In Person vs. Over the Phone

January 8, 2016 10:46am CST
This is just my general opinion. I feel like not being able to see someone puts a strain on communication. When you aren't looking at someone face-to-face, it could cause some words to taken out of context or even a misinterpretation of someones mood. Although making a phone call or sending a text is faster, I prefer to communicate with people face-to-face.

I remember you saying this before. I don't have a choice in some instances and in others they are right here. I don't know a lot of people nor am I a social butterfly so it really doesn't matter in my situation.

I'm an awkward person, so for me, I'd rather just text you than meet you or call you and be tongue tied. :P

I agree with you friend, communication can be very flawed when you are not face to face. Tho I do not like to be around people, to get something important done, it must be face to face.

i also prefer face to face communication. I hate it when we sit in group and someone is using phone and not paying attention on group discussion.

Yes face-to-face communication is way better as you can see their facial expression and you are able to connect and engage a whole lot more. But technology is so advanced now you can always Facetime or communicate via Skype.
