[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You didn't give any valid reason why your husband couldn't pop in for 5 minutes and be polite.[/quote] Completely disagree. I have some social anxiety and facetime is the worst for me. I can't stand it. I hate sitting there having people stare at my face. I can't even put into words why I hate it so much. I visit my inlaws in person often and I'm very polite: I talk, ask them questions and am very animated (but it takes a lot out of me and makes me tired). I view facetime calls as DH's chore. It frees me up to do other things while he's on the phone. They aren't my parents, they're his. I facilitate calls to my parents with the kids. Strangely enough, I'm a manager and am on video calls multiple times a day at work. It doesn't stress me out and I think it's because in those calls I'm speaking, there's a purpose and I'm not being judged. Making fake small talk is hell. [/quote]
