Hi everyone,

I am not asking for advice but perhaps starting some sort of poll.

Who thinks that texting is to blame for a lot of relationship problems and affairs etc?!!!

I don't think texting is to blame, texting is just an easy more discrete way of communicating, and so would be the probable choice of communication for those who are cheating or being secretive about something. However, a mobile could be the device that catches you out haha, if your significant other happens to read a text from one's bit on the side!!

I think texting makes it easier for people to keep communications secretive if they are having an affair or want to have an affair but ultimately its a poor relationship or bad set of decisions that leads someone to have an affair in the first place. I have to admit that I think texting (sending and receiving) when in the company of other people is pretty unsociable and for that reason its an invasion of time and focus and can undermine the attention people may have once given to just one person. Networking sites also have the same positives and negatives - some days I just want to bin my mobile phone and my computer because I feel overloaded with information about other peoples lives!! However this doesn't mean I'm having an affair.

No i find that it is a great way to stay in touch during work and is a fun way to mess around.

I don't think texting is to blame, I just think it is a poor way to communicate when problems actually do occur, and often many things can be miscomprehended, even a simple joke. (usually happens when boys/girls don't keep it simple for s simple way to communicate)
