Among Friends

Another no....only when necessary.

Not a "thumb text" user, but pretty quick with my keystrokes. I prefer to ask a quick question via text since the answer is usually a lot quicker, too (no need for the social graces!) when it's family or close friends. 

If it is going to be a real conversation, I always phone the other person OR ask them to call me (rather than use texts).

I'm like several of you.......I spent a career answering the phone in an office and would prefer email or instant message (facebook) to text or phone call.

I don't like texting at all.  I rarely do it.  I prefer e-mails.  Some people will not even respond unless you text.

Yes, all of the time!

@Sapphiregal I do text a lot.  Convenient and a time saver.  I have a sister who doesn't and prefers to talk on the phone, like hour long conversations.  That I don't like.  I spent a lot of time on the phone in my career and came to hate it.

I text very little, prefer a phone call or email!

[qualitygal]

Not at all.

In general I don't use my cell phone all that much.  I know shocking!  We do not have good conductivity at our home so at home I am only able to use my cell phone to facetime my DD.  Outside my home I use my cell phone for directions and playing music.  I only occassionally use it to text or make a call.
