Phone Phobia

[Kaydee]

... I definitely feel like a fake adult most days but being on the phone amplifies that haha.

Yep. This is how I feel.
I hate the phone. What makes it worse for me is I live in a foreign country... Although my language skills are passable in most situations, I get so anxious on the phone I forget everything and sound like a complete idiot. So I usually just let the answering machine get it and get DH to do the calling for me.

What's wrong with us (me too)? Reading these comments I couldn't help but chuckle because seeing it in writing it seems ridiculous.

I have always flat out refused to answer the phone at work, I've even let it ring out rather than answer it. At home I'm good to answer calls but not I hate making them. I can call my family, but not friends. I actually hate talking to friends on the phone.

I'm so glad email and texting was invented.

After posting here I got a call I didn't want to answer but had to or I would had to have called back and I also had to call and make a booking for dinner tomorrow that should have been done last week.

Ahhhh, I have my phone preadmission interview with the hospital today... already freaking out... they say it should only take 20mins and it is the same Private Hospital as last time so I sort of remember what it is all about >.> I can do it, I can do it, I can do it.
