Texting?

There is truth to it, but I don't think it's that big of a deal unless you spend most of your day with your phone in your hand texting. I think it makes a guy less likely to approach you cos your already paying attention to your phone and what you are doing and they don't really wanna interrupt. And also, they may think that you already have a boyfriend and that's why you are texting so much, cos your texting him.
Put simply, id rather approach a girl who doesn't seem to be doing anything in particular cos I know I won't have to compete with a phone for attention.

I think so I mean, its ok to text SOMETIMES but if a guy who likes you notices your always texting he may be discouraged to talk to you because you always seem busy or your talking to your boyfriend. Guys also may think your into gossiping because you text so much. Instead try something like reading a book or, writing. Guys love to see a beautiful girl with brains, and it also opens the door for them to have a reason to talk to you by saying "watcha reading?" or other little comments.

I think it is true in most cases because when you text, you can't hear his voice and sense that person emotion either. From my experience, I think you have to talk to the guy and also text him too. I learned a hard lesson that texting doesn't replace the phone calls and guy doesn't take you serious if you alway text him. If he doesn't want to talk to you on the phone then you know he is not interested in you.
