quade 4 #3 August 14, 2003 A text message is far too short for an unestablished line of communication. I believe they'd prefer to be thought of as a human rather than the recipient of junk mail.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Katzeye 0 #5 August 14, 2003 LAME! Only ask in person for first date. Second or more phone call is OK. Is a chicken omelette redundant? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe they'd prefer to be thought of as a human rather than the recipient of junk mail. you've got a point. i'll probably give a call tonight or maybe tomorrow. i've just sent her a text last night and i was wondering if it's too quick to call her tonight or should i wait till tomorrow.

quade 4 #7 August 14, 2003 Yes, it's insincere! Think about it this way. I could set up a text message template and send it out to 100 different phone numbers with just a few keystrokes. Wow. I know I'd feel special if I got one of those! It's just like spam email. Or at least, that's how it -should- be looked at if you don't already have an established dating connection with the person.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wlie 0 #8 August 14, 2003 Didn't the Malaysian government recent approve something into law recently that sending a divorce notice via SMS was acceptable? I say, "keeping up with the times man!"My other ride is the relative wind. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TitaniumLegs 8 #9 August 14, 2003 QuoteLAME! Only ask in person for first date. Second or more phone call is OK. I don't know about that. I once asked a girl out via email. We are now married. (The rest of the story is that the email never actually resulted in a date. It was a couple years later in an elaborate maneuver that involved Motrin, a sweatshirt, a hot tub, and of course, alcohol.) (>o|-< If you don't believe me, ask me.

mouth 0 #10 August 14, 2003 Don't even think about it. If you can't ask me in person, don't bother. If you are not close enough to ask in person at least let me hear your voice. Just my opinion as a female. -- Hot Mama At least you know where you stand even if it is in a pile of shit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
