When a female and male are communicating via text messaging and the female replies with two words or less, the male may not respond. Only exception is if the female is asking a question that consists of only two words. Also, smiley faces count as one word.
Male to another Male: I really want to text Sarah back but I can't because of the two word rule.

Male: Hey, what are you doing tonight?
Female: Nothing much.

Male: How are you?
Female: Good.
