Really? Yikes! Life is busy enough without all that. I gave up FB a few years ago. I'm back on now to let family know what's going on with hubby. And then I look down the list of important stuff, and remember why it's not all that important.
You've got to manage IMs now? (At least I know what an IM is. lol) What's VMS, IMs with a face? Why?
Honestly, I learned how important I was when I gave up FB. Not surprisingly, I'm not that important. No one wondered. One person PM'd in the last three years to find out how I was. Didn't get it. Wasn't there. Now he knows. Call. lol
We aren't as important as we think we are.

I also gave up Facebook a couple years back.
Yep, especially when you're at work and your boss might IM you...you have to make sure to try to reply to all the IMs that come at you. VMS is voicemail, or making sure to call people back.
I guess the point I'm making is, with so many modes of communication, is it any wonder why people are exhausted of managing it all, thus lapsing in managing their overall relationship with a person since more people do social media, text, IM..more than they talk on the phone or more importantly, get together in person. All this contributes to relationships going sour, offenses, misunderstandings, loneliness. Lots at stake here. We need to get back to face to face communication.

No.. never heard of the Whole Message method
Took some interesting University courses for communication
One thing noted, is that people are quite often not in touch with how they 'feel'...they can't put it into words
Might be one reason for lack of ability to express your thoughts...or possibly how communication can be so misunderstood?
