Age of texting: is it rude if they refer to you as 'u'?

[bigneil]

I have always been secretly offended when a girl texts me and refers to me as 'u'.

"How r u?"

Am I just being too old-fashioned?

I feel like saying "If you can't type the 'yo' then f u!"

You, my good sir are "trippin"

lol say that and see how far you get

Don't be offended, cause they're not doing it intentionally to be rude or disrespectful. If it really bothers u, find someone who doesn't do it

Texting is full of shortcuts, abbreviations, slang, and very loose grammar to minimize typing. It is absolutely not intended to be rude.
