How much do you think you text in one day?
-
too much....doesn't anybody ever just call anymore? I have these people texting wanting to know all this stuff that for me with an old style flip phone takes forever to text...I just tell them they have to call me and I will talk to them Im not texting all this. LOL..
-
Omg! That's a tough question... Easily I probably send 300 texts per day!! It's how I communicate with my family and friends while I'm at work!!! I love it!!!
-
I text all day, every day...thankfully I have umlimited texting lol!
-
not sure, a whole lot i know that lol
-
Not very much, but I am just learning how to text. But I always pull over to the side of the road to text or to talk on the phone. Tickets are to expensive and the accidents are deadly.
-
zero! I don't text and tell everyone I know not to text me because I will not reply to a text! I can't stand texting- so inpersonal and rude especially if your out with someone and all they do is text while they are at a restaurant!! My niece's do it all the time but, they are in that generation!!I wonder what some people would do without cell phones??
-
Depending on the day, anywhere from not at all, to a whole lot!
I like that texting can let you have a conversation over a period of time...like while I'm at work I can text on breaks just to chit chat...
-
I text three or more each day
-
too many to count I prefer texting I can can answer when I get a chance or when I want
-
Im not a real fan of texting. I text once it a while but I perfer talking on da phone and I only call my family and text sometime. :)
-
I average about 3-5 a day.
-
I, too, probably average around 3-5 texts per day. I simply love this new technology and don't understand why some of my peers can't be more receptive. I especially love being able to include a picture with my text. I have a new grandbaby and it's such an easy way to share pictures with friends and the whole family. Sometimes, I need the answer to a question where a simple text is so much more efficient and time saving than a phone call. It's the easiest way to get hold of my grown kids. They will almost always answer a text, but not so much a phone call.
-
I don't text alot; some days 2 to 5 but other days not at all. I was resistant at first and thought it was dumb but now I really appreciate it. Cell service at my house is weak and calls often drop but texting works. Additionally, there are certain people I want to communicate with but I know if I have a phone call with them I'll be on the phone a long time because they are big talkers. Texting is short and to the point.
-
I text quite a bit in one day, my phone broke, I had to wait a couple of week to get another one, it sucked not to be able to text....
-
I rarely text, as I prefer to talk on the phone. I guess I am old fashioned like that.
-
Zero. I don’t use the text feature at all on my mobile phone even though I receive junk text messages from T-Mobile.
-
I really don't text that much. I only have an unlimited outgoing plan so that limits me. But I prefer it this way anyways. I text my fiance a few times but that's it. This way we have the opportunity to miss each other more. I call mostly every one else I know. Sometimes I will text friends as I know they may be busy so I just pass along a "hi". I never use my phone while I am driving unless I am parked in a parking lot. I close it at hospitals, church, movie theater and I don't work at the moment but as I was a waitress I never used it while I worked either. I also keep in on silent when I go out the restaurant as a polite thing for other diners and the company that I am with. I think some people text too much. There are so many other things to do and I believe it takes away from the normal every day we used to live years ago.
-
It ranges, but on a typical day it would probably be between 10 and 20.
-
My telephone company just started giving me 250 texts and 250 free minutes (I have a government phone). Generally, I run out of minutes except for texts. The only texts I receive are from certain companies and my daughter. She loves to text. :) ;D
-
Some days i do text a lot but others i hardly use my phone. :thumbsup:
-
I would rather use my phone to talk to someone. Or go see them in person. I refuse to be glued to my phone.
-
I don't text; in fact I have texting blocked on my phone, since I was getting a lot of spam, and without a texting plan I had to pay for each one. I think it is very annoying when people sit texting all day. It is a lot quicker just to call the person and tell them what you have to say, rather than all that back and forth nonsense.
-
well to tell you the truth not alot anymore, now i spend most of my time on here making money ;D
-
I guess about 100 or so texts a day....Its much easier than talking to people on the phone!!
-
I text a couple times a week and probably make no more than 5 phone calls a week. :dontknow:
-
I text too much
-
I use to text all the time but as I have grown up threw out the years my texting has deffenitley slowed down. I am always busy now so If I do text it's short and quick to the point. I do believe that the more you text the more time you have on your hands to text.
-
Let me tell you, I do not text, however my wife she will text occasionally, whenever she receives a text from family or friends.
-
Just got a smart phone and before I was using Google to text about once or twice a month.
-
I am not sure how much I text but I do know that my minutes on my phone is more than what I text. I usually only text when I can't get on the phone. I text when I am at the doctors or if I am busy I will text them and let them know I will call later. I don't agree with texting while driving or even talking on the phone unless I pull over or let my passenger do it for me.
