I've been seeing a girl for a little over two months and it would have never occurred to me to "sext" her. For one, I'm a big advocate of actions speak louder than words. Secondly, I find the concept a little immature and perverse, and something better left for the juvenile crowd. Thirdly, I guess I'd feel weird sending something like that to a woman that's special to me, as if she's my sex object that I get to play with later but talk about it now.

Am I just being prudish about this behavior? If so, when would you start engaging in this type of thing? At this point, I'd feel a little uneasy in doing this sort of thing, because I've not really picked up a vibe from her that she'd be receptive towards it (i.e. she hasn't sent me any provocative texts or even talked about it). Would you find it odd to receive a random text one day from your SO telling you that s/he wants to do XYZ dirty things to you?
It's one of many forms of foreplay. Hell yes, I'm a participant. It's healthy. It's just talking dirty and teasing, building anticipation until that evening.

I think it's dumb and childish, but I'm still open if the chemistry is right.

Oddly enough; I write erotica, and I'm really, really, really kinky, but I don't really care for cyber sex. I've done my share. Hopefully for those that do- you can live up to it.

Why does anyone care so much what other people do?
I personally couldn't care less about what you and your husband do.

The point of the OP is not about what you and your husband do and whether or not it is right or wrong.

The point was to gauge the interest of a specific topic (sexting) as it pertains to romantic relationships. I was simply curious if a large number of people in my demographic found it appealing.

As I tell my kids, once it's out there in cyberworld, it's out there forever. Never take a photo or text something that you wouldn't want your employer or future mother-in-law to see.

I got one of those. I texted back, "Who IS this?" And got an "OMG, so sorry" in return. I then showed it to MrsCPG before erasing.
