Call Went to Voicemail

When someone doesn't pick up your call.

30-Second Summary

A call going to voicemail can feel like deliberate avoidance. Your brain jumps to "they saw my name and chose not to answer."

Key Insight

Most missed calls aren't intentional. People miss calls constantly - they're driving, in meetings, phone is silent, or they just didn't get to it in time.

Right Now

Leave a brief message or send a text. Don't call back immediately multiple times - that can feel overwhelming to the recipient.