-
Maybe once a month to say happy birthday or ok or something short.
-
I am not good at texting but I am trying to do it. :icon_rr:
-
Texting is a better way of communicating for me because I can think about what I am going to say and not just blurt out the first crazy thing that comes to my mind.
-
I do between one and ten texts per day on average. I have unlimited minutes and texts on my phone but my mom doesn't so she we text back and forth when she runs out of minutes but in general I don't usually text many days above 10 a day unless I'm doing business on the phone.
-
ever since I have had kids I have no social life so i rarely text so maybe if i average it will be 1 a day
-
I don't texted I would rather talk to the person.
-
Don't really text.
-
Not at all
-
Not much. i am not on a plan so it can get costly. About the only one i do is one of my girlfriends and then mostly when she text me, it is because she had called and i wasn't near my phone and i will call her back as i have a lot of minutes, i mean a lot. I get really annoyed when a young person sitting at the table and spend all their time texting. I feel like it is very rude.
-
I might have text a few sentences the last two years but as you can see I don't text that much or nothing at all.
-
generally only text once a week
-
I text too much, is all i do. Im such a texter.
-
Omg! That's a tough question... Easily I probably send 300 texts per day!! It's how I communicate with my family and friends while I'm at work!!! I love it!!!
That is a lot :) I don't want to text that much so probably 5 a days for me? And I thought that was too much already. I prefer call my family and friends.
-
I rarely text. Only when I need to send a quick message for meeting up or connecting where I don't need or expect a response is when I use it. I use texting to receive text alerts which I find convenient sometimes. Otherwise if I need a conversation, I just call the person. Much more efficient.
-
i only maybee send like 6 text aday,,that aint so bad :bunny:
-
I too text only 2-3 times a day...I talk on the phone A LOT with family. That is what my whole family does instead of texting. I know some people text text text all day long.
-
I probably text about 10 tens per day. Texting is very easy and doesn't take much time.
-
i do about 5 to ten texts a day
-
I probley send and receive about 10 text a day! :cat:
-
I text about 3-4 times a week.
-
I try not to text unless I have to. I'm very slow at it and it's expensive for me. I might text 3 or 4 times a week.
-
I text a decent amount, although not as much as I used to. I no longer have a boyfriend and my best friend usually emails me instead because I get really crappy phone service and can't always receive/send messages.
I sorta miss the old days it seems like we are just all really disconnected now.
-
Im not really a texter. I like to talk to people.
-
that is a hard question i don't count how much i text every day i dont think most people do
so i guess for me it must be alot
-
Very, Very little. I keep it to a minimum not because of limits-have unlimited. Always busy doing something else.
-
depends on if my son is home. if he is not a lot, if he's at a friends I tend to text more so I can keep up with him
-
Some days ten, some days none. It pretty much depends on if someone sends me a text. I am rarely the one to start it, but I will respond to them. They definitely have their place, but I just feel they are completely over used.
-
I have a couple friends that live a bit of a distance away, so I text them about once or twice a week. I would say that is my average.
-
On a slow day...nothing. If there's something going on with the family I may send and receive 10 to 12 in a day. I need a phone with a bigger screen.
-
I do about 10 text per day,,sometimes more sometimes less :bunny:
-
I only text my husband. Otherwise I really do not care for texting, cell phones or phones in general. I'd rather speak with family and friends in person. I have friends who are constantly texting and talking on the phone. Very annoying.
-
Texting has become part of my everyday life so i text almost all hours of the day. I do not text driving or any way i can get hurt or worse someone else hurt. I would never do that. Texting Is Basically why i have my phone it connects me with everyone alot faster. Especially my brother he just went into the navy and sometimes he just wants to know someone is thinking about him and missing him. Which we all do.
-
Maybe 20 to 40 texts a day depending.
-
A lot. I probably send 50-100 text a day to family, friends, coworkers.
-
too much lol
-
Too much to count.I don't know what I would do if I couldn't text.LOL
-
Most of the time none. But sometimes a lot.
-
I don't text at all, I only have a really old time cell phone. I know sooner or later I will have to get a more modern phone but it's just so expensive.
-
I've never counted how many texts I do in a day.
I do know that texting has been a fun way to touch base with the kids.....just a quick text saying whatever...or a quick text with a picture included with it.
We text between co-workers too to find out if someone can come in early or to let the boss know that something has happened at the site (group home)...texting is easier than calling; plus then there is a record that the situation got reported.
