CMV: Communication through text alone is highly ineffectual compared to phone calls (particularly video calls)
I was genuinely pleased when I first received a cell phone that could easily text (blackberry pearl). But as time went on, I tried calling anyone I wanted to speak to much more than I would ever text them, even for quick inquiries. I understand that sometimes texting is simpler especially if one party is actively busy and can only jot off a text or 2. But even on the social media landscape, it’s becoming more and more impersonal. I don’t understand how people can continue on this trend and not notice severe consequences to their psyche
