Do you think dating a bad texter in this generation is an issue?

[Lilllypad11]

As per the title really. If someone tells you off the bat I’m just a bad texter how would you feel? Is it believable anymore?

People have lives and places to be. Wow.

I'd hate that pressure.

24 hours is fine if you're dating. If you're just starting out probably I'd be keener and text sooner. It doesn't take long. Is this about the guy from your other threads?

I'd be a bad texter then. I literally toss my phone on the nearest thing as soon as i walk in the door after work and if people are lucky i might check it once before i go to bed. I hate feeling i have to be constantly glued to it.

I do answer messenger more often cause im usually at the computer anyway.

Like a pp said i also hate ongoing conversations by text. i always stop responding first and then feel a bit guilty lol

If I were dating nowadays I think I'd just be honest and say upfront "I don't like to text constantly throughout the day, or text 'good morning' or 'chat' over text. I'd like us to see each other regularly and have great in-person conversations but texting is gonna be pretty limited apart from for functional reasons ".

Same here. I can't be bothered with text hockey.

An app that doesn't involve messaging?

I’d think it was a mark in their favour (unless they were bullshitting because they already have a partner). I have a lot of time for people with better things to do than being glued to their phone all day long.

sounds like you might be incompatible with your social media/texting expectations
