Relationship coaches are now helping single people navigate texting.
Shortly after Abby Norton met someone she liked on Hinge last July, the 24-year-old editor went on a two-week trip abroad. Given the different time zones, she and her potential suitor struggled to establish a texting routine while she was away, although on average there were a few texts per day.
Once Norton returned to Minneapolis, where she lives, the two hung out in person, but the texting still felt unsatisfying, remaining at “a couple of times a day, despite being back in the same time zone.”

This left Norton with a lot of anxiety. “It came to a boiling point one night when I found myself crying” after not hearing from him for “a day or two” – mainly, she said, because “it occurred to me that I probably had internal issues to work through that had brought me to this point of insecurity and anxiety.”
So she decided to enlist the help of a professional in the newly emerging field of text-specific dating courses. She took a class called Texting Communication Cure Crash Course offered by licensed therapist and dating coach Kelsey Wonderlin, who is based in Nashville, Tennessee.

Wow . This pathetic nitwit is doomed. Anyone who at 24 years of age can’t navigate dating is hopeless and helpless. Good luck with your texting course, sweetie.
I knew this was from the women’s point of view...
The mass media treat men like furniture to be moved around the room at will.

Dear Abby, Dear Abby...
Here is my address, show up naked and bring beer. We will get along great

Russia and China produce steel, concrete, and energy. We produce professors in the field of “Text-specific Dating”.
The thing is, it all gets added up the same in GNP numbers, which is why a country with a relatively tiny GNP is destroying us in a war of attrition, and a country with a smaller GNP than ours is building navy ships at 5 times our rate, cars at twice our rate, and everything else at multiple times our rate.
Oh, that kind of dating.
I was thinking archeology/geology/paleontology.
Probably because I’m becoming a fossil myself.
Emotionally needy. Run away.
Emotionally needy. Run away.
And do not text.
