General Chat! [v7]

I know, right? It's like, "Well, it was nice talking to you," and they're like, "Uhu," then awkward silence follows....

EXACTLY!

And then if you hang up first they call you back or comment later saying the had something else they wanted to add! But why couldn't they have said that in the awkward silence!? It's just so frustrating XC

...That's every time my aunt calls... Literally...

I tend to get more texts then phone calls.

Jokool, does your aunt call often? I'm not sure if I could deal with having that happen to often to me. I see most of my friends/family often enough that they don't call me often. That and most of us have exchanged emails.

She calls almost every day...

Oh wow, that's really often :S I don't think I've had anyone call for me in months, how do manage it?

Usually by handing the phone to my grandma...

Oh XD I guess that works, forcing other people to talk is a great way to get out of conversations, I use it when my Dad is out of town.

Yeah, it's how I survive...

Ready for the worst advice ever?

When you absolutely have to talk to somebody and probably won't ever see them or talk to them again, don't think of them as people and suddenly talking becomes easier

Making friends becomes tougher so don't use the trick Willy nilly

...you are the last person I'd expect to say that, Lux.

Hoe do you not think of them as a person...

Unfortunately, I have to talk to my aunt all the time, so it's kind of impossible to not think of her as a person... Grandma is usually busy with something, so I have to answer the phone when it rings...

...Like this morning when I was woken up by the phone ringing...
