drive-by texting

A text message sent by someone to try to stir things up, but when a response is made, no further messages are sent.
Similar to a drive-by shooting because after the assailant has disappeared, the victim is left riled up and frustrated.
Girl (out of the blue): "Haven't missed a beat have you?"

Guy: "What makes you say that?"

An hour passes with no response

Guy: "Drive-by texting?"

pillow texting

verb: "Pillow texting" happens in place of pillow talk - when you are not together but each of you are in your respective beds texting each other "good night"s, "wish you were here"s, etc. This invariably leads to sexting.
TJ - Our pillow texting doesn't hold a candle to our pillow talk. ;-)

Ann Marie - Pillow texting will have to tide us over until we can have our real pillow talk. :-*
