Intro
These days, your phone probably doesn’t ring as often as it used to. But that doesn’t mean you have fewer friends. It’s just that they’d rather text than call. Wouldn’t you? Sending a text just seems so much more convenient, and you don’t have to waste time talking about things that aren’t important. But not everyone likes to keep in touch through texts. Some people still appreciate a good old fashioned phone call.
