If someone you are dating starts to over use txting.. what do you do??.. ignore the txt?? txt back, call me later and we will discuss it? I've tried it all and have broken up with several guys over this... If you don't feel strongly enough about me to have an actual conversation every couple days.. then step aside.. you are blocking my view of the next guy that will.. any tips on how to turn it around..

Especially the fact that a man shouldn't cancel a date via text message. It's rude and makes him look like a coward. It's a close second to not showing up. I absolutely agree with what you wrote!

In hind site, I think we missed some major bonding opportunities by txting instead of talking on the phone or seeing each other face to face. It is almost ironic that she sent me an email to break up with me. Back on topic. Txt messaging is a very disassociated medium. Yes, it has its pluses and a quick hello. But for anything meaningful. Pick up the phone and call. With my last gf of 6 months, we were both very busy and it seemed like most of our meaningful conversations transpired over txt messages.

They don't have to call voice mail to get your message... they just look at their phone and "Wham" there it is. There are lots of times where I don't want to answer the phone or call voice mail to see what someone wants. I'd rather just look at my phone quickly and go "Ah ha!" Personally, shoot me a text if you want to hang out with me... it generally gets to me faster that way. Plus, I'm all about the simplicity of it.

I'd see my daughter and her little nimble cell phone thumbs and think, thats kid's stuff. I have to admit to that after I met a friend of mine, he works nights and I work long days which end about an hour and a half before he goes to work, that the best time to flirt with him was from work. Now since work can grab a lot of attention at times and he knows this the texting and giving me some time to respond when I had the time to do so, worked out quite nicely. Unless I was just having one of those crash and burn days where people try to do that dying thing, I could spare a few minutes here and there to flirt back. On the c&b days, I'd just send an auto message about being high on adrenaline and I'd get back to him asap. So Jessica, I'd certainly look into it. Now I understand why the little homesallie can flick through that phone faster than a locomotive! I don't ever expect to be able to compete with that, but gadgets are good things. Cori, If a guy is not giving you an apology for his inabilities to keep his promises and an honest effort to not to it again, why would any of us want him? Right? Throw that fish back he just doesn't make the measurements. A sincere apology should at least be by voice... Well at first I was very adverse to it.
