Get the texting friends mug.
two people who only seem to be friends while text messaging. When one attempts to talk to the other in a public place, the other person acts like they don't know the other, or as casual friends.
*text message*
Corin: Hey! are you going to the party on Saturday? we should totally hang out!

James: OK, sweet can't wait to see you there!

*at party*

James to Corin: hey hows it going?

Corin: oh hey....(turns around and talks to another person.

*Dudes across the room*

A lame ass friend that will only text you, rather than call or hang out in person.
She's a worthless text-a-friend; she simply texts me and never wants to hang out.
