Hows your txting starting?

[tloonya]

When you text your immediate family members whom you text with every day, do you start with pleasantries like Good morning, how are you? etc...
I just thought of it because we never do, I had just texted my DD and it was my first txt today 'superball sucked, right?' and I thought I didn't even said hi.
Same with all the other friends and family. I dunno why I am talking about it...

First things first, "superball"?

No intro needed. People text so they can avoid pleasantries and get right to the point.

I always give a greeting.  Good morning ..... Hi hon ....... etc.

Probably my age group.  We are still the 'pen and paper' set.

If it's been a while I'll start with "Hey there!" and then get to the point.

Thanks, that's what I thought. We love txting because we don't have to go 'how are you doing' with no intention to listen how are you actually doing AND 'you hang up first, no you hang up first' can avoided completely.

Actually I am thinking if annoying people can still do this texting.
Hugs.
Hugs at ya!
Huggily-doo to you!
No, I hug you more...
No way you hug me more!lol
I so hug you more...
No you don't.
You are mean!
Back at ya, meannie!
Ok, O think we shouldn't text each other anymore...
I am breaking up with you.
No, I broke up with you first.
...and so on...lol

Depends- usually I start with "hey"

When texting:

my son: Hey Bud....

DH: Hey Honey......   

BFF: Hey Chief..... (I call her chief (as in CEO) and she calls me Boss)

other friends:  depends on which friends.  Some of my friends are a little raunchy and texts start out with "hey bitch". The conversations we have would make most men in locker rooms blush.  My more conservation friends I'll start with "hello" or "Hi"

If it's the Bossman I start off with "sir" and then start the text. Professionally I start off with "Hello" or Good Morning or something like that.

My texts are mostly to DH and say something like "I got the kids" or "get milk"

I don't text my family daily- is that strange? 

And when I do, I don't usually give a greeting or anything, I just text what I need to say.
