'Kisses' in texts/emails/cards?

brummytom · 28-12-2009 10:09PM #1

Do you put hugs/kisses when you send texts, emails or cards to mates?

I do to good mates, always. All of us do, never thought it was weird until last night.

So do you?

stovelid · 28-12-2009 10:11PM

Yes, to friends of the same sex

If x is a kiss, what's a hug?

An 'o'... hugs and kisses are xoxo

Never used that myself though

Ebbs · 28-12-2009 10:14PM

O is a hug, hence xoxoxoxo on the end of messages.

ibarelycare · 28-12-2009 10:14PM

This should be multiple choice tbh. I do sometimes, to friends, bf, siblings, mother, but it depends on the tone of the message, not all the time.

Zwillinge · 28-12-2009 10:14PM

No

I never get any 'o's

alwaysadub · 28-12-2009 10:14PM

An o is a hug. I do sometimes-if someone is having a bad time or somethin i'll put a kiss at the end of my message/card to show i care. And when im sending cards to my nephews and nieces to show i love them.
But i don't do generally no.

EDIT:Yeah there should be a 'sometimes' option on the poll-none of the options really apply to me.

That explains a lot! I never knew what the 'o's were meant to be

I know, sorry.. I thought that after I pressed submit; can't edit it now though

Hold it hold hold it.

OP, are you female? If so, I understand.

Because, a male sending a text or card to a male wouldn't put a kiss, would he?:eek:

A male sending to his wife or GF or mistress may do this, but that would be the only
reason I would imagine. I wouldn't send kisses to any female, she would have to
be my wife or GF or mistress....

Cian92 · 28-12-2009 10:16PM

Only if they're hot.

davyjose · 28-12-2009 10:16PM

O is a hug?????? :eek:

What the hell am I gonna do with all that lube?

brummytom · 28-12-2009 10:17PM

I think he's one of them metrosexuals

God, no

walshb · 28-12-2009 10:19PM

Metrosexuals wouldn't do that. I would consider myself quite liberal and open and easy going, but I see absolute ZERO reason for a male to include kisses or hugs when sending
emails or texts to other males. It makes no sense, and is rather strange really.

brummytom · 28-12-2009 10:20PM

To lads it's an ironic statement (usually meant to mean 'I hate you and this is sarcastic'); or to girls 'I want to ride you, a single kiss makes me look caring'

Latchy · 28-12-2009 10:21PM

Yes, to friends of the same sex

Depends who I am sending the texts and emails to .If it's family , close friends or aquaintances I usually put a few xx at the end and recieve same in return .

Lab_Mouse · 28-12-2009 10:23PM

Yes, to friends of the opposite sex

You'll have to come up with a better excuse than that:rolleyes::D

I know why you started this thread. They got to you in that other thread did'nt they.:D

Anyway i don't put hugs and kisses in texts though i know a lot of women who do even when they're just texting friends. I thinks its pretty gay for one man to put a x in a text to another man.

Pushtrak · 28-12-2009 10:29PM

Never have, probably never will. Phone calls tend to be my MO rather than text messages.

KnifeWRENCH · 28-12-2009 10:31PM

I only write x's at the bottom of cards for my mother and my grandmother. Anyone else gets a card full of indifference.

Never do it in texts or emails. Don't see the point.

If you start including them then you have to establish criteria for not including them and it all gets way too complicated, so no, never.

Mialin · 28-12-2009 11:03PM

No

I have often accidently sent one to someone like my boss. I agree its messy and want to get out of hte habvit of sending theM!

what happened last night to make you fell weird about it?

and yes I do put hugs and kisses on texts/emails

Mint Sauce · 28-12-2009 11:13PM

only to mum, gran, and close female friends/relations, and only on cards and the odd text depending on tone/occasion

xox

tolosenc · 28-12-2009 11:13PM

Yes, to friends of the same sex

From living in France, I've developed the nasty habit of affixing "biz" to the end of all messages I send to women. Even when I'm back in Ireland, and the recipient doesn't speak French...

Larianne · 28-12-2009 11:15PM

No.

Unless I'm really drunk or reeeally want some or drunk and really want some at the same time.

That or if someone is really upset.

I don't fling kisses round willy nilly.
