I don't always. Sometimes I do. Depends who it is to and the purpose of the text.
Call me Patti, as that would drive me nuts, too.One thing that drives Patti nuts is close friends that text vice call. So they will spend 30 to 45 minutes texting back and forth - asking, answering, clarifying, etc. She does not understand why they so not just call and get the whole communication/arranging done in 5 minutes or less.
Oh boy, this would be me, as my texting is landline so it would be from my laptop, as much talk ability as a Tug post. probably anyone that has seen me here knows that I can be long winded.For me, texting isn't the place to be chatty. Short, succinct, to the point, straight info. My first-ever text was to my kids, and I was scolded for "talking" too much.
No salutations. Except to Patti - professing my Love for her.
I don’t like typing on my phone either ... so 80%+ of my texting is through my iPad or laptop. If I must text via phone I lean the phone’s dictation feature pretty heavily ... but then I must go back and edit as it doesn’t seem to have context for half of my common communications. I don’t think dictation has ever understood the invitation/question: “Hay run?”I don't like typing on my phone so I like to be as brief as possible.
