I have to admit Im guilty of being an avid texter. I despise talking on the phone atleast with texting I dont have to think of an excuse to get off the phone I can just either stop talking to someone or tell them I have to go without feeling guilty. I recently got to see my bill (we have a family plan with BFs brother) I used barely 3 hours worth of talking a month and its all because of conversations I have with my mom who does not shut up. Now that she has a verizon cell phone, I told her good now you dont have to call me anymore just text me then if I dont want to talk I dont have to ignore your phone call.
The only person I text all the time is my BF I update him throughout the day to see how he is doing, let him know what Im doing stuff like that while hes at work. Other than for talking to him I dont need a cell phone but since we dont have a house phone I have to have it. Plus having a Blackberry I tether it to my computer to get high speed internet. Thats pretty much the only reason I have my phone regardless of texting or talking. But atleast while Im a texter Im a responsible one, I dont text while driving, I dont do that shorthand text crap (thats super annoying trying to decipher what someone is actually saying) and I dont walk and text because I like to see where Im going. LOL
