Do many people initiate texts with you?

[Bethany22]

How many text conversations a day get started by someone sending you a text vs you sending people texts?

Who are the senders of texts to you? Friends, guys or girls who want to go out with you, etc?

I have a feeling girls could spend all day just answering texts they receive.

[Crimsyjo]

I speak mostly with guys. Some on here who want to ask me things or just chat. On my snap I have a couple of friends. The rest are past or current "lovers". Some potential future ones. Tho I've cut down on that now.

I reach out occasionally if I'm bored. More times than not they start convos with me. I try not reaching out first to guys unless we just friends. I don't wanna seem clingy!

The guy I was in love with i don't ever reach out first. He always reaches out first. Used to by daily but there's stuff going on at mo. I think we are done now.

Another guy who is potential relationship guy... he texts me morning sweetheart every day. He's sweet. I'm taking things slow with him but we are chatting daily.

My female friends I text maybe once or twice a month.

[PeachyPie93]

I usually get texts once a day or every few days from my friends, then it is usually guys messaging on socials, but I have gotten bored of making conversation with them, for the most part.

[AviatorTom]

Not counting the huge number of political texts I get during this election season, I typically get less than 10 texts a day. Some of the texts are from friends and relatives, others are from co-workers, and an occasional reminder text to take my car in for service.

[SueShe]

I make it a point not to allow anyone to contact me through text or DM, be it here or anywhere else.

Since I have no social media outside of G@G, it is not difficult to ignore those clumsy flirting attempts.

Also, except for my family, no one knows my phone number and thus, I am safe from texting attempts.

I have never initiated a texting message nor a DM with anyone.

Thus, it is safe to state that I am not disturbed by texting, video calls or any other form of communication.

[BetaBucks]

If this isn't a troll account/comment, have you ever considered that you have an unhealthy perspective towards communicating with people, or towards human interaction, in general?

[SueShe]

@BetaBucks you mean because I don't allow texts? I prefer to have a person to person conversation. You know, talking with the mouth and speaking the words, not writing abbreviations and acronyms.

[BetaBucks]

I mean the entirety of your comment. But I can see you're being genuine. I hope you can get to a better place one day.

[SueShe]

@BetaBucks I am in a good place. It is not because I reject text by pervs and other people that want to attempt to fornicate that I should move to a better place. Because let's face it, flirting is nothing more than attempts to get into a woman's pants.

[BetaBucks]

Have a great night, SueShe

[BetaBucks]

Not since I stopped responding immediately to people. I used to get spammed with texts all day and would be anxious af about it. I even blocked notifications to some people. And I keep my phone permanently on silent now. re-state//background_color_rgba (0, 0, 0, 0), font_color_rgb (77, 77, 77), justifyLeft

[BetaBucks]

I just checked and only had 7 text threads yesterday. Three were group chats. How about you?

[BetaBucks]

Wait I forgot about signal, TG and whatsapp. Make that 11 threads.

[SunnyRS]

Not many but few do luv, reason being I don't use many social media apps, a few people from here text me including one guy.
And other than that I usually talk to people I know like my relatives or friends or colleagues over call or face to face. re-state//background_color_rgba (0, 0, 0, 0), font_color_rgb (77, 77, 77), justifyLeft

[MittParekh15]

Haha good question, to be honest I am introvert guy with a less friends

Most of the times I get text from my close friends to make some plans on the weekends

It's always pleasent if a girl/ women initiates a text.

[Levin]

Zero these days. I don't really reply to anything nor initiate.

I've cut a bunch of so called friends out, also.

[Levin]

I also mute most of my chats and keep my phone on plane mode a lot. If anything it causes me anxiety, plus most of it is completely devoid of any substance.

[Nikki1989]

I have messaging disabled on my phone, so I don't receive any. If people want to contact me, they know how to talk.

[NathanDavis]

probably half and half, no idea really... doesn't matter either

we end up texting anyway

[sage2021]

I am usually the first sender. re-state//background_color_rgba (0, 0, 0, 0), font_color_rgb (77, 77, 77), justifyLeft

[Justhereforananswer]

Somewhere between 0-3, depending on the day. That includes my mom, boyfriend and best friend. They're usually the only people I text with

[LostandFound__x]

Not a lot but a couple. I actually don’t speak to a lot of people at all because I don’t care for it lol.

[CarolinaGirl5]

People usually text me. Then I talk from there. Now If they're elderly I initiatere-state//background_color_rgba (0, 0, 0, 0), font_color_rgb (77, 77, 77), justifyLeft

[WhitneySnow]

About half? Friends mostly. I don’t give my contact info out to random guys.

[Coden7]

Maybe two or three text me regularly. I’m part of a couple group text conversations which are hit and miss.

[Redstang88]

Got a few buddies I talk to on semi regularly basis, and work dispatch lives to bug me all the time. Thats about it

[Passportbro5999]

I bet. It’s definitely heaven for woman and hell for men

[exitseven]

I do have few people here that send me texts. Maybe 5 or 6.

[andreasderjuengere]

Scammers, and co-workers only.

Myself - I live an off-line life :)

Since my wife and I stopped talking I have some friends now who text mere-state//background_color_rgba (0, 0, 0, 0), font_color_rgb (77, 77, 77), justifyLeft

Not usually. Most of the time they are scammers or people that just want something or to do something for them.

[TheCoffeeisHot]

Not like a lot as if I was famous but yeah, a good handful

[keegen]

[Anonymous]

I always block slow texters
especially if I'm the one initiating

[Opinion Owner]

one time I got so impatient
I told him to block me instead
because I got tired of waiting
for him to show any interest
cuz he didn't budge

Why would I want to collect such data?

[MoonFace2]

Yeah, some friends do.

[FunkyMonkee]

No. SOME people initiate PM's with me.

[Caroline91]

@FunkyMonkee And do YOU ever initiate PM’s with SOME people?)

[FunkyMonkee]

@Caroline91 Hardly. THEY are MY fans!

[Caroline91]

[FunkyMonkee]
