I think it's the more immediate connection. When i think of things she'd like or stuff i would normally (if things were different) tell my mom or a friend i share with her instead.
I could ask her for a brief check-in but i probably don't need it. To me email was less intrusive because she could choose when to answer whereas a call needs more urgently attended to. However, i messed up by freaking out and misinterpreting things she said as not caring, or being annoyed with me or getting anxious about her shorter messages.
