The Rules of Text Messaging – Continued

Although I don’t have any new rules to add to the list just yet, I do want to pat myself on the back for taking my own advice. I received a text message and had two options:

1.) Not respond
2.) Respond with a nothing text

Since I was just in the position of corresponding with someone who sent me nothing text messages, I decided to go with option 1. Because to receive a text message that says nothing accomplishes nothing. It doesn’t make the receiver feel any better and it doesn’t let the sender do what they really want, which is to communicate to the receiver that they are not interested. In the spirit of do unto others, the next time I see the person I am just going to let them know I am not interested and be done with it.

Congratulations to me for taking the first step to maturity… in the text messaging department at least.
