Me, myself and I
If you just met someone, texting should not be used as the primary means of communication. She's probably losing interest and not taking you seriously. Who wants to type whole conversations where context and tone could be lost...and waiting on a dang reply? People are losing the art of communication these days. Too lazy to put in a little effort...even had this dude, who came to pick me up for dinner, text me that he was outside. I just let him sit his butt out the door until he called to tell me he's outside. WTH.

And I swear that those stupid, 'Good morning, Beautiful' 'WYD' 'Thinking about you' are mass text messages :mjlol:.
This. If I give you my number it's because I want to TALK on the phone, not text. If you're a grown man and texting me you've pretty much lost, espcially with that annoying ass 'text speak.' Also, my phone is not tied to my hip. When I'm home my phone stays in one place no matter where I am, and I only rush to it when it rings. I don't consider texts important or urgent so they can wait.

Grown ass man texting me full on conversations... Bye! You can't possibly be that interested in me if you're texting me instead if calling.

Sick and tired of people who play texting games. Now if you don't feel like replying immediately then I understand. But to purposely reply within a certain time frame to give off the illusion that you are busy, not on your phone 24/7, etc then your on some bullshyt.

I've dealt with women where if I didn't text them back literally 34 minutes later because my phone wasn't on me, they'd text me back exactly 34 minutes later. What the fukk kinda stupid shyt is that?

I only use my phone mainly for music when I'm out and about. At home I leave it in my room and it's not always near me. But most people, especially women have their phones glued to their hand 24/7.

I could have woke up or been in the gym so I respond to a text message about 2 hours after it was sent, a chick wouldn't respond for either two hours or double that. :mindblown:

And how did you just respond to my text, I ask a question a second later but you don't respond for a couple hours :wtf: Real talk. Have you ever texted a chick, she ain't respond for 10 mins so you don't respond for 10 mins, then she don't respond for 30 mins, so you don't respond for 30 mins then she don't respond for 3 hours?

Not gonna even be that dude that texts anymore. Just gonna call if I want to talk to you or set a time and place to meet up.

Sounds like bytches don't respect you or
You must be dealing with immature females

I used to have people either not replying to my texts or waiting days before replying. Like the sucker I was, I thought it was common courtesy to reply instantly to messages as it was the right thing. Ha

Now the only people who get a quick reply from me are my immediate family and work related messages. Everyone else gets the same ignored treatment like they did to me and that shyt feels good :ohlawd:

I also purposely read their messages and make sure they see the read receipts and then proceed to ignore them. Don't want them thinking I didn't see the message. Naw, I saw it, read it and I won't respond. :umad:

Petty as fukk but :yeshrug:

Trust me. I'd rather talk on the phone than text. But some chicks just aren't into it. I've brought it up before to one chick I was seeing and she didn't reply to my message about talking on the phone. A lot of these new millennial women aren't about phone conversations, especially if they are juggling multiple dudes at once.

Some people play games all day long. They purposely don't respond right away so the game prolongs

Edit: My bad I thought you were really talking about those new imessage games :pachaha:
People been conditioned by the phone, it's not in the rule book that you gotta respond as soon as you feel the tone :manny:

Like I've said here and the coli posters who got my number know this - I respond pretty much as soon as I see the text. if I've taken an unusually long time to get back to you I've definitely not seen your text, if it's on the level of hours then I'm either at work or otherwise engaged with something that's preventing me from responding to you.

but to wait a certain amount of time to respond just to look busy .... that's pathetic, and impressive almost. because i talk to a lot of people, the mathematics for optimizing that kinda thing multiplied by the number of ppl i communicate with would quickly become too much to deal with.

mothafukkas will ignore a text...and then you'll see em active on snapchat , whatsapp, twitter or some shyt


Ultimate slap in the face. This shyt right here is automatic bushes & liable to get you choked out next time I see you because of how disrespectful it is. The fukking nerve of people who do this shyt is just :mindblown:

It's like they don't even care that you can see that they're blatantly ignoring you, almost as if it's some kind of bullshyt power play. Any girl who does this is definitely letting you know that she's playing games & it needs to called out on the spot straight up.

That's why I bush girls with the quickness. If I hit you up multiple times a day and get infrequent replies I'm done with you :camby: I had a girl text me out the blue the other day and I hit her back with the "whose this?" and she felt mad salty. Will never speak to her non-texting ass again. IDGAF

If brehs just did this and excerised there options more, there would never be another thread complaining about women.... Ever.
