What I hate is the expectation that I am to be on standby for whoever calls me. All the time. Fuck that. Send a letter. Show some respect and have some patience. Communication with me is not a right. I'll not respond when I think its not important. And if you call me allot, it's never important. I do however get the heart attack feeling every time you do call.

I only call my friends and family if it's time sensitive or urgent.

A phonecall is so much nicer, quicker and leaves a lot less room for misunderstanding.

I don't like shot-messages-communication, especially not when it's a delicate topic.

And yes, I'm old, and an extrovert.

For me a phone call is for when a text might be misunderstood or you need to gauge the mood of the person you’re communicating with. For everything else, text is more polite, accurate and convenient for both parties.
