So I hate talking on the phone. Bad thing? Good thing? Input welcomed.

[Vice]

So I've started studying how to handle women again, and now I've found myself to really despise the phone.

I don't really like talking on it, because I often struggle to find things to say. But when I'm hanging out with a girl, we're always having interesting and profound conversations.

I now only use the phone to set up a date or hangout session, and if it's a first call after I meet a new chick, I'll talk for like ten minutes, then ask her out for a bite to eat or what have you.

I just can't stand sitting there talking to a piece of plastic when I could be doing other things, which include talking to her face to face.

Thoughts and opinions welcome. I'm not going to try to change my "phone game", I have better things to do.

Seriously, I'd like to now if this is a good idea or not.

I hate the phone either. So much that all my friends know they should not call me to the phone unless it's very urgent.
Just personal preference.

This is most definately not a bad thing.

The phone is an instrument of the devil, created for chicks, faggots and men of weak character. Use them sparingly.

If I pick up the phone to call someone, I have a list of things to talk about in mind.

I call them like this:

"Hi this is Desert Fox. I'm calling because of A, B, C."

Then I would go through A, B, C. When I'm done, I say bye and hang up.

If someone calls me to "chat" I tell them I'm doing well and I'm busy right now and I don't have time to chat. If someone calls me to whine about their problems I say, "don't worry, things will solve themselves" then I say bye I gotta go and hang up.



MY RULE: A PHONE IS A TOOL. NOT YOUR LIFE.

I started doing this...tell me this is AFC or whatever but it really cured my phone anxiety somewhat...

the problem I have with the phone is I never have a good reason to call a girl. It's almost as if I need to make up an excuse. Contrary to when calling a friend, I may have a question, want to meet up, whatever.

I started calling girls, random girls I number closed, had a class with, haven't talked to in forever, etc. As their number sat in my phone I would call them right when I was in bed, about to go to sleep, and as soon as they picked up I'd say "Good night"

They'd be like "what?" and I'd say "just called to say good night."

One girl even said "who is this" and I told her "if you have to ask then you arent ready to know yet." she then knew it was me because I had attended classes with her. We talked for an hour and 16 minutes that night.

Some girls are like "awwww" some girls are like "umm...ok" and one girl even started calling ME every now and then saying "i was lonely...and wanted to call you and say good night."

so basically by not giving a sh!t about what these chicks thought of me I'd call them to say good night and I learned a lot by doing it.

Bell would be rolling in his grave...

Alexander Graham Bell is most well known for inventing the telephone. He came to the U.S. as a teacher of the deaf, and conceived the idea of "electronic speech" while visiting his hearing-impaired mother in Canada. This led him to invent the microphone and later the "electrical speech machine" -- his name for the first telephone.

Vice: Yeah I do the same thing. I don't care for the phone. I like to plan things face to face. I use the phone for directions, and quick reminders after.
