I don't like texting. I think the practice brings mis-communication; not better communication. I gather emotionally ambivalent/distant people just love it, because they can show they "care" without actually taking the big step and....caring.
If handled clumsily, affection expressed via text can be read as "too much". Annoyance with a person can come off as actual rudeness. I think phone calls are better, and I fail to understand why they have fallen from popularity. They are much more personal..and isn't that the point of getting involved in a relationship or friendship?
yeah, it's interesting how much time i spend clarifying texts, but i think you are on to something, it's creates an emotional joy ride for some. but then again some ppl or too stupid (or too cool) to turn it off when necessary.
I agree, look if someone asked me to let them know when I got home, I'd do it regardless of what my feelings are towards them. But one of my friends who I just told this story to, said I shouldn't have texted him when I got home, she said if it were her and she wasn't into him she would not have texted him to let him know she was home. I told her I would never do that regardless of how I felt about the guy, because if he is being genuine, you might create needless worry. In my situation the guy was a cop, so I thought it best to oblige.
Bingo. Guys do that (at least people that i know) to see if the girl is interested in them. If she texts you when she gets home then she is showing some type of interest. If she doesnt text or if she texts you the next day saying that she forgot then she's not interested. Pretty simple.

really now... i've never heard such a useless idea.
idk, i figured if a guy hangs out with a women and ends the night by asking her to text back when she gets home safe, chances are she has more words, behavior, activity to evaluate the guy's romantic interest in her during the time they hung out than simply using his text request. like if i was physically or romantically interested in her, she would know before she headed home for the night.

I don't agree with this, if somebody asks me to text them to let them know I got home safe, I will do that regardless of how I feel about them.

Some women will and some women won't. I have done this before. If they text back it shows that they have some interest, if they don't then Oh well.
