      Even if it did make sense evolutionarily (which it doesn’t imo, how would the “trait” of walking aimlessly while talking on the phone ever even get “selected” for by nature?), that doesn’t make it fact. Don’t present fanciful notions as fact if you don’t want to have similar interactions on the Internet. It’s a cute picture though!

        It wasn’t selected for. The way I see it, it’s a side effect of humans being evolved for social interaction. Generally when humans would communicate they would see the human they are talking to.

          None of that says anything about “trying to find them”. Again, I just don’t even know how you could scientifically prove such a claim. And I really don’t care.

      If you’re yelling / talking to someone who’s far away, do you move towards them?
