How many times do you text in a day?
They say over 100 text a day is excessive.
I am guessing anywhere from 25-100 depending on whether those conversations become drawn out or not. I usually try to use text messaging as a quick way to have a short conversation. More and more I notice that I have started using it as a main method of conversation. I'm not worried. Things will always change. Soon we won't have to talk. Wow! That could be good and bad in so many ways.
Believe it or not, zero! I am young, I have had my own cellphone for more than four years, but I've just never gotten into texting. I have probably sent only about five or six texts in my entire life. Part of the reason is that I do not have a high-tech phone, so sending a text is rather awkward. I may get more into texting if I ever get a better phone. But I don't think I'll ever be too tied to it.
I do not think I text a lot, but I counted and I sent 38 text today!
When am in Kenya,Probably upto 200 texts a day.They have a permanent offer of like 500 sms for $0.12 a day.
I don't text much at all. Maybe three times in a month I might text something.
ten times a day the maximum. It depends on what am doing or a particular task.
A few times a week, That is because my son's friends' Moms' only text to set up play dates. I would be happy if I never sent another text in my life. My husband and I also just down graded our phones and dropped the data packages. By doing this we have saved close to $800 a year. No we don't miss our high tech phones. Before we did this our phone bill was $2,424 a year. Crazy ...
I am not a cell phone-alholic...I carry it in my purse and forget it is there...I do, however, text to my daughter and sister - and, for dinner plans - my husband at work. Period. It is easier to reach my sis and my daughter via text as they are never home.
That being said, I am allowed 500 free texts a month - then I get charged and I have to pay. I have only gone over that quota once, during a circumstance with my sister where a lot of texting was done. Hasn't happened since. I think I usually hit maybe 200 a month, or less. I do not like to text, so I often talk into the microphone. PS: I think my nephew goes over 1000 a month.
It really depends on who I want to communicate with. Sometimes I'll find myself doing 30 - 50 texts whereas on other days I'll barely text two times.

Do you think texting is a disrespectful way of communication?Texting has become a main focus for individuals in the age group of 17 and 25. How do you feel about texting? Do you think it is better to converse face-to-face?

Do you think it's okay to break up with someone by texting or by email?It used to be the 'rule' that you broke up with a boyfriend or girlfriend in person, out of respect for the relationship you once had. Now, however, people also break up by phone, through email or even by texting. What do...

To all the people who don't have the decency to return my call and don't RSVP with a phone call but send a text instead:Oh, so you send a text instead? Rude. You could at least call me to decline. Maybe it's easier for your lazy butt not to have to move your mouth to speak in an intelligible...
