Texts can be easily misunderstood in the earlier stages of dating and getting to know someone. My first rule of thumb is text/say everything in a way you would want to receive it. If you don't understand, reply, "What??" The dos and don't can be simple if you look at it this way. Don't understand? Ask. Don't text angry. There is nothing wrong with waiting until you calm down to talk things out. Righteous anger or not, it never gets either party anywhere. Don't send bad news, and lastly, don't over abbreviate. Remember, ask yourself how you would want to hear it.
The do's are simple also. Sweet nothings, yes. Long distance, yes. A couple times before a first date, actually makes most people feel more comfortable. Another good idea, respond ASAP.
Treating people the way you want to be treated is an old school action to live by. It must be working, it's still around!
