This is a topic I’ve wanted to write about for a while.  Everyone has a opinion on what they think is the right or wrong way of doing it. One of the most important things in a relationship is communication.  No one will disagree with that statement.  It doesn’t matter if it’s a friendship or a romantic relationship, communication is key.  It’s 2008 and people still bitch about communication.  Why?  It’s because they don’t like the results they get.  There still are those old school women who are offended by modern technology and communication.  Yes, I call them old school.  Technology has given us computers, laptops, plasma TVs, cellular phones, and much more.  They own all of these products and get offended by someone sending them a email or text message.  Do they equate a tech message as a lack of interest or respect?  I’m not sure.  I wonder if they prefer the postal service over email.  I’ve heard the argument that it’s about how much energy it takes to make a phone call.  When I get a phone call it shows they are interested.  I’m sure 100 years ago, people still wanted to get letters in the mail instead of a phone call.  Times have changed.  Technology has changed.  Of course, we still have many options available to communicate.  There are times when a text message is suitable and then there’s other times when a phone call would be better.  I will admit, I like to text.  I enjoy emails.  They are easier to respond to.  I can reply when I get a chance.  If a woman is long winded, I will limit my phone time with her.  I can convey basic thoughts through text or email.  I will convey more personal thoughts either in person or via phone call.  The fact is I communicate.  There are also those women who do nothing but talk on the phone all day.  Those are the ones who are happy to have a ‘one’ rate phone plan.  A simple hello turns into a 45 minute phone call about everything under the sun.  If you’re a busy man, this woman will drive you nuts.  You will spend most of your time sending her phone calls into voicemail.  Why?  Because you know that you don’t want to be rude.  It’s much easier to listen to the voice mail or call her right before you are walking into a meeting.  Yes, this happens.  Do you always get a call right before he has a meeting?  Then you could be that woman.  My point is technology gives us options and choices.  This is 2008!  We have so many choices to use to say what we feel, why be mad because it’s not your preferred option.  I’m sure while reading this some has called you, text you, emailed you, or even yahoo’d you.  Be thankful some one is thinking of you.
