Nah you’re 100% in the wrong here, and it’s wild that you bring up respect, as if this attitude and behavior isn’t incredibly disrespectful. Calling someone is literally not disrespectful. What the fuck is wrong with people
Isn’t it? On a cell phone it demands that I drop what I’m doing at a moment’s notice and respond to your inquiry. Unless it is something time-sensitive, the call probably should have been scheduled or a text message would have served the purpose without demanding an instant response
Yeah its like walking into a room without knocking, while im talking to someone and just screaming at the top of your lungs: “WE NEED TO TALK RIGHT NOW”
If you did that irl without a very good reason i would slap you.
Not a single person in my life has ever had an issue with the fact that i prefer to be texted and reserve phone calls for more immediate issues. My time belongs to me and no one else so I have no obligation to answer people, and text is faster to parse for me and always has a protocol available if I need it later.
Calling someone isn’t disrespectful. Calling someone that has made it clear they do not want to be called except for emergencies is. In my case I’d just mute all calls from them after it happens the second time.

Right? IMO it’s rude to just call someone out of the blue and expect that they’ll be able to drop everything to chat with you.
Unfortunately, my mom loves to call unannounced, and because my parents are getting older I feel the need to answer in case something’s wrong.
