Why do I hate talking on telephones?

Question:

I absolutely hate talking on the phone. I avoid it like the plague. Really, I do. Any ideas why this is?

Answers:
It's a proximity or personal space issue.

I get this way too, because well, what happens when you talk on a telephone? You have this *thing* right in your face, right on top of you, and this *voice* right in your ear.

It is a case of someone's voice coming at you from *way the hell too close*, I mean, when you chat with someone in real life, do you both conduct the whole conversation by *whispering in each other's ears*? *rofl* :)) And a lot of folks don't help matters by talking on the phone *way too loudly* like it's still 1899 or something. O_O

So congratulations....consider yourself *normal*, one of the select few who looks at all these people on the bus or in the cashier's line at the grocery store yammering away on their cell phones and just *shakes his head*. ;)

Seriously. This isn't a serious issue. You're not the one with the problem, everyone *else*, all the other people who are too attached to their phones, *they're* the problem.

I do too. It's because it's BORING. I hate to even pick up the phone when it rings. If it's a friend (even a friend I really really like), I just know that we're going to be on it for 30 minutes at least, and that's 30 minutes I'll never get back.
