It's commonly known that we're a species that likes to communicate with one another. In fact, it's probably one of the most important skills that we have. We've come a long way of finding ways to talk with one another, and there's so much to choose from that it's almost impossible to not have a way to talk to someone unless they're off the grid or not tech savvy with phones. I was curious what everyone's favorite way of communicating with friends and family happens to be. And why that is. [Questions are optional.]
What's your favorite way of talking to someone; Face to face, texting, over the phone, or other?
How often do you talk to your friends or family each day?
Do you like talking to others?
How often do you reply?
What app do you like to use the most for a form of communication?

Texting or email.
I have trouble talking over the phone because, I can't do small talk at all. Even if it's relatives, I get nervous. I want to hang up as soon as possible. And sit downs with anyone other than my immediate family or my boyfriend tend to not go so well. It becomes extremely awkward, when I have little to say about myself. I always dread the 'how are you?' and the 'what have you been up to lately?' kind of questions. xD

I talk to my mom the most during the day and evening. Everyone else in my family I usually leave alone unless I want to know if they need something or if they're doing okay. I talk to my friends from time to time. Not every day. I got too many friends. lol.
Do you like talking to others?
Honestly it depends wholeheartedly on my mood. I could go days without talking to someone, but I also like having someone to talk to each day. Kind of 50/50. And I don't like talking to strangers whatsoever. I'll be polite and say hi during walks outside in my neighborhood, but I really don't want to be pulled into a conversation against my will. Which has happened twice. I just want to walk outside in peace! lol.

*laughs for an hour*
I'm really bad about replying to a majority of my messages unless it's something really important. I'll still read the contents of a message, then forget to reply a few days or months later. (Or in this case, I have messages presumably from last year.) Usually, I'll try to respond as quickly as I can but, a lot of the time it doesn't happen. Whereas on Messenger, Discord, Skype, or Email, I'm a lot better about it? Don't get me wrong, I do care about the people taking their time to talk to me, but it's hard to do that, when I'm distracted by a ton else.
I'm equally as bad about it on the phone. Usually my phone is dead 50% of the time or I don't carry my phone 85% of the time. It's a flip phone and I rarely use it.
