Old School? And prefer to actually ring someone on the phone?
Who else is sick of this txting etc?
Always been complimented when I actually ring women they say it doesn't happen often and it shows confidence. |

A man I recently gave my number to rang me at 7.15 am. Then at 11.50 am and then at 10.35 pm. He often rings 3 times a day and we haven't had a first date yet.
I'm not used to conversing on the phone. |

That is weird to be fair. |

Both have their benefits and correct time to use them.
Not gonna bother calling someone to say "I'll be there in 5 minutes, be ready" however I will do that when I'm in the car. |

I don’t like phone calls unless pre- arranged, it somehow seems more intrusive than text.
I can answer texts at work or with my family, it’s not so easy with a phone call |

I'd say it was more personal than intrusive. |

I agree if it’s at a pre arranged time, I just don’t like random calls.  |

"I have a thing about talking to strangers on the phone so texting is ok until i know enough about someone so they don't appear so strange lol Yeah after you have met them generally."
But a lot of people insist on a phone call before they meet you... couples generally wont meet unless they have heard your voice...
My argument is how do they know its you and vice versa  |

You can identify a mans voice from a woman's voice. I think that is the idea. |

So you're not really old school...
You're just ensuring that it's not a man you are investing your time in |

It’s old skool OP! 
When I was younger OMG the bills I use to rack up. £140 most months.
Now it’s all about WhatsApp. You can voice message, video message or text.
Very rarely do I call anyone, even family. G x |

Would of probably got corrected by a grammar Nazi.
It seems like it's becoming a lost art. |

I'm old school in a lot of ways that provoke ridicule from some people. This is mostly because I'm old  .
I'll happily talk to people I know well on the phone but I'm much happier face to face or text with everyone else.
Don't ask me to drink water from a sports top bottle or use kitchen roll in place of a napkin though  |

That strikes me as a bit kind of odd. |

When pixels fail perhaps it's time to remember we are human, social beings, and meant to communicate in a human way.... |

I send emojis and that’s all my friends deserve. 
but then I end up with tiny humans scrambling for attention when I'm try to talk and that never goes well
