If you wanted someone, who already does lots of favors for you, to do you another favor, would you call and say..."I need a favor, so call me back" or would you tell them what you needed since you were leaving a message anyway?

It depends.

How complex is the explanation of the favor?

She never asks for any complex favors; just ongoing, time consuming stuff, like run to the store for me, give me a ride, take care of my dog, bring me some Chinese food, and etc. She doesn't have a car.
I just don't like to be caught off guard and put on the spot. I didnt call back this time. I'm too tired.
As stated, it depends on what you're asking for.
If it's to help pull your car out of a ditch and you need his 4x4 you'd tell him as it was urgent.
If it was to move you might tell him the date you need some help but not all the details.
If you're a swinger and you want to nail his wife while he nails yours you'd probably want him to call you back so you wouldn't ruin the surprise by spilling the beans all at once.

Oh, I thought you were contemplating asking a favor of someone else. Yeah, I don't blame you for not calling back. do they have some emotional string they know how to pull?

I could be wrong but I think she knows I'm just all favored out and its harder for me to say "no" or come up with an excuse as not to cause any hurt feelings when they actually have me on the phone.
So...I was just wondering if some people might hold off on asking for the favor because its harder to say "no" when you're actually talking to them that moment.
I wouldn't ask in the first place.

Teach a man to fish and you'll find him drunk in a boat asking you to get him some chinese food.

I hate you. What was the question?
I would simply say" You've done so much and I hate to ask, Can you please call me back ?

You're such a great person. I'm sure you'd never want anything in return for your precious time.I could be wrong but I think she knows I'm just all favored out and its harder for me to say "no" or come up with an excuse as not to cause any hurt feelings when they actually have me on the phone.

I don't want nor do I need anything in return from her. If I needed someone to do something for me, I wouldn't have any problem telling them exactly what I needed on their voice mail.

Of course you don't. You are a Saint. All praise you and your all forgiving all loving nature.
Yeah, I would just tell them what I needed. If it was very important/sensitive info, I would get that point across as to why I didn't want to divulge on an answering machine. If it was just "I need a favor, call me back.", I don't blame you at all. I wouldn't want to call them back either.

Look jerk. If I was going to keep asking someone for favors I would at least have the guts to say what I wanted. It gets annoying after a while.
Hey...would you quit cussing me out in spek, you freakin angel?
Here's a secret...nobody cares about your so-called bs problems, ok?
