I never was good at phone conversations

I guess I've become one of those people who has phone conversations that last over an hour and the majority of time is spent in silence yet neither party feels the need to say good-bye, but finally once good-bye is said, conversation picks up again for a brief moment only to fade into silence again and this cycle continues until one of the phones dies and it has to get charged and then they call back and it's the same thing for another hour.
Except maybe I haven't become "one of those people" because I don't think there are enough people that ridiculous in the world to consider there to be a group. So, I guess it would make more sense to just say I have started to have phone conversations where speaking is secondary to the basic act of being connected on the phone itself.
