Hey Everyone! I am just a little curious how many people love to text message here! As for me, I send out about six thousand a month, not including how many I might receive! So, how about you my fellow mylotters! How many of you can't live without texting people? And how many do you send out? -Have a nice day!

You've got my daughter beat. I thought she was blowing up the texting world with her almost 4,000 per month. I stay at a modest 600 texts. It doesn't serve me well to even use texting except that's the only way my daughter will contact me. LOL

Hi Stacysmom! Well, at least you know how to text her! My mother is horrible! It takes her about a good fifteen minutes to send "Hi" but don't worry, I am teaching her! lol... Thanks for responding!

I'm not as bad as your mom. I can text HI pretty quickly. But if I'm using the standard cell, I'm pretty slow my daughter says. I now have a phone with the qwerty keyboard which is better. But I hate absolutely HATE the phone. I've had nothing but trouble from it since I got it in December.

6000? isnt that a little excessive??? wouldnt that be a little to much work for your thumb? i text proberly around 80-150 a month and i consider that to be alot! usually its back and forth between my homelife and worklife, and just that little amount makes my thumb hurt sometimes! you must have one of those blackberry thingis or atleast a keyboard attached to your phone to make it easier for yourself hey?

Hey fezman! Well I guess I just have a problem! lol... Well I have an Iphone so my thumbs don't hurt! But that is my only way of communication! With a two year old and babysitting other little ones, I really don't have time for talking, just little messages here and there! Thanks for responding!

I am totally addicted to texting!!! For me it is so much easier than talking on the phone since I have kids and it's hard to talk with them in the background. Last time I paid attention to my cell bill I had sent like 1500 texts!! I know it's a crazy amount but that is the majority of my communicating with people.

i am not like you, i am very poor in sending text messages. well, if i receive one then i make it a point ot respond to the person as soon as possible. i mostly talk to the person over phone or i catch the person online for a chat.

I text a lot, too. Not anywhere near 6000 a month, but usually around 1500-2000. It's easier when you need to say somethin quick, and don't have time for a whole conversation.
