Not at all.
Me and my boyfriend spend tons of time together, but we still don't answer each other's phones.
First, it started that I just didn't let him answer my phone but I could answer his. The idea of having my family, or acquaintances call my number and having a male voice answer is just not right for me. Everybody in my life knows my boyfriend, but I am just not comfortable with having a man answer my phone. It's leaving too much room for assumptions.
Then, after a while, he felt that it wasn't right that I could answer his phone but he couldn't answer mine. I couldn't really argue with him, so we decided that I wouldn't answer his phone either. It just wasn't worth fighting for, to me.
Now, on occasion, I'll pick up his cell phone if I see that it's one of his close friends whom I know well, and he'll do the same with mine. But, neither of us makes a habit of answering the other's phone and that works fine for us.
