Sometimes I refuse to respond to any of my calls especially when i feel they are calling only to gossip or to ruin my day or to be ridiculous ... I prefer texting & i do it a lot... well i do answer few of calls when i feel they are important.
So is this normal because when they asked me why you didn't answer i just say nothing or lie about it
The thought of talking on the phone makes me feel sick, i have such a phobia of it! It makes my anxiety hit the roof!!!
I will come up with any excuse to not answer the phone!
I have a phobia of talking on the phone so, I rarely if ever answer it. My favourite form of communication is email. However, I think some of my peers view this as being very strange... I'm not even fond of texting since it is so easily to make spelling errors. (Ironically, I am writing this on my phone.) I don't do video chatting. I once had this friend who when she found out that I too had an iPhone 4, insisted that we engage in FaceTime. That really scared me, because what if she wanted to FT me at an really inopportune time? In the past when friend's would call me while I was at home, that really would put me on edge. I was terrified that someone would overhear the conversation or that I was going to be called at the wrong time. Then, there was the issue of having to put on airs and trying to make my life sound interesting even though interesting things would realty to happen to me. Actually, this is still a problem for me now. I also worry about potentially making an ass out of myself. This has sadly been problematic for me when having to call doctors or something else that is of importance.
I think calls are a more efficient way of communication but each to their own
me too.. i feel the SAME way! I think that texts are better bcuz the person can answer at their convenience. Not like the phone call that you have to answer right then.
Due to social anxiety, I rarely answer my phone. Even when my best friend calls, I don't answer. It's completely normal to not want to talk on the phone.
