Hard to text

Not sending a reply text message for a given amount of time to avoid appearing as an easy catch.

You've played hard to get in the real world, why be an easy catch when it comes to texting. Sometimes you need to play hard to text.

dumped by text

painful. At least wait until you see them tomorrow or call them and talk. The giver, an easy way of ridding themselves of a person who still likes/loves them and not having to deal with the look that they'll get and/or tears and/or death threats and Hell exploding. They usually don't text back to what their ex replies, leaving the receiver very confused and wondering, 'what did I do??!' For the receiver, harsh. This person may/will feel depressed for a time, ranging from a millisecond to the rest of their life. This person is usually comforted by people she/he hardly knows. Almost everyone you see is on your side, even your now ex's family. The giver, receiver, neither, or both will give their now ex's number to friends. Then the giver will receive death threats and what the hell is wrong with you? texts, over and over again. The receiver will receive texts from their ex's freinds being immature Dr. Phil's. Others will text the receiver asking them out now that they know they are single or trying to make them feel creepily wanted. The receiver will also want to think that the text was sent as a joke from one of their friends, but know that it's real. However it works out, the two don't usually talk to eachother for a while.

After I was dumped by text, I as the receiver got many texts from his friends telling me that I was their friends, my now ex was wrong, and they were my friend or in love with me. Everyone at the dance heard about it and said that they were sorry for me in at least fifteen minutes of the breakup. His friends told me to say the word and they would make him regret every letter he texted into his phone to make up that text. Another of his friends, the one who had hooked us up, said that he was now not gonna drop his title as the "love doctor" because he didn't wanna hook up innocent, loving girls with assholes who couldn't even break up with them face-to-face.

Text Shield

The act of using a person of large size to conceal the action of texting in an area where cell phone use is forbidden and/or frowned-upon.

This technique has also commonly been seen using a purse or a table.

I used that kid Mike as a text shield so I could reply to Eric's message.

text-jesting

A welcome activity that distracts you from the boredom of your everyday life. Involves texting amusing movie quotes, song lyrics, inside jokes or general randomness back and forth with a text-jester. Usually lasts until one out-jests the other.

Yesterday I did not do ANY work. I was too busy text-jesting with your dad from 12-4pm. It began with him sending one that said, 'I am a robot. I have a robot vagina.'
and my reply, 'My cock is lost in the jungle and it's up for you to find it.'

Chain text bitch

something you become when someone asks for your phone number and never texts you to talk, only to send you those stupid chain text messages.

(chain texter):"FWD: FWD: send this to ten people in the next 10 minutes or you will never fall in love again."

(text receiver): "stop sending me those texts! im not your chain text bitch!!"

Initiatory Text Ratio

When a texter sends the first text, usually along the lines of "Hey what's up?? :)", this is known as the initiatory text. Through comparing the average number of initiatory texts sent by two participants to each other, an initiatory text ratio can be determined. The ITR is a clear indicator of who is the more interested of the two. If for every five initiatory texts you send, there is usually one in return, the ITR is 5:1 in the textee's favor, and you're just not in good shape. Ideally a 1:1 ratio is reached, but only in the most compatible of relationships. The ITR is on the same level of dependability as the theory of gravity itself.

"Dude, how are things going with Amanda???"

"Not good, the Initiatory Text Ratio is around 15:1, i might as well give up now,"

"I don't blame ya bro, the ITR never fails."
