I just wanted to know why do guys send text messages, instead of picking up and calling a woman? I've noticed that in this new generation of dating, that guys are doing a lot of texting. Why not just pick up the phone and call? I'm just wondering why even bother about asking for my number if you are going to text. I feel that you should just ask for my email address if you are going to write. Anyway, fella's give me your thoughts on this and the reason why you do this.

So coming form my p.o.v. I wouldn't have to worry about devious, or misleading personalities. Especially since I'm only 16 years old, I do not have the type of freedom where I can go out around 10-ish to go hang out with anyone. Nor hang out with my friends frequently. My parents allow me very little free time, so that i can spend with my friends, so when I had a phone texting was basically my first choice for many things. I could text mutliple friends [and be very attentive] all the while watching tv, completing homework assignments, preparing for mock trial, and Browse the Internet. There just isn't enough hours in one day to comply with my necesities allowing me to talk with that significant other and my friends whom all wish to talk about things they find important too. But texting ables the ability for me. PRO TEXTING!!! {although I no longer have my cell phone =[ }
I feel you though. However, people are still going to be devious and misleading regardless, texting and/or IMing doesn't really protect you from that, in fact, it can really set you up for it. C'est la vie. But if that is one of your few means of communicating, then txt on!



lol
jus doesnt work.
to just be sittin on the phone with someone & thats why i usually stick to texting until i get to the point where im interested enough to hold a vocal conversation. for me DATING involves getting to know more than one "potential person". does it bother you to think that the girl texting you sweet nothings could be texting others the same thing?
