Ooooo this depends so much for me!

I have been diagnosed with a borderline autism spectral disorder, so sometimes meeting people in real life is difficult for me. It can be safer on the phone, because it cuts out some of the non-verbal communication that I struggle with. So when getting to know people, or if I have something difficult to try to deal with, then the phone can be safer for me.

Having said that, I do enjoy meeting people face to face too, it's just more stressful to start with.

:o)

Hugs,

Chris

I sometimes like the phone, but talking with someone face to face is nicer. But I can type my buns off in an email.

Thanks,

Hi Caly,
Like others have said, it depends on the situation. Sometimes I don't like the phone because I can't read the body language and facial expressions.

E-mail! I loathe the phone. And face-to-face isn't always practical.
