Texting was invented for a reason....

So just a little tiny rant about dating...I truly loathe talking on the phone.  I am awkward at it.  I think it sucks.  I always talk at the same time as the other person and did I say I loathe it.   

Tall guy from last Saturday keeps calling...and I keep texting back. At what point don't you get the hint.  I mean, yes, I should be the grown up that I am aiming to be and pick up the phone but I get all icked out and just don't want to do it.  I finally told him the truth..via text, that if I talk on the phone I break out in hives and potentially could go in to anaphylactic shock (funny, word tried to auto-correct anaphylactic to anticlimactic, hmmm).  He then understood.   

He also wants to take me to dinner.  A full blown meal.  Can't we just grab a few drinks, feel it out and then decide if we are worth consuming food together?  I thought he would be all for this seeing as when I hungoverly googled and facebooked him the next day (yes- I also broke what I think is another rule...I flat out asked him for his last name so I could google him) and the first image that came up was a mug shot from a DUI last year.  I am not judging just laughing...he he he he he.

To summarize- Don't call, just text and certainly don't call back a text. Also if someone keeps suggesting drinks don't keep pushing long meals at fancy places.  Gimme my wine and let me think about ordering the shortbreads....

That is all.
