I'm not sure if you've noticed, but your significant other never wants to facetime. At first, you thought it was just because they were busy or had bad reception. But, now you're starting to wonder if there's something more to it. Here are a few things to consider if your partner never wants to facetime.
First, consider their motivation. Why don't they want to facetime? Is it because they're busy or because they don't want to talk to you? If it's the latter, then there may be something wrong in the relationship. If your partner is avoiding you, it may be time to have a serious conversation about what's going on.
Second, think about the last time you saw each other. If it was a fight or if you said something that hurt their feelings, they may be avoiding you because they're upset. In this case, you should reach out to them and apologize. Let them know that you're sorry and that you want to make things right.
Third, consider the possibility that they're just not that into you. If they're never initiating contact and they're never wanting to talk to you, it may be because they're not that interested. In this case, it may be best to move on.
If your partner never wants to facetime, it may be time to have a serious conversation. Talk to them about their motivation and see if there's something going on that you need to address. If not, then you may need to accept that they're just not that into you

I think she's camera shy. I only facetime with really close friends and even then I keep my face out of the camera. I hate being on camera. My face always looks weird. Just try texting her or just call her instead. I'm sure she's not trying to be a bitch, I think she's just afraid.
I hate showing my face on camera, I really don't like face timing not even to my family. Text her instead, or maybe an audio face time, most girls don't like faceime, especially if they don't look good that day.
She is scared to talk in voice with you and scared to show her face on camera because she doesn't want to be judged. She likes you tho so tell her you won't judge her and make her feel comfortable.
Tell her how you really feel about it and figure out the downside as to why she doesn’t want to.
Declining facetime requests depending may be a red flag. I have written about this story in another place. A friend from HS is a heart doc in North Georgia and has a son in his mid-30s now that is also a heart doc. To make a long story short the son's girlfriend whom he was engaged to was in Jacksonville Fl cheating on him. He has supporting evidence of the cheating but that first evening made a facetime request that she declined. He then sent her a text. I still have a copy of the screenshot. he told her to enjoy her trip, tell "dickhead" hello but decide on where she was going to live once she got home because they were done. About long enough to rid the room of all evidence of the man being in the room she sent him a facetime request. This young man to the best of my knowledge has never spoken to that female again. I'm not saying she is being dishonest, however, a facetime request that is declined MIGHT be a red flag (((((depending!)))))
Women are always playing some shitty mind games. Sounds like a real bitch to me... stay safe!

She is either self conscious about her appearance or afraid of having an unscripted and spontaneous dialogue with you where she cannot control the questions or prepare for the outcome ahead of time.
Are you "talking" or texting? If you've never heard her voice and she does not want to facetime, chances are she is a minor or a "he." If you have heard the voice and she refuses to facetime, she has likely misrepresented herself in some other way.
She's probably some guy in Nigeria or Pakistan who gets paid for scamming lonely dudes. Eventually she will say she has a family emergency and you need to wire her $500.
give up on ft and offer to do something else.
whatever her reasons, she isn't interested. best thing is to find out what she likes to do, and try to offer to do that with her.
Do not insist. Why do you want to FT her? Some people feel awkward with video calls. Meet her in person instead.
Maybe she's declining because she's not ready to facetime, like she hasn't showered for some time, oily skin, oily hair, in her used pajamas etc.
Some people just don’t like to be on camera, for a variety of reasons. As a solution, try to meet her in person instead of pushing the video chat.
She's most likely shy about being on camera with you. Maybe try sending each other voice messages first, then do audio calls while playing a game together, then try Facetiming, hopefully then she'll feel more comfortable
Let me ask the most basic questions first.
1. Is her phone capable to face time you, does it have the app?
2. Dose she continue to talk by voice only, as in not face time after saying no to facetime?
I never do facetime because I have self image issues... I know I'm good looking, but I have to use a lot of time and makeup to convince myself of it... Sometimes other people's decisions have nothing to do with you
maybe she thinks that she doesn't look good on FT
Don't force her. She might not be comfortable with that. Or maybe shy
Find someone you can actually meet.
Stop bugging her about this and just text her
So why can't you just talk to her?
move on sounds too fishy
she is not your girl she is with someone else
catfish
