Screw it, Im texting.

     Texting while your in a social situation is fine. I believe that texting opens new doors for socializing with other people. What if the women paying for her groceries was texting her husband to start the car and wait for her at the front, it is a faster and more convenient way to talk to another person. But I also believe that texting shouldn't be your main priority, for example, you shouldn't text a lot at a party  for you are missing opportunities to meet and bond with people.

     Although it is rude for somebody to proceed texting continuously on their cell phone while your talking to them, it is a good strategy to ignore the person. There is a situation where your brother is nagging on doing his chores, but you continue to ignore his voice by pulling out your phone. Another situation is having a conversation with your friend, until the awkward silence approaches when you have noting to talk about, you don't want to just sit there and do noting, so you pull out your phone and pretend to text or check for text messages.
     
     The 5 rules of texting is you should not text someone in the same room, this a simple rule, but is broken all the time. Another rule is do not join group texts with 5 more more people, unless you want your phone to vibrate and ring every second. Another rule would not to multitask while texting, do not text and drive at the same time. Do not spam random texts especially chain letters to your friends, unless you want black eyes. The last rule really applies to me, you need to reply fast when you receive texts, and not wait a couple days to reply or your friends will never text you again.
