I prefer to speak with people to make plans, but that is not always possible. Your most often at two different places when you want to make plans. But I hate the back and forth, back and forth thing when your sending sms.
i hate to make chat , the calling give you details you want to know exact.
appointment is an important thing for me , when you come in the right time for the appointment that's means you are respect and appreciate me
I like to make plans by messages but also I like to talk in person bcs is the only form that I can be sure of people´s attention is on me.
I prefer calling over texting when planning something because most of people in our country don't pay much attention to text msg.
I like to write messages a lot .because I don't fell nervous or shy .

I really like going out with friends and making plans, even when I can't I just chat, but if I could I would be constantly making plans.

Do you send lots of text messages or do you prefer to speak to friends to make plans?
I send a lot of text messages to my friends because it's much more convenient and easier than talking about plans with them, plus I can send super funny stickers and emojis.
I usually meet up and speak directly to my friends to make plans, since sending messages takes lots of time, and we won't reach a conclusion faster.
