The Intensity of Phone Calls in Dating

Phone calls can evoke a strong reaction when transitioning from texting to a more personal form of communication on dating apps. Many people find the idea of a phone call intense, preferring the comfort of a text conversation over the uncertainty of a voice interaction. This discomfort highlights changes in social norms, where some individuals would rather meet in person for a date than engage in a brief phone call. The discussion raises questions about how expectations in the dating landscape have evolved and what that means for effective communication.
