Same. I used the phone before there were other options, but I always hated it. I don’t like being able to hear someone but not see them. It gives me anxiety.
Most likely I’d make plans face to face. I have spent too many hours on the phone with loved ones, but that’s usually planned or expected. I don’t like picking up the phone if I don’t know who it is, and even then I’d often rather avoid. Just send me a message please instead.
I would just talk with my best friend who lived like 3 houses down for hours about nothing. And we would do dumb shit like play Mary had a little lamb with the touch tones, or play songs from our radios to each other lol
Genx and haven’t liked to pick up the phone my whole life

“This is what your voice is saying… but what is your face saying right now?!”
How did you make plans with friends before cell phones? You never talked with a boyfriend or girlfriend for hours on a landline?
That doesn’t mean they liked talking on the phone.
