Usually I send messages to friends and work partners. Nowadays is easier to send messages or voice records.

Usually, I feel comfortable texting my friends than talking them face to face. but when it's time to make any plans then I would like to speak about what should we do or what we are going to do.

I prefer sending message instead of speaking to my friends, for not disturb them while they are working or sleeping

I usually send voice messages when I want to start a real conversation. It ends up in a phone call.
