Oh god yes. I have wondered for years why I would much rather email than talk on the phone. I don't even enjoy the weekly act of calling my elderly parents. Once I have them on the line I am OK, but the hour or so that I am anticipating the call is rather taxing on me.
I am so glad I am not alone in this. I have just assumed I was a "nut", but now I know a lot of us are "nuts"
The fear is real! I've had a problem with phone calls most of my life but more so with phone calls that are somewhat open-ended (not a particular thing that needs to be discussed to accomplish a goal) because of the fear of awkward silences.
Exactly how it is for me!
I can't stand calling people to set up an appointment. Can't wait till Google Duplex releases, AI that will call and set up appointments for you.
What is Google Duplex?
