Textual attraction: the secret of the perfect text to win a lady's heart

This recent news seems to give tips for men to lure a girl for a date - to not bank on his sex appeal but on his 'text appeal.' 

In a survey the report said - "Those most likely to succeed combine wit and some innocent flirting into an abbreviated phone message."

A poll by directory enquiry service 118118 found that 90 per cent of girls prefer to use texts rather than real conversations in the early stages of a relationship.

And more than 75 per cent judge a potential date's character by his texting style.


One can just imagine how this man-made tool has really changed and evolved our way of dealing with technology that even our way of establishing a relationship now demands a man-made tool like cellphone.  How far is this leading us in terms of human communication and intimacy? 

In the Philippines, considered among the world's texting capitals, text messaging is used positively and negatively.  One negative aspect of this tool is that humans can seem to make it so easy to manipulate one's feelings or influence one's outlook or philosophy in life. 

While texting can bring positive changes, it can also bring negative results, proving once again that man should be meticulous and careful in how he uses the things he himself created.

ryanborja, I like this story. I never had a text plan until a couple of months ago and it has become the more casual way of getting in touch... even if it is less timely.

Phone call vs. text // Email vs. facebook msg
