Same

I need more money and therapy

Please see my comment earlier about being too honest. Uhg.

Yes!!! listen phone etiquette is different these days. Don't leave me a voicemail unless you're a bot. I'll just assume your bot anyway. Text me. And if you want to call text to ask when is good. I literally get a pit in my stomach seeing a call. I immediately think someone died.

I'm older but most of my friends text to ask if it's ok to call . This way I can expect it and prepare to give my full attention when the situation needs an actual phone call instead of text.

I’m kind of sad to see this. Sure text is great for a lot of things such as simple communications and for getting things in writing. I think voice calls have a place too. Having the ability to hear, understand and express emotions, unspoken verbal cues and intonation is important. Two way verbal communication is a simple skill that avoid a lot of misunderstandings when understanding intent, care, and is helpful in maintaining and developing relationships and trust better than simple text.

Lol! I don't decline the call, I let it ring. But then I'm honest about it. "I get too anxious to answer calls, sorry." Simple as that. :D

is it 90% of communication is non verbal body language so speaking on the phone loses so much, prefer to speak in person face to face...by all means texting between two people puts them evenly communicating,no body language required (interesting what information gets stored in the brain after a "effective communications" course years later)

I don't understand why people text each other instead of calling each other. Calling is instant, the phone rings, you hear it, and you answer it. Texts might stay unnoticed for ages.

HATE the phone call!

As an introvert and a skeptic, I hate calls above everything else. Like, with text, you can literally prove what someone said when they dare to deny it. If it's deadly important, then sure, but casual calls?!?? 😱

Yup all day.

Also if it’s an unknown number if they really need me they can text cuz idk who they are

Send me a voice note and I'll 100% ignore it.

Self destruction can be fun to make fun of. I laugh at myself alot.

Childhood memories of me and my siblings laying down in bed when it rained hard, mostly the monsoon season back in the country, just laying there hearing the rain dropping on the roof, feeling that comfort, falling asleep, waking up and falling asleep again, happy times-happy memories

when you need sleep but the sleep dont need you 😘✌🏻 edit: why was i downvoted 😭

I just don't talk. It was drilled into my head as a kid. "Bitter, you're rambling. Bitter, please shut up."

I can't flirt either, I interrogate men to check compatibility

Second sleep is the best sleep.

that one person who you feel safe with >>

My family has a delusional view of me, so I do what I can to avoid them.

My anxiety won't let me argue via text for fear of a massive miscommunication.

that's for you to answer, Doc

Leaving home ruins my whole day

Or, I just want to eat my lunch in peace

I'll straight up ask. I've gone on several 1st-2nd dates and it sort of ended there. I'll attempt to ask what, if anything, turned them off. Red flags, etc. Honesty is a common complaint, I don't get it.

Some intros just don’t help the song.

Welcome to the club

"I am what I am."

People who show me new podcasts are important. People who show me to books are important.

Im 14 and this is deep

Missed a spot!

I sleep a lot because I’m really good at it. In fact I’m so good I can do it with my eyes closed

That never goes/ends well.

Depression do be that way.

I can handle your overthinking any day, I just can't handle my own....

Same. I hate that some phones do the "read" thing. I don't need you to know that I'm ignoring you.

I’m patting myself on the back because my old a**e actually can make all that out

Safe place/Happy place and my dog is there sometimes.

Omg is that what happened. I over healed!!

I miss the friend my ex was before we gut together

Depends on what the effort is for doesn't it?

welp, this seems to all be in order then

I'll be getting aloe vera for anyone that needs it.

yea, but it still hurts.

*See the other comment about romantic sh1t happening.

silence can be the ultimate expression of disgust

too late

Yup. Always.

Every. American. Every. Single. Moment. Of. Every. Single. Day.

Good one 👍
