Why are you guys so bad texters?

[Anonymous]

Almost all girls suffer from guys that are bad texters. At this moment I'm suffering from one. He is a really bad texter, but if don't text him he complaints about it... Why are you guys like that?

It could be due to my anxiety, but often I'll just wait and think up a few good things to say. You can't know if I've seen it or if I missed it or if I'm just busy. And it stops me from looking like I'm sitting around itching for you to text. Sometimes I will text right way because I'm not that interested and/or I expect you to drop me, other times it's because I feel really comfortable talking with you and I know just what to say in that moment. Also sometimes I'd just rather not be texting, every text conversation is one less I can have in person and form a connection.

Who the fuck likes texting? if a boy always likes texting her girfriend and always replies in time then he is a miserable victim of a girl. Sorry, I am not a victim and if she really wants to talk she can make a call but this doesn't mean she always has to send fucking messages to understand if I care of her or not. Girls are so stupid that they base their love on texting and the time he replies. You miserable creaters.

When people is away, like for more than a month, one have to see if the other person is worth the wait. If the guy doesn't reply, a girl could easily assumpt that the guy isn't interested, so would try to move on, wich is my case. That doesn't mean we are miserable creatures.

My boyfriend is a very good texter which is good because we're long distance. In general I've found this to be true, guys tend to be really monosyllabic and uncommunicative in texts, and won't do any of the work to carry the conversation. My ex boyfriend was horrible for using textspeak as well, I mean I'm not a total grammar nazi, but it was bad..

I get what you mean and it's worse when you're one too. And trying to get a guy to call you... Lord!

[Asker]

Call you? Does that even exist anymore?

[FistSlaminElite]

Well yes, it does

[Theguyoverthere]

I can text away but at the same time, I prefer certain conversations not to be handled by texting because if it is a serious matter, texting can make it worse. Texting is absent of things like tone of voice and many texts if you go through your phone, can be read back to you in 50 different ways.

Odd, because I think most people who love texting are horrible texters. Texting is incredibly boring and, for the most part, very inferior to a phonecall, where I can at least hear who I'm talking to. In fact, I'd rather have a hand written letter, at least there some personal element to it.

[PiuBelloAmante]

because we are nervous to seem desperate lol
we also tend to say shit we dont mean, or say things that can be misinterpreted, therefore we like to take our time before writing a text or at least i do

I'm not glued to my phone. Most texts are nothing more than words for words sake. Hence I check my phone 4 or 5 times a day. I respond to texts accordingly, if its some trivial matter it gets the attention it deserves. If it's important I respond in a timely manner. Most women are over texters. They want an immediate response to a trivial matter and then send 20 texts over an hour about why haven't you responded.

[zorro8888]

Are you saying women are amazing texters?

Did you ever think that maybe he is busy?

[Asker]

Never complaint about it when he's busy and told me... Just complain when he is not busy and still takes too long to aswer.

[zorro8888]

Well ask him... every guy is different.
When a girl texts me I usually reply with 5-10 minutes unless something else caught my attention.

[neisch]

well if im not conversing something is wrong with me or my girlfreind says im not allowed to talk to you lol

[JSmuve]

How are we bad testers? Give me examples of what we do.

[JSmuve]

Texters** autocorrect fail

[Asker]

Taking to long to reply

[Asker]

too*

[JSmuve]

What would qualify as too long?

[Asker]

If you're already having a conversation with them, taking 30 minutes to respond each time. Or maybe sometimes hours. I know people are busy sometimes, but usually happens when they have told me that they're not busy.

[JSmuve]

Maybe they're trying to tell you that they're not interested in texting you.

[Asker]

Yeah, when not talking to him he asked if I had lost interest in him, if that why I didn't talk to him... So, that is kind of confussing

[Anonymous]

Odd. I usually have to be the one to start texting conversations in my current relationship. I blame it on med school.

[syafiqrahim]

Based on my experience it is because he likes you , and I bet he's nervous. Just give him some chance okay ;)

[Anonymous]

No i am great texter i meant lots of married women/ single women leaving their husbands for me

[Opinion Owner]

Yes meant them women/ girls right from Gag, they tell me your so good, way better than my man will ever be

[Anonymous]

We don't know what to say. If we go too far girls overreact and it's game over. Girls are never clear with what they want so depending on the guy, depends on how he behaves.

[Klaatu51]

i play video games or i use GAG... sorry

[Dillion]

How can we improve? Do you have a manual?

[atomique]

What's a bad texter?

[Asker]

Someone that usually replies to your texts too late, or whenever they want

[atomique]

So basically what I currently do with text and email. So basically the way I communicate in a video game is the right way to text.
