Welcome to the Forums!

The forum you are about to enter is coed, but until the For Young Men Only book was released, September 16, 2008, it’s been dominated by the alien gender. Discussions have centered on a variety of topics including the companion book for teen girls, For Young Women Only. We hope this forum will provide answers to questions, advice, and explanations, in a way that will help you understand the opposite sex better. Young Men…enter at your own risk!

so your saying every time you put a smiley face it means its just a joke, not you being nice or flirting?

ugh yes it bothers me when people use text slang. I can't stand it. It seems like either I'm not worth the time to spell it out or they aren't smart enough to use the whole word, even though I know they usually are!

I use 'em when flirting, joking, or just happy as a lark, or for no apparent reason. :P <---I use that one alot too.
Um, yeah, just type the whole word. I'm with Adelynn.

I used to abbreviate every word until I started using a different phone and it spelled the words for me. now I have very proper English...I think! and I use :) for any time I would be smiling if I was with the person...sadly it doesn't show exactly the kind of smile!! :(

I used to abbrevate words and then got a phone that would not tollerate slang so I switched and now hate slang, though, i dont mind it when others use it. :p

i dont think it matters to me realy people need to be themselfs, so i think if someonr says i've instead of i have it does not matter, sometimes thats just them or life just gets in the way and you just try to hurry, but at least they are themselfs in what ever way they need to to just say i'm not you, i'm me, my own person different then anyone else

I use " :P " when I'm joking or " :D " when I'm being cheesy haha I don't really put anything if i'm subtly flirting :P dont really do that through txt haha

Turn up the music
Turn it up loud
Take a few chances
Let it all out
'Cause you won't regret it
Lookin' back from where you have been
'Cause it's not who you knew
And it's not what you did
It's how you live

*stands up, hands clasped nervously* "My name is Renee and I over-use smileys."
I use them all the time, and I have never used them out-and-out flirting. If it came across as that, I didn't mean it!!!

God Can.

I have a question- how do I (verbally or subtly) let a guy I'm getting to know that it's not okay to just text me all day? I'd so rather he just called than feel like I should be typing a reply or waiting for a response! I think texting is fine sometimes, but having a whole conversation is so annoying. I have so many other things to do than wait for a reply to something that would take five seconds to say.

I had the exact same problem with one of my friends, and to tell the truth the only thing you can do is come straight out and tell them but in a nice way of course lol.

Hope this helps! :)
