I have spent many a moment over the last few weeks thinking "Are there rules about txting members of the opposite sex?" If there are, I've clearly missed that memo. And these so called "rules" seem to be a bit willy nilly at the best of times (just my observation, let me know if you've experience different!).
Take for example, a recent eerrrrmm..encounter I had with a seemingly charming young man. Walked me home and everything, wowee! We had a lot of banter, some stuff in common, similar age..blah blah blah. Upon parting company sometime later, he wrote his number down for me. To me, this is an indication that he would like me to get in touch. It just seems like common sense really. Alas, no. I got no response to my txt at all.
On the flip side, another young gentleman put my number into his phone while I was with him. Given previous experiences, I wasn't expecting anything. But lo and behold, he txt me before I'd even made it home! And it continued like this for the rest of the weekend (including several phone calls). So far, so interesting. Come Monday though, it was like mobiles didn't even exist anymore - since Sunday eve, I have received nada. Seriously? I just wasted all my free txts on you and now I can't even get any value from you this weekend?! Maybe just as well, this particular txter/non-txter has the same name and job as an ex. Kind of ironic though huh?
Maybe I'm still learning the rules. Actually, I think I just manage to pick people who either ignore or just blatantly flout the rules. Hmmpphhh. Two can play at that ones boys ;-)
(as an aside, I spent a good 20 minutes searching for the picture at the top of this post, google funny iphone text messages - too much fun!)
