lol, yes indeed... Recently I've just had it totally unplugged. Much better that way and I don't get messages from people who expect me to call them back...

Phones should be abolished. I often don't answer the phone when I don't feel like talking - it's like someone bargeing into your house at any time of day without asking permission. I'm not too keen on SMSs either as people expect an instant reply. Also I either want to say lots and there isn't the space, or - under time pressure - I say the wrong thing and my BF (another one who doesn't like using the phone) then doesn't reply. That's probably why our relationship is failing. Crying or Very sad

I not a fan of the phone myself. The whole process of answering and saying goodbye is such a hastle. When some good conversation starts to roll off the tongue it gets easy. I've never easily gotten that far. Good thing is though is that if there ever is silence one of you has to notice and say something eventually.
