So, this apparently is a confusing topic for lot of guys. I'm curious what your (female) thoughts are on texting and what your ground rules are?

Also, and aside from married couples and committed LTRs, I truly do believe that several factors affect a woman's texting habits, age (generationally), urban v. rural living area, close groups of friends v. very social, and values/beliefs. So give us some perspective, e.g., "Early 30s/Social: I never reply when ____ , I like it when a guy texts ___, I'd rather talk instead, etc."

Here's my perspective: 40s/social/moderate texting good for directions/data/info, but not dependable unless your are bf/gf, never drunk text."

Can you share something similar? maybe we will learn something.

Early 30's female - I do not believe texting is based on rural v. urban because I know many of both that text a lot. It is more generational.

I have found if I a have prospect that I spend a lot of time texting, it leads to nowheresville pretty quick and never recovers. I personally lose interest, too.

yeah, yeah, sexting is a whole 'nother thread topic, so I'm just talking dating, not booty calls or ONS. Really trying to making someone your bf or gf.


Thanks!
