Talking vs texting...what do you like better?

[Laz]

The tittle says it all. What do you like better? What do you feel most comfortable with?
and why?
Vote and give your opinion on the matter. For further info. I prefer talking.

PS: Talking= talking over the phone
texting= texting with a cellphone
......Just in case.

Talking, infinitely more. There are more subtleties that you pick up in this sort of human interaction, it's easier to pick out truth and lies, and it's just more.

Of course that's all opinion, I can see why "texting" could be applied to some of my statements and implications.

 

[MomentoMori]

I prefer talking, but I love texting too.

 

[tangerine]

I prefer talking because I like hearing the voices of the people that I care about. I sometimes babble incoherently or say things that I know are wrong and I feel stupid afterward, though, and because of that I prefer having discussions in text form, be it over the cell phone or otherwise.

I'm confused. What do you like better then? If u had to pick one, wich would it be?

Widespread announcements/extremely private conversations - texting.
Personal conversations - talking.

You put the third option on the poll. Is it really that hard to figure out?

 

[Delsan]

Talking. I suck at texting lol.

So neither, okay.

Yeah, that was kind of a "duh" question. Sorry, btw your username fits your attitude.

Tangerine is sour, just like you, old man. Do you get it now?
Okay, on with the thread.

How very rude of you. That was completely uncalled for.

Depends completely on the convo. I really don't want to call for some things that would only equate to a phone call lasting about a couple of seconds. And then there's the announcements you wanna make to a bunch of people; for example, I scored a 100 on my political science test last week and wanted to tell my parents, a couple of friends, and a few aunts. So I sent it as a mass text instead of calling everyone.

But when I'm talking to a special female friend, or just having a general personal conversation, talking it is. When I want to talk to my parents just to let them know how I'm doing or maybe wish a family member a happy birthday, a phone call just seems much more genuine.

So I can't pick either way. =/

talking.

herp

I prefer talking because I really suck with cellphone keys. And also, talking is just better. And also, I no longer own a functioning cellphone.

 

[Professor Ven]

Talking because I'm old-fashioned like that. Text when I feel like it, that sort of thing. Even then, I'd personally prefer sitting down in person and talking, due to body language being lost in both talking on the phone and texting, ergo, lies and deceit are harder to catch without body language.

And I make a lot of hand gestures, but that's just me.

 

[Katurian]

I like talking more than texting. Texting gets messy because people read too much into them

 

[Wintertide]

I don't have texting so I can only talk but I never call people because I hate my voice. If I had texting then I'd be on that all the time.

 

[bond of flames]

it depends for me
when time is relaxed and everything, i text
but if i'm rushed
or don't feel like texting long messages
i call people

 

[Decade]

I'm personally someone who enjoys hearing the persons voice.
So get this, on wednesday I saw one of my friends at the park. I ask them if they want to hang out with on wednesday, since I'm interested(ya dig?), and they said yes.
I took that as the confirmation, the yes meant it was happening.
Wednesday comes along, talk to that person in the hallway and they say that I never "texted" them about it, that we never made "plans."
The whole times I'm thinking "WTF?"
I mean how hard is it to just say "No I don't feel like it" really?
And then oh yeah they go and hang out with another person, I was ready to give up playing Black Ops(bought it on wednesday too) to hang out with this person! I was going to make them a commitment, but no.
Forget em.
