Is your relationship based on SMS?

by Jayvee on August 7th, 2007

SMS is catching up with the west. Back here in the east, couples buy secondary phones to avail of unlimited SMS promos within cellular networks. What does this mean? For the high maintenance couples, it says something about wanting to be in touch 24/7, and have no excuse NOT to text back.

But it also means that couples do rely on SMS as a significant means of communication, rather than making actual phone calls.

I’l ask you now - how many SMS messages do you send a day to your loved one, compared to calling. Back here, the price of 8-10 SMS messages is more or less equivalent to one minute on the phone. If I can make my message clear in less than 10 exchanges of text, then it would mean that SMS would be the valued medium of choice.

But you know … personally, if I have an issue to discuss with a friend or significant other, I’d rather meet them in person than send text. It’s more meaningful that way.
