Text messaging has allowed guys to hide behind technology and not take chances. What happened to pursuing a young lady and making your intentions clear. Now a days all we get is a text saying "whats up" #icant
I refuse to respond to these half way efforts of getting my attention. Is this the accepted norm? Is this the world we live in? Am I supposed to take you seriously if you text me whats up...
A few weeks ago I thought I was networking by giving my business card to a gentleman i met. He proceeds to initially send a nice text message saying how nice it was to meet me. Then it goes down from here. This grown man continues to text me ALL week. Mid week I respond and say I am pretty busy and cannot really text but if you would like to call me or speak in person I would be happy too. THIS FOOL continues to text me ALL week like he KNOWS me.
My rules for text messaging:
1) If you are over 30. You should know how to pick up a phone and call someone. NO exceptions.
2) Back and forth conversations through text messages.. Not acceptable. I have better things to do then text back and forth.
3) Texts are cute for a quick hello. Settling last minute plans. Thinking of you texts...
4) BUT if you are trying to get to know someone. TEXTS ARE NOT THE WAY TO GO.
Basically I think texts are for punks. MAN UP fellas. I don't want to talk to you all night on the phone.. My friends know I get a headache when I talk too much. But if you really want to get to know me.. YOu betta pick up a phone..
Example of random text messaging without a focus. check out the dates. All this texting with no phone call. The initial text started really nice and professional.. then went down hill from there.
I'm in green.

Great post! Had me cracking up in agreement!
Another thing about that early on texting is that it lets you see how big of a relief or FAIL their grammar habits are.
I know, I know - txting is not writing a dissertation, but when I see too many "ur"s and lack of proper usage of basic 3rd grade fundamentals, mu eye starts twitching...
This is turrible! I. Cannot. Deal. with this nonsense. The only reason why men do this is because women allow them it. Why does this fool keep texting you? Your responses show that you are not interested in his nonsense.
I simply cannot understand why men think it is acceptable to pursue a woman via incomplete sentences, grammatical errors, and misspelled words. I will not accept it. #kickemtothecurb
