Text messages were invented back in the 1980s to make it easier for deaf people to communicate. In this day and age of impersonal communication, text messages share a lot of things that they really shouldn’t. So, unless you’re deaf or just really hate the person you are texting – avoid using text messages for these reasons:
Sincere Apologies – If you feel bad for doing something which you shouldn’t have – don’t text about it unless you want to be in the doghouse for another day. An apology should be personal and a text message isn’t.
Nude Pictures – Think your man will appreciate a naked photo of your chest? Of course he will. As well as all of his friends. And their friends.. and their.. you get the point.
Happy Birthday – A text message birthday wish is almost as bad as the good ‘ol “Happy Birthday” Facebook wall post. Take a minute and give them a call. Heck, even a voicemail is a better alternative.
Legit Congratulations – See above.
