    Question: is it socially acceptable to ask someone out on a date via text?  I ve been out of the game for awhile.

    What did you say in the message? Did you say,"can we see other people"?

    I think it is? I personally think a phone call is the way to go, but I think the idea of a real person-to-person phone call is going the way of the dodo.

    I agree with you unfortunately. And this is why the next generation will be socially awkward and only able to communicate by tapping their thumbs against a screen. They won’t be able to carry on a normal conversation. There’s my old-fashioned thinking again, damn it!

    Yeah, I only wish that I hadn’t asked my boss, who happens to be a woman, to help me figure out what the hell I was looking at.

    He did! Now we wait for her to reply, because he did it by text. :fearful:

    I would have showed up at her door with some flowers in hand. After telling her that I was coming over.

    That would be better than a text. Or maybe I'm just old.

    I suspect you are right. I know my son texts more than he speaks but he's 21. I guess I am never dating again. This thread has been very informative.

    Okay. I just asked my very young 21 year old if he would ask someone out by text and he answered. Fuck no, I'm not in middle school. FWIW.

    Yep. I was thinking about my nephew who is actually IS in middle school, and I know that he wouldn't ask someone out on a date like that either. That said, we can't say this isn't a legit way for some people to go. Like, take very very shy people... They might not ever ask anyone out on a date ever if they rule out doing it by text. I'm not overly judgemental about this one. Ultimately it's up to the person being asked to decide if that is acceptable to them or not.

    I haven't been on a date in forever so I thought I'd get an idea of how it works from  :open_mouth: my child.  That's just sad.
