Text Flirting

    Hey everyone,
    I was just wondering where you draw the line at text flirting? More precisely with someone you met once (on a dancefloor).

    Long story short every time I've met a guy on the dancefloor and got to kissing and swapped numbers, the guy has text with things that aren't exactly PG to say the least! I'm all up for a bit of wink wink nudge nudge harmless tongue in cheek stuff, but nothing too intimate until I actually know the guy or meet him again at least.

    So what do you class as coming on too strong with text flirting? Or do you bother with it at all?

    True, but who does that? Unless its a relationship of some description?

    If you barely know the person, it's complete and utter fantasy with no bearing on reality whatsoever. In terms of making any progress getting to know that person, it's probably counter-productive. It can just make things awkward and create pressure and expectations. Much better to nip it in the bud and try and meet for a drink or something instead I think.

    what dwv said, why not just arrange to meet.

    I think it's something younger people do, I know I used to but it never really led to anything else. Anytime I do it now I'm just being sarcastic so I discontinue it pretty soon after it begins or at the very least let it be known I'm not taking it seriously.

    It's up to yourself how far you want to take it, some people get off on that kinda thing but I just see it as just a bit of harmless fun.

    Thats a good idea DWV, and was pretty much my thinking too. You hit the nail bang on the head saying it makes things awkward! Because there is never a very polite way to reply if you want to put a stop to it.

    So it is a predominantly young thing to do? I suspected it was but sometimes things like this could take root in older people and not just the youth.
