You express what you are going to say more clearly when you are in a call instead of texting them, since there are no emotions in texts (excluding emojis)
I?ve always preferred phone calls but I mostly text anyway (because everyone else does). With texts I have a problem with being too lazy to respond at all and not responding very enthusiastically which can look rude. Phone calls are just more personal and I like calling a new friend and ending up talking for hours about the randomest things.
I rather to call people instead and only talk to people who are my family on the phone, but I don't have my own phone and I rather not to own my own phone anyways.
I hate calls bc anxiety so obviously texts.. most of the time ill just flat out ignore calls and then text the person and excuse myself by saying i was busy
It depends? Mostly texting since i can reply whenever i want throughout the day but if I wanna spend dedicated time with someone then I call. It's a lot easier.
Depends to be honest. My phone isn't all that great to begin with, so I don't even bother to text. I just call everyone. I only call people when it's necessary, so it's not like I call to BS.
I hate both, honestly. I hate having to interpret what someone really means, I rather just fact them, see their reactions and ask questions immediately and quickly. Also my social anxiety doesn't stop at texts.
