I don't use my phone when I have a date and it is my pet hate to see someones face buried in their phones screen.
I warn a girl once or twice before stopping going out with her.
we've never went on dates... haha i text when i'm in class when one of my close girl friends isn't present
meaning can get easily lost through text
you can convey more in less time through face-to-face
he probably also likes reading body language :)
my boyfriend is the same way
I'm quite old school, I prefer face to face. It's more exciting.. That said I'm probably more cute over text. Sometimes I can't just be socially awkward.
I am usually doing something else. (Watching a movie, researching, w/e) I get lazy replying back sometimes.
For meaningful relationships I want to go face to face.
Hell Yeah I like talking face to face, texting fucking blows!
Face-to-face conversations are personal, you can see someone's reactions, facial expressions where as with text messaging it's just words on a screen, it's impersonal and you cannot bond with someone just by text message.
trueeeee
Face to face is more intimate and fun than texting... We want to build connection and that's what girls want
I'm the same way. I'd rather hang out face to face than have to communicate through texting.
because they aren't good at texting or they too lazy to type.
Why wouldn't you prefer face to face communication? Not everyone is a texter
i like both tbh! but only texting is also a no no to me... so i guess i prefer face-to-face than text
I'm so confused now lol
You like texting but it's a no-no to you? Help me out here lol
hahahahahaha
i mean i like texting, but only texting is a no no to me. it would be ok with me if it was face-to-face + texting and not solely texting
Oh ok. But is just face to face talking a no-no to you? Hmm? 😐
Lol
lmao nooo
talking only face-to-face is okay to me ^^. but if i don't see the person for a week or more... i'd expect a text now and then just to check up on me or me checking up on him
its just only texting which is a no no.
Oh ok. I gotcha! 😊
Personally, I like the intimacy of talking face to face.. texting is so impersonal in my opinion...
cause we enjoy the personal intamite social interaction pretty much
Because texts lack a voice tone and they are open to misinterpretation.
I don't know, for me it's the opposite. texting is easier for me..
are you shy?
haha yes x_x
ah that explains!
yeah and a little bit introverted too... not as bad as I used to be but still... wish I could change it but not that easy :(
dude you should hang with me haha many of my shy introverted friends became outgoing after spending more than 1 year by my side hahaha
haha I would love to but you live a little bit far away... ;)
where do you live
Luxembourg as you can see on my profile ;)
tiny country in Europe between Germany, France and Belgium
oh. man that sucks. you live super far haha
but anyway you should hang with outgoing people! i'm sure it'll help you become less shy
haha yes... I do but it's deep down inside me anchored to my soul ;)
dude thats nonsense!
haha I know... but it's just difficult changing it. but it got better
i hope it goes away soon! good luck bro
thanks! ^_^
Face-to-face you can send emotions like sarcasm or jokes that sort of thing
i hate texting and even more hate sexting. why substitute the real thing?
emoticon is not good enough to show expression ; p
not enough emoticons to express myself... that i agree.
If your a girl that can't spend real time with your boyfriend and instead text him all day long for small talk when ever you find it convenient then sorry but your a sleazebag and not worth communicating with.
huh i never said that?
Then maybe you should ask yourself what you are really saying.
maybe you should learn to read
I can read just find but apparently you can't communicate well. :)
and probably learn to write too
Apparently someone grew up with a silver spoon. :)
Because I'm old-fashioned
at 20? xD
Is that an issue? It's the way I was raised.
no its just funny how you put it out xD
'old'-fashioned
