Scorpios and Communication Styles

Aside from the preference of speaking to someone in person what is your MOST alternately preferred style of communication when you can't see someone to talk to them and how do you feel about it? Text messages because less is better and it's instant? Email because you can express yourself more yet they may not respond right away before they read it? Phone calls because you don't like typing? Does it even matter to you one way or the other?

I think "most" men in general want communication delivered as short as possible and in bullet form. Which IMO just means you have to come back again and again to ask even more questions to get ALL the information you need out of them eventually in order to make an informed decision on a matter. Whereas women will tell you all the facts and get it out there all at once so there's no fishing expedition for facts. But as far as I can tell..... you are right about the difference between scorp males and females.

My female Scorp friend will talk on the phone with me for hours but will do email and plenty of them as well. But she does not like texting and Doesn't always answer her phone for days.

My Scorp BF wasn't very talkative at first on the phone but is getting better about it. And he rarely responds to TM I've sent and only on occasion answers email. Not sure if that too will improve over time or if it's just something he doesn't do and that's that.

Depends on who it is. I hate talking on the phone if I can just see you in person...I'll wait till I see you if I want to talk. I prefer to text because it's quick and gets your point across in seconds. I talk on the phone to people who don't live in my area, or to my family members. I also use facebook a lot to keep in touch with people also. I practically never use email as a source of communicating with friends, family...just business.

The time I spent with my Scorp BF I noticed he does waaaay more phone calls then any TM and haven't ever seen him do an IM. Not that he doesn't but i never saw him get into one when I was around and he was working on the computer. I've tried to engage him with the IM on Facebook and I doubt he even knows it exists. LOL

I have noticed too though that he leaves his phone laying around a lot and misses calls. He doesn't always return the calls either. (mine included ) In the last week that I was around he even asked me to answer his calls for him when his phone rang. Not sure if that was to demonstrate to me he had nothing to hide or if he just doesn't like answering his phone. It's weird for me because I don't know the people who are calling him and I'm mostly just telling them to hold on and I'll ge him.

"get him"

Are you the one who usually ends the calls or do you wait for the other person to do it? or...is it just a random thing according to the relevance of the conversation?

I've hated texting since "text" became a verb, HOWEVER I've had to give into the darkside and adopt it because everybody, and I mean every-freaking-body uses it as a form of communication now. I do like it for sending out a few quick words, but I very much dislike having to wait for responses that may or may not come. For me, it's a little like Chinese water torture or waiting for a Jack-in-the-box to pop out. "It's coming. Wait, is it coming? Did it go through? Are they going to text me back? Oh well, screw it, I guess they're not..." then my phone goes off, and I jump out of my skin because I wound myself up, plus I hate the texts that never come.

I hate talking on the phone unless I'm into you, in which case, I will talk your face off, as long as you can hold my interest. I dated a guy for a minute and a half, and even though he kept me on the phone for a couple hours at a time, if you could have seen me, you would have seen that I was holding an imaginary gun to my head and pulling the trigger. Repeatedly. My ex and I could stay on the phone for upwards of 7 hours, and we'd still want to talk to each other afterwards. I loved every second of phone-time with him. The guy I was most recently interested in would spend hours on the phone with me, and I never wanted to let him go. I'm good on the phone, but I don't want to waste my time talking to just anyone, and most of the time I don't even feel like talking to my friends, so I, too, constantly miss phone calls, and many of them on purpose, just so that I don't have to get trapped in a long conversation when I have 500 other things I'd rather do. For the getting-to-know-you process, I enjoy it because it's quick and to the point. I can hear the other person on the line and get to know their tone and inflection, and what they sound like when they're lying to me so that I can identify it without even looking at their face. 😛

I'm not a huge fan of IMing now, although I used to be. I use way too many "lol's" in casual, rapid-fire, internet-based conversations and it annoys even me.

I do, however, like rapid-fire e-mails, which give me a little more time to formulate responses, and I feel like I can communicate reasonably well via the written word. Because my ex and I were in a LDR, we sent hundreds of e-mails a day, and I liked being able to write paragraphs of crap to say everything all in one fell swoop without having someone waiting on each line of text, as happens with IMing.

I hardly answer my phone. I had 20 unheard vm's last month, up until they reset my pixi. I prefer text or email. Unless you are someone I REALLY want to speak to, then I'll pick up, but I hate dialing people.

Text all the way..............i love texting. I hate calling. I will avoid your call then send you a text asking if you just called.lol
Hate voicmail,hardly listen to them!!:😢
I dont mind emails,but dont really email friends on a regular basis.
