Telephones, Emails and Capricorns

Why are we SO bad with these two forms of communication?
Well, at least I am -- I'm terrible with it. When I am busy, I can text people without a problem (Big Grin)but I can't talk while doing stuff, not unless the person is in front of me lol. Instanting messaging is even cool but if I'm busy, I simply avoid talking on the phone LOL! My friends want to kill me ...
I am slightly better with email but I'm terrible with phone calls. Its better when people leave messages because at least I know what but its still hard for me to call them back.
I guess its because I can't do what I need to do if I'm running my mouth on the phone ...

I dont know if it's a Cappy Thing, but Im crap at Multi-Tasking.
I get distracted very easily, then forget what i was doing, or how much ive done Sad
Im perfect when im focusing on just "One Thing"
Ive been in the middle of doing an email, then the phone rings, i get distracted and end up
sending off the email without all of the info that was supposed to be in it.
Is this a Cappy Thing, or just me smile
I guess I am an exception to the rule because I have no quams about talking on the phone or emailing. I am very good with both, but have been prone to misscommunicate myself from time to time.
For the record no one can technically multi-task. Mutlti tasking can lower IQ and decrease memory function.
So Cappies ... what are your communication habits when in a relationship?

Females are more apt at multitasking than guys. However, being a female I know exactly what you are talking about! I just CANNOT multi-task, seriously, I suck at it!!! My girl friends hate me for that, lol. 'Cause I just can't be talkng on the phone and be doing something else....
"when i'm not stressed, i like to talk about sweet nothings mixing with daily updates while huggaros, cuddlaros and snuggaros lol."
I see, so your man has to do his best to keep you unstressed. I guess Winking
"If I am into someone I always have time to talk to them. If I am not into someone I always find ways to avoid talking to them."

Interesting

"Cause I just can't be talkng on the phone and be doing something else...."
That's a good thing!
hahahah Ray, looking for a special cappy one?Tongue
TongueTongueTongue ... Capricorn and special are synonyms Sarasa.
multitasking.. umm my bf does that. he will reply fast when i text him even when he's busy with work.. and he complains when i reply late lol.when i'm doing my work, its hard for me to focus on anything else. my close friend is a cappy...she likes talking over the phone and can do that for hours smile
When I was in high school I would wake up with the phone next to my pillow. Nowadays I can't stand talking to someone on the phone unless it's someone I haven't talked to in a long time or I'm organizing something, planning something...I do a lot of phone work at work, maybe that has a lot to do with it. Usually I text my friends because it saves time and gets to the point.
yup yup, we are special RayBig Grin

HAHAHAHA!
Well, I think I have an answer for you smile
In relationships, we tend to communicate better I think. See, we know that we have to actually see that probably more than our friends and maybe even our relatives.
haha nice try. you almost got me there!

lol yeah Tongue

by the way rays heart I always thought you were a cappie for some reason....

Ray's Heart is such a doll, yes he is ^_^. I've been a fan since his JD days lol
What kind of doll cappysweetie? smile
He's a scorp, no? Anyways, Cappy!!!!Big Grin How you been gal? Been so long since I talked to ya! I thought you were going to PM me with an update, you never did! Shame on you, lol. OK OK, j/k....smile
And hello Eric, you new around here? I take it you are a cappy?
Thanks, SG! Didn't know you were a wine person, I like wine too! Except it makes me VERY sleepySad I think my favs are white Rose and the late harvest ones. Don't really fancy the red ones and absoulutely love the ice wines!Big Grin
"haha nice try. you almost got me there!"

"by the way rays heart I always thought you were a cappie for some reason...."
mmmm ... No, I'm not a Cap, I just love me some Caps!
"In relationships, we tend to communicate better I think. See, we know that we have to actually see that probably more than our friends and maybe even our relatives."
Okay, you know it?s hard to have a good relationship better with little communication.
"guess what i had - calamari.....so don't calamari and drink i guess LOL . i usually have calamari with a glass of beer but tbh beer does nothing to me hehe. i cannot take too much caffeine but thank god i have no problem with alcohol LOL. i don't drink much beer tho i'm more of a wine person coz i don't want a beer tummy lol."
You like calamari, I had it a few time but didn?t always like. I like wine as well but I'm not a beet person.
"thx JD. you are a cotton candy . i eat small meals/snacks before and after my night classes. "
You know Cotton candy does your body good. It's proven. I read it on an article somewhere. WinkingWinking
"Thanks, SG! Didn't know you were a wine person"
You should have some Cappy meetings sometimes and get to know each other. SG can get quite interesting, typing under wine influence. TongueTongueTongue
Ray: sure, maybe you can start a thread, it'll do you good too, to get to know us betterTongueWinking
"sure, maybe you can start a thread, it'll do you good too, to get to know us better??
Good Idea Sarasa, I like your spirit. smile... but are you sure you'll let me know all that I need to know about Cappies. All the ins and outs of Sarasa!

Well, I can talk on the phone for hours too! When I have time to that is lol. However, I should stop doing it because I need to keep my phone bill low. I can't have a high phone bill anymore. Nope, I'm on a budget.

Yes I know that Ray. But we caps are better in close romantic relationships. Like I said before, we actually have to see that person more often than not, so we have to communicate or else.
"No harm in trying, Ray. You'll learn something at the least."
True and then I can use what I have to get what I don't have.
