Is Texting The New Talking?


Most people prefer to text rather than talk on the phone, but is it really beneficial to a relationship? We all love to get those texts with the flirty winks and smiley faces, but when is it the right time to start communicating on a more personal level? Can you really get to know someone through texting?


  • Texting, although convenient, should never be the only form of communication between two people that are trying to get to know more about one another. At some point, the lines of communication should open up and advance to a level where both people are comfortable beyond the keypad. For some, this may take some time, but what matters is that the relationship that you are trying to build progresses. Sure, the texts with the smiley faces and winks are cute and sweet but are you really learning anything about that person? -Gia

  • When you first meet someone, the first line of communication is texting. In the beginning it’s interesting. We love receiving Cute little texts that say “Good Morning” or random texts that say “Just thinking about you” when we least expect it, but when you both start to realize that you want to get to know a little more about each other, it’s time to stop texting and start talking. If you have been talking to a guy over a month and haven’t spoken to him on the phone at least once, it’s time to move on. -Bonny
