Well, in my country text messaging is a widely used way to communicate with a significant other. So yeah, it's hard to stop that habit.
Thats seriously sad. As sad as (i hear) in Arabic countries little boys and girls have to use blue tooth to send messages to each other via Phone when in public places to try and hook up with each other anonymously.
Let me be honest, my sister is expect at text'in friends and family, all i get is texts from her, i don't remember the last time she ever called me. And her friends do it as well.
You know why (be honest here), cause its cheaper then calling. Your all cheap using a cheap method of communication, which is just sad!
I pity you. Do some maths here. for every 6 sms you send you probably could have made a one minute call. Save the 6 (worthless sms's anyway), call her which is far better then some text on a display screen.
