I hate talking on the phone!

Seriously, James is the only person in the whole wide world that I want to talk to on the phone (or Tman, I guess).  My mom calls and I answer just because she will freak out if she can't get a hold of me.  Everyone else, it goes to voicemail (unless it's Tman's school or wherever he is).  My sister called a while ago, and I sent it straight to voicemail.  I know it's rude, and I am reasonably close with my sis.  I just HATE talking on the phone.  Send me a text or email.

Am crazy and alone in these feelings?

ETA:  We also recently switched our cell plan to pay as you go, so every time someone calls me, it costs us (ends up being cheaper at the end of the month because we still don't use our phones much besides texting).

TTC #2 for a million years: SA normal, CD 23 bloodwork shows nothing amiss, ovulation detected. Next step: ? maybe CD3 bloodwork to check eggs? All out of pocket, so limited IF tests/treatments.

Re: I hate talking on the phone!

  • Not crazy at all. I also hate talking on the phone. Most of my family knows and doesn't take it personally, and they tend to email me instead. Nothing against them, I just don't like talking on the phone.

    I think my friends are all the same way, because we only email/text/FB each other.

  • when it comes to something quick and simple, i prefer emails/text...but if it's "just cause", i love talking on the phone. i do it probably once a week. i have a few people that are on my go-to "call" list that i'll call and just chat for 10 or 15 mins and rotate between them, so the other person doesn't get an over-dose of chatting..since nobody likes to do it except me haha.

  • I prefer the phone because it's faster and I'm impatient :)
  • I talk to my mom on the phone daily. But other than her or DH when he's OOT. I have no desire to talk on the phone and it annoys the hell out of my BFF.

  • I talk to my parents on the phone often and DH about once a day. Other than that I don't like talking to anyone!

  • I HATE talking on the phone/making phones calls to strangers/services, etc. Otherwise, I don't LIKE talking on the phone at all except to very, very, very few people and even then I put it off as much as I can.
