Ask a Very Smart Brotha Live: Textaholics & Down Low Dudes

- By

Danielle: Damon, is there any hope for a relationship between texter and a talker? I am a talker and I struggle with trying to get to know a man via texting. Once we get to know each other, I am more open to it but not for complete “textversations.” Yet, since texting has become so pervasive, I find that many of the men I meet prefer to communicate primarily via texting. Any suggestions on how to get them to compromise and call more often?

D.Y.:  I don’t mind texting or calling, but I know some people a very attached to one or the other. With that in mind, if I were you I’d just tell men that you prefer talking on the phone (or in person). If a guy cares enough about you, he’ll heed your demand.
