>
If chatting for more than an hour is simple and easy, for more than half a year, why can't the 'Lee make a 10 minute phone call which won't cost any money nor have a trail back to any personal location or identity?
<B>Reality Questions</B>
Has the 'Ler given this enough time ? should the 'Ler consider this a good trial attempt which has produced no results ?
Wildcatters and oil companies spend millions of dollars and thousands of hours of work (very hard work) and leave behind dozens of zero producing wells. Eventually, they find oil. There is, however, a point at which they make the decision to leave a given attempt.
Is it time for the 'Ler to decide that a good job has been done, and this just wasn't meant to be ?
Is the 'Ler encountering a fake female ?
Is this a female who likes keyboard fantasy talk about tickling, and wants a different 'Ler in real life to tickle her ?
Or is this the time to invoke more patience ?

If you think she's worth the wait, for friendship or whatever kind of relationship you're going for, wait until she's comfortable. If you force it she'll feel awkward and neither of you will enjoy the conversation making her much less likely to want to call you again.
