I get bored of texting so fast

[ImTheDoubleGreatest!]

Well, I never thought that I'd be having this problem. But it gets annoying because if it isn't a group chat with lots of people spilling out various ideas, then I don't find others entertaining enough to continue a conversation with them. Not for long periods of time anyway. I think it negatively impacts my social life to be honest. Like even if it is a fellow bro, I just read the message and put my phone away till I feel like responding because it'll take them a minute or two before they respond back, and I'd rather talk to then face to face for 10 minutes rather than text for 2 hours. It can be a while before I actually respond sometimes and usually I'd rather just goof around doing random useless sh!t that I find fun and then respond back if I don't forget. Honestly, I've never really tried calling people before and maybe I should give it a try. But I know some people get a little bit weird about calling. I just don't like texting for prolonged periods of time though.

That's why I shut my phone off for a few days once a month.

I started emailing my girl half the time, and it's nice having two communication channels. You can have two independent conversations going and not feel that they or you need to reply to each except once in a while.

Only call if you both have land lines.

Try going a few days between texting.

I used to think same way. I realized they could be saying the EXACT same thing about me. Not their responsibility to entertain someone else.

They could say they don't like calling. Come on bro, you got to adapt to get things done. It's like you are sweating the technique instead of getting to the result.
