Because I'm profoundly Deaf and self-conscience about how I might be percieved on the Phone.
Anyone that knows Me well r/t, will quickly say "Fuck that, getting hym to talk more than 2 minutes on the phone is a Huge accomplishment"... Always been that way...g/f wanted to get in touch? Visit...or write. Which shocked the ever loving shit out of Everyone when I kept hijacking my relatives Cellphones to talk with o'Queery until almost sunrise, almost every day.... At one point, I got teased..."U can't make fun of me now, you're worse, at least I eat & sleep !" :huhlaugh: Other than that, unless it's really important, I loathe phones, my local DMV has a TDD, so that might help in the future... Social Workers, Case Managers, Shrinks, all of 'em ask whoever's talking for me to get me to Verbally say it's ok for them to discuss my Case/appointment.. All I say is "OK!!" That's how much I try to avoid the phone.....unless it's o'Q :fallenangel: |
I don't like to talk on the phone really. However, when I talk with long-time friends that live in other states or countries, I do talk for at least an hour and maybe more. My closest friend in Seattle (I'm in CA and we have known one another over 35 years), talk for 1-2 hours about every 3 months or so.

I, too, dislike talking on the phone. Some of it, like others have said, is related to hearing issues. What is really evil is voicemail. I hate listening to it. Most times I call the person back cause I don't want to listen to voicemail. Which then elicits: "Did you listen to my message?" "No. Tell me what you said." This usually is a conversation of me saying, "What did you say?" I am not asking cause I am not listening, I am asking cause I can't hear you, physically.
Toughy never leaves a message, I see a missed call and I call her back. I dunno what it is but I have never liked chatting away on the phone. |
Hmm really depends on who it is. In generally it is quick and to the point but sometimes it can be lengthy. Also depends on my mood. Geee...I can't sleep who can I call and wake up right now LOL

I hate the phone! I guess it all started when I once had a job that required me to be on the phone all day. I am more of a visual person...love to see body language and facial expressions.... I want to talk in person!
I have my conversations with friends and family by internet or texting on cell phone if I can get away with only that! Living out of country and long distance calling is way too expensive for a casual chat session. |
One of my jobs is talking on the phone. I'm not much of a phone talker, however every now and then I'll get on with an old friend and we'll have at it. Even still 20-40 min. I'm also not much of a chatter and this drives some of my friends nuts. I'd much rather write emails or letters. I'm up really really early and my mind is active and filled with lots to talk about. By 4pm I'm starting to get tired, my brain less active and more into chilly. If I'm with someone we're more likely sitting on the front porch sipping wine and listening to music.

I am so not a phone talker. No. I like real time much better. :grindevil: |
