Are Smartphones killing face to face conversations?

Personally, I feel like texting, and calling people can really help you talk to people face to face, it can give you a feel about who the person is and who they are so you can relate to them in person, it gives you more of a sense of what to say when you don’t know what to say face to face. Sure if some people never leave the house or just sit on their phones 24/7 it will not help them in face to face conversations but by putting yourself out there in both person and over the internet or over the phone, or text, etc. It can help you be a better social person.
