Reply To: Call vs. Text, version #2412

@Lee–

Ok, but until a few years ago all we ever did was call. There’s some new tools these days but people/dating aren’t fundamentally different…

It strikes me that while texting is a useful tool to keep up contact/flirtation calling is more assertive/dominant. If you really don’t care at all then texting is a good casual medium. But I think that if you’re good on the phone (I’m reasonably comfortable with it–although I need to flirt more) it can work to your advantage.

The other thing too–is that I was considering texting in order to avoid calling. Calling lets me face fears more–and whether or not I get the girl from it a phone call will probably do more to move me forward than a text would.
