Why don't providers seem to be okay with an email or text message?  Trying to keep my activities under the radar, sometimes - a quick text message is both safe and convenient.  

Just curious

In my opinion
If you email first letting that person know that you will be texting them, I think that you should fine.

BUT for me if you text the first time I tend to ignore those texts because I think it's someone who is wasting my time.  Just like someone who calls from a private number and won't give me a call back number. To me that person is not serious about setting up an appt.

We use a call-forwarding service. This allows us to give out a bogus number and it forwards to our real phone number. Unfortunately, this service does not allow text messaging.

Many of us local ladies use this service. ; )

It might be they don't want a permanent record of the conversation or maybe they don't want to have to pay for the message.

I don't give my number out until you've been screened, so email works best!

After you have been screened, a text message is fine especially for updates: "On 494, be there in 10," stuff like that.

I'm not a big texter, don't have the phone set up for it and agree with Sophie, when it comes to new never met friends.  When a gentleman calls, I really like an introduction, and a little bit about themselves as well as any references they can provide me with ways to get a hold of them. I am pretty easy going, but its frustrating to have someone call or text and just say, where are you located? or are you available? when they have not even told me who is calling.  I am happy to hear from you, but introduce yourself and don;t be shy! for your safety and mine sweethearts!! xxxoo J.

Or so a little birdie told me; that sending texts is the preferred M.O. of LE.

SHE texted me first, so I thought, ok, I'll text her back, then she text back and then I did and then she did and...you get the point. Then she finally calls and says, are you a cop? Because only a cop texts that much, that's how they do. So... there you have it.

Just call.

In my book texting is a privilage earned.

Other wise I won't answer to people who do so.
Especially ones who don't know the meaning of discreet or polite. ;)
