Maybe he's chatty or really, really into you? I wouldn't necessarily overthink it, lol. Well, unless, he's texting you pics of his penis.

Most men like to see pics of various girl bits. More women find texted pics of guy bits awkward or weird than find them appealing. Most women are fans of the boy parts when seen in person, but this is a case where the 1000 words describing the picture may not be ones you want directed at your pride and joy.

Nope, I would run! 16 uninitiated texts is to much. I once went out with a guy for a short time and he was stalker material. He would call and let the phone ring like 40 times and then call back over and over He had to go!!! Never so thankful that he didn't know where I lived or it would have been very scary!

Damn....after like the 90th thread of people giving out their cell phone number and then getting upset because the person they gave it to happens to use it....how about we just don't give them our number? Problem solved. One does not have to give their number to every Tom, Dick and Harry who asks for it. And if you have a friend who gives your number out to random guys, ditch the friend and get a new number.
Jeez.

For years I gave out an ex BF's phone number when I didn't want someone to call me. It was wrong. I wonder how many calls he ever got for me.

Jeez. Yep, it's a little odd to me to think about giving out my number since I do just about everything possible to not give it to anybody. Heck, there was a while when I was annoyed at DH for shirking all the little niggly tasks, meaning that I had to do all the random stuff around not only the house but work as well or it just would never get done. So whenever someone asked for my number or I had to fill it in on a form - I gave them his cell number. He was very puzzled why everyone from the boys' school, to random strangers, to pretty much every vendor and customer of our business started calling his private cell phone. Passive/aggressive and I'm not proud of it, but it did make me feel a little better.
So - I view giving out a phone number as a punishment and to torment people and pretty much expect if you give it out you have to expect weird calls.

Have you told him you think that many texts, one right after another, is inappropriate? That's where I'd start.

Maybe it is all one text and his phone is breaking it into multiple texts? He may not know taht there is a limit on what u can text and be essentially trying to write an email's worth of stuff in a text?
Not everyone is tech savy and sometimes, when you are trying to text what you would say, it ends up looking a lot longer than if you just said it. The phones can then "break it up" into text 1, 2....etc so it shows up as multiple when it really should have been 1 rambling thought...

Ok, that is just straight up bitchy. If I was dating someone and they were upset because I didn't do X, Y, or Z, and instead of telling me they were upset, they responded by giving out my cell number to strangers, I would them and tell them to come back when they've grown up. That is straight up childish. How old were you when you did this? At least you realize it was wrong and aren't proud of it, because damn.

But dangling marriage like a carrot in front of someone so that they conform to what you think they should be is ok?

We've been married 25 years now, so there have been times when we have struggled to communicate effectively like adults and not 9 year olds. But trust me when I tell you that I had clearly and calmly stated what the issue was way prior to me getting to that point. Sometimes things go on for so long that the other person is not able to "hear" discussion any more, so there's not much point in continuing to talk. Then you decide if you live with the issue or just move on. I decided to live with it after I was able to get a little of my frustration out of my system. Trust me also when I say that giving his phone number out to a few annoying strangers was far nicer than the first 27 things I thought about doing to him.

Honestly, I am starting to think online conversation and dating someone should be mutually exclusive of each other.
Wanna hang out, awesome - when.
Texting is a pain, leads to misunderstandings, helps people cheat, and I think ultimately it creates bullshit.

Not quite sure how to go on dates without someone having your phone number at some point. Not sure how this turned around to be "oh how stupid you are for giving your number" that's the whole point of a phone is to have people reach you is it not?

If you're not sure about someone, give them your email. And, while you're at it, create a separate email address for dating. It's a lot harder to track an email to an address than a phone number.

Nutty, You can get one of those Google voice phone #s. You can have it go to your computer or forward to phone. It's free & allows you to decide to cut someone off if they go weird on you and they don't have your actual cell #. My first question was going to be "is he in his 20's?" Kids send hundreds of texts back and forth in a day. 1/2 of them are LOL, BRB and junk like that. What were the 16 texts? Maybe he thought he was being cute? "thinking of you" "had fun talking" "you are funny" . . . sent at intervals seems like someone trying to tell you they are thinking about you in a cute way. If he sent 16 full conversations, then maybe a whacko!! You did not meet this person at your regular bar hangout did you? Is he gonna be showing up there all the time to try to run into you now?

To know me better am I a piece or someone to comfort & give you peace. Rub you down to pleasure your soul or to fuck around & to get your own. What is that you seek my dear,to comfort your ears & except what you hear. All I can give is passion & heart, to ravish you,thats only the start I'm drawn in by who you are ,but your eyes captured me ,to guess who you are? Be my lov...

Makenme, & instruct to master you, or just keep going .i want to be the reason it feels good, lol sleepy head ) What is your deal, I would almost drink your bath water, I said almost. I kinda give out, you seem like a girl that wants the world & more & i can only promise to lick you up & down get you where you want to be. Whatever your deal is, I like you, I think you are pretty. I like that you are from London, blame that on my pops & yes its a turn on. I cant wait to tas te your lips, feel your finger nails in my back. Honestly I hope I can make it better for you mind, body & soul. I want to rule your fantasy & make is som
