OMG, that sounds so awful, LOL! I'm a very social introvert but hate making phone calls. I'd MUCH rather write to people, unless they're close friends I talk to regularly. It does sound like a great strategy, though. Although I'd also be nervous that it would result in way more coffee dates and such than I'd want to schedule. Good for you for trying it out! Sounds like it's been worth doing.

Well Ronnie's PDF talks about a service you can use to make sure you are leaving messages for people rather than risking talking to them (!). I haven't used it but I think it's fascinating tech.

They might still call you back. And you might have to schedule stuff with them. ;-)

That is true. :-) I like people, and I like staying in touch. But it takes energy. Right now, getting over covid, I don't have a lot of that.
