"I'll call you"

[renee10]

I don't say I will call you because I usually will use texting.

[bigedshult]

I say that and then for to get to do that

[cateyes1]

I dont even have a cell. nor do I feel the need for 1

The older I get I have found my time is precious.  It seems I'm trying to cram more and more into a day now than any other time in my life.  Texting is sufficient in getting to the point... phone calls can be so lengthy and drifted.  Thus taking more of my time.  Now I'm not a time snob.... if someone needs to talk I do everything I can do be there for them.

It seems like me.   I usually stated that when I meet someone that long time no see or not close.  Just a social statement for me.

What is the subject for discussion?
All you do is make an off the wall statement and you do this constantly like you don't comprehend what a forum is   Please wake up and smell the coffee, see a doctor, a psychologist, talk to a teacher, a friend because you definitely have problems if you can't understand a simple concept Have a blessed day.

I talk on the phone when someone else and I need to hear each other's voices.

[ancmetro]

     I use the phone only for important matters.

It appears everyone does it once in awhile. If you ever go on job interviews or see those dating shows, it appears that most people would rather be pleasant than to be blunt. They would say, "I'll call you rather than I really don't have the time to chat with you, etc.etc.etc." Maybe it is easier because it leaves them some room for you to call them then maybe by that time, they have the time for you. (I have no idea what goes on in other people's mind)

texting is another way we can get around this problem

[metsrock69]

I find I text more. It is quicker an easier.

I agree . I text more time than ever. I prefer it than talking

[ktheodos]

The mobile phone has changed our society forever.

Yup! So has the internet.....

[dsawan]

same here

I think  lot of people sleep with their cell phone and wake up with it in their bed.  Have you noticed on some of the tabloids where celebrities always, always have their phone in hand and water in the other hand.  You take their cell phone and their life stops.  It's crazy but there it is.  I often wonder what is in the bottle other than water.  JS.

Frankly, I think it is somewhat sad that people prefer to text over talking to a friend or family member on the phone once in a while.  Not taking the time to hear someone's voice, laughter, or perhaps pain is perhaps part of the reason for estrangement and loneliness in society today.  Also, not having the personal, human touch to things is possibly why we don't look at each other in a humane manner any longer, getting angry over the simplest things such as making a mistake in traffic. For example, some of the road rage incidents I've heard about are absurd. People are becoming so concentrated on a stupid cell phone and sending little smiley faces, but they should see what their own face looks like much of the time.  A smile to greet a stranger seems to be becoming a rare thing.  I am much more likely to see a scowl!
