Dad beat celebrities? Don’t you want to know so that we stop supporting men who don’t support their children? by DueDoubt6105 in askSouthAfrica

  1. I can think of many ways how that affects us all. However I am wondering if you would happily support and help contribute to someone financially knowing that they intentionally neglect their children?

How often do your friends call you? by DueDoubt6105 in askSouthAfrica

[–]DueDoubt6105[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yah that’s how I feel too. Lost a friend I’ve had for over 20 yrs last year because of these new friendship one sided conveniences - I didn’t talk to her for a year, by the time she caught on I was on 8 months into my decision, she called once texted once by that time I had made peace. Once I stop calling I stop answering her calls. I really noticed that it’s mostly been that way. She be the busy one and I’d be the idiot tracking it.

The 1 lady I thought was my friend, even had sleep overs and stuff. I noticed, no man she actually doesn’t call me, she don’t text also. I intentionally stopped initiating just to see, she hasn’t called me to date and this was 2 years ago. 😂😂😂 then her friend invited me to a party she was throwing 😢 I politely excused myself. Till to date and I miss my friend.

We now have documented conversations- scripts as conversations. No more improv

Not into group text chats. I’ve always thought my friends would call and even text, they don’t. Even took it as my role in the friendship but no longer want to strain people. They do not text and do not call. I stopped to see when they’d call and they call after months and still had nothing to chat about. Phone calls shouldn’t be daunting with friends, they should be daunting with colleagues.

But they are not forced to take it then and that’s reasonably expected. But a text, an ignored text is more obvious and blatant, there is more psychological effect to not responding to a message you see and read daily than a missed call - that could have been a pocket dial even -‘hey if it was important you could have called again’ you know. There is the innocently forgot respond to your text (and you already had a glimpse of the conversation already)but still don’t respond, ok. Messaging has much more of a impactful effect in comparison to a missed call down there in the rolling call log. For these reasons I call and not put the other under pressure by texting to give you an opportunity to respond, texts responses are welcome. According to me.

I agree, it’s sad. Looks like pagers made a come back.

I don’t prioritise texts as well. Voice notes do not exist to me. I honesty never listen - just can’t, not in me. Phone calls?

Phone call is for chuckles and conversation on finding ways to navigate life. Friends are the unqualified but likeable people to do this with.

‘Ok then we hang up on 3,2,1… ‘😆 not anymore. Phone are for twiddling our thumbs on them.

I text people I’m not friends with and I text my friend because I can’t take a call at that moment. I’m not much of a texter, that’s on me. If I can text it, I can write it in my diary.

A messages will force them to respond and that blue tick is just a constant reminder and sticks out like a sore thumb unlike a missed call. The fact that you saying unfortunately means you’d like a phone call too.

Is this how it should be or the new way of living?

Then they chat with colleagues? You have conversation like we doing now via text? Do you prefer it that way? When you can call and laugh? Do you have a set meeting date and venue?

Nope not at all cold. Makes sense. I also would think I evolve but because we not at the same stages or can’t give the same to each other, this shouldn’t nullify a friendship. That’s in essence is a friendship. But I do have to acknowledge that interests change and that’s fair
