text teasing

When someone texts you, often about something important, you text them back, then…….SILENCE.

"I'm so over Jennifer. She's famous for text teasing. She always leaves me hanging with these super important texts, I respond right back, then NOTHING. I'm gonna start calling her out on it…"

text curb

When you receive a bunch of texts from someone and you reply with a one word answer, essentially blowing them off so that they stop texting you.

Is that all you have to say to me? I sent you all these heartfelt texts and you give me a one word text?? Are you giving me the text curb??

Text trap

A text message that someone only sends so they can call you when you reply, because now they know your phone is in your hand.

I don’t want to reply to her yet, she always text traps me. Why do we need a 5 minute phone call about something I ALREADY ANSWERED IN MY TEXT?!

Text-lashing

A series of at least three consecutive, uninterrupted texts in which the sender scolds the recipient. Modern day equivalent of a tongue-lashing.

While Randy set down his smart phone for a few minutes to attend to something, his girlfriend used her smart phone to unleash a severe text-lashing over something he had done.
