Texting/Email Friends

I was wondering how do people feel about this and do they like it. I mean texting and calling as friends not sexting or anything.

 

I don't understand the question

 

I am sorry about that, guess I didn't clarify I meant to ask does anyone here have or want a texting/email buddy? I by that I mean like a good friend to text or talk to when they are feeling down or just shoot the breeze.

 

NBM88,I just ask if they got my e-mail or IM. Plus I give my name. If they answer it is all good.

 

I know that not a lot of people believe in friendship between men and women but I like having male friends. If they are gay it makes things easier of course, but I also like to have hetero male friends. I have one male friend that I know for almost 13 years now and we sms, email or talk on the phone just as friends. He tells me about the women he dates and I tell him about my interesting encounters. We can give each other advice.
As long as both parties are ok with "NO SEX", it's all good

 

I couldn't do that. Only because I'm a seriously bad pen/text/email pal. LOL Everyone in my life knows how terrible I am at keeping in contact. It's a bit of a joke. Thank Zuckerburg for facebook. :smt005

 

Me too, i get distracted very easily.

 

Me too, but it is indeed difficult

 

I like texting/emailing (not so much talking on the phone, unless it's an emergency). But I recently had to block someone who I thought was just a friend (he's married with 2 kids), because he thought I should see his erect penis. I was shocked and grossed out to get it from him (it was completely unsolicited and I've NEVER flirted with the man). From my single friends, well that's a different story :smt029

 

Athena- I am happy to see you!

 

What's the fun in no sexting?! Juuuust kidding........................maybe

I have 2 male friends who text me all the time. I enjoy their conversation more than my female friends most of the time! Everyone leads such busy lives nowadays, it seems easier to communicate via text/email. Plus, I love being able to bounce things off of a man to get a different perspective! I'm a fan of text buddies :smt023

 

I like having females friends to conversate with, you know getting a female perspective on things. would love too meet one here to chat and text with.

 

Some friendly advise because you seem like a sweet guy:

If you want a friend to text, just ask someone. No reason to be shy...it's the internet, no one knows who you are lol! The worst she'll say is no. Message people who interest you and get to know them that way. You've got to put yourself out there if you want to meet new people

 

Thank for the compliment and you seem like a very cool lady yourself.

 

I have had this kind of ''relationship'' and it was ok, but just far too impersonal for me. He would email me once or twice a day, and I would reply, just general ''hi, how ya doing'' stuff, and after a while, I just didn't see any point.
It was all starting to feel a bit mechanical and dull.
I mean, maybe thats just that one particular case, but I need more than that. I need something physical, even if I don't see them very often.

 

RaiderLL,you must had good friends for you to sext and not have your words be spread across the web.

 

More like a mutual understanding And honestly, I'm pretty comfortable in my sexuality so if someone wanted to be a douche and publish our "sexting" conversations, it wouldn't be a huge deal to me. I'm not ashamed of who I am, or what I like. Sexting is just a more personal form of porn. Some people are into it, and some aren't. Me...I'm a fan

 

Even though I don't have a iphone or Sansung phone I would have good mutural friends if I had one. Besides,you are confortable with it and fortunate since it takes courage and guts.

 

This is SO me.
Unfortunately, the person I live with does not like this and is always giving me shit for constantly texting on my phone and IM instead of actually talking.
It's so bothersome sometimes to keep a conversation going. I have to actually be present to participate.
It's not like a person on the other end of the phone can bring up a point or ask a question and you can delay for half an hour or 45 mins with a response.
She does not understand it and is always bitching that I live on my phone.

Um, Yeah.

Pretty much.

 

oh I have had a 'sext' thing too, it was actually really hot, but after a while, it was just (literally) an anti-climax. It just seemed a bit mad to be saying all these filthy things to someone that I was never actually going to meet in person.
Lasted maybe a week or so, and I got bored and wanted an actual real life man, which is what I got, so now when I text filth, I know its actually going to have a physical response pretty soon when I see him!

Neither thing works for me, I need physical presence, like I said before.
