So when you "just want to talk" you call someone out of the blue and just expect them to stop what they're doing and have a little chat? I had a friend like that and I hated it because they always called at the worst moments so I wouldn't pick up and then they assumed I disliked them and played the victim by a mutual friend. That's when I actually started disliking them. So don't randomly call people please thank you.

Also texting someone instead of talking isn't antisocial behaviour. You can say as much in a text as you can say in a call and the other person can reply to your text and continue doing what they're doing at the same time.

You absolutely cannot say in a text what you can in a call

You can multitask while texting, true, but that is antisocial. Social, is having a conversation.

Only when you are illiterate can you not say in a text what you can in a call.

If you think that's true then you are self roasting your own conversationalism.
