Oh definitely, I just really don't like talking on the phone. I live in Scotland, but I'm back home in Canada right now visiting my dad. I've had one call with my wife longer than 10 minutes since I landed 2 weeks ago. She's fine(ish) with it, because she knows it gets my anxiety on overdrive to talk on the phone. No idea why, I'm pretty ok with in person talking, but for some reason talking on the phone has me spiralling in a matter of minutes.
I think I can relate. I think that what makes phoning hard for me is that I can't see the face I'm talking to, which confuses my brain because it's missing a face to read. I usually get around it by looking at myself in a mirror. And as for pre-call anxiety... I haven't really found a way to get round that one yet :-/
