When it comes to people communicating through the phone to you. do you prefer calling or texting or email?

I prefer texting over calling. Calling disrupts the receiver... they have to stop whatever they were doing to take the call, while they can read and respond (if necessary) to a text when they want. Best is to send a text to someone and have them call you.

Overall I want to talk face to face with someone.


When I can’t, l prefer texting. This way if my communication isn’t an emergency, that person can get back to me at their leisure.


I don’t want someone to feel as if they must drop what they are doing to answer. I certainly don’t want them talking to me while they are driving. Or to possibly cause their phone to ring at an awkward time.

I prefer texting mostly coz I can't talk to my partner openly at my home as they r very strict. Whenever I miss him very much we text each other while staring at each other in video call. Except my partner I feel very uncomfortable in calls with my relatives like I don't know what to talk to them besides hello hi how r you did you have breakfast or dinner bla bla 😁😁

Completely up to what's being transmitted. Long, detailed explanations, jokes, stories, recipes, fun: call. Just the facts, text. Photos and non-time-sensitive material that requires thoughtful responses, email.

I think calling and texting both. have their place, sometimes one makes sense sometimes the other. If in doubt I would suggest starting with a text. Calls require you to focus on talking on the phone which may not be welcome sometimes, however for something important it's usually better to talk, it is faster than texting from the time you start to the time you are done, vs texting kind of spreads it out over more time usually.

I don't like email, I guess it has its uses for sending things like a document or whatever but most emails I get are useless or annoying. Also I am mostly likely to get weird messages from guys by email, like a guy who had a crush on me in grade 5 and waited until we were in our 20s to tell me or a guy I went out with one time several years ago who would like to try again, or a secret admirer creeping me out with a fake name and email address. Maybe it's just me but I get more stuff like that in email than in text for some reason.

I perceive email as kind of 80's shit. I only use it when other ''suppliers'' don't offer enough volume for large attachments.

Phone calls are annoying, because meanwhile no one is left who tolerates that I might sit on the toilet, or have sex right now.

Texting is garbage as well, but it's the lesser evil still. For now.

Calls or email only, and I have texting disabled on my phone.

If someone is too lame to actually open their mouth and speak to me, whatever they have to say can't be very important.

[Nikki1989]

I see a lot of people on here struggle with the concept of real communication. Sad.

Texting is cool. If I never had to use my voice to speak to another person over the phone again I would be content.

Text first, unless we're close, then calling is fine. I take calls from my brother, sister, child, and wife.

[Simslover92]

I prefer to text unless it's my boyfriend who kind of makes me talk on the phone lol

[Marcuslrh]

Texting helps with me remembering the conversation but I hate waiting for texts so like to call

[strraku]

I never prefer cam, always have light issue cannot change position and have to make myself properly visible to other person

[Yannishka]

I prefer texting so I can answer when I have time, I have my hands free if I'm too busy.

[Drumlin2001]

Texting usually. I prefer video calls to phone calls

[DancingQueen16]

I like texting because I'm not very good at holding conversations through phone calls

[Guido]

Nothing beats a real conversation. Texting and emailing have their place but not for having discussions.

[kellytheman]

I honestly like calling but I am old fashioned lol.

[Riverdog]
