Jumping for joy that it's not just me I absolutely hate making calls if it's not friends or family. Actually even some friends and family makes me anxious. When I was a kid I spoke reeeeeally fast and now as an adult if I'm nervous it starts up again. So it's a kinda catch 22 - if I wasn't nervous it wouldn't happen but thinking it might happen makes me nervous!
So DH makes most of the phone calls. He works a lot though so I'll do the ones I have to but if it can wait for him, then it does. I use texts heaps as well as email for official things. I don't seem to have a problem with answering the phone, I guess becuse they're calling me so I don't have to worry about explaining myself ITMS.
I worked in a doctors surgery for a few years where I had to man the desk and make/receive all phone calls which wasn't a problem either. Must be the professional mindset!
