Alice: I only text to arrange meeting up

Alice, 28, English teacher  

I only use texts for practical stuff like "Meet you outside the cinema at 8." My husband and I aren't into sentimental stuff: we live together, we see each other all the time and we don't need to send each other texts all the time to show we love each other. And I don't really like texts anyway: I never write abbreviations and I'd rather just chat on the phone if I want to talk to someone.
