Do You Think You're Good at Media Multitasking?
If you do, that might mean you suck at it.
Although we hear all the time that women are better at multitasking than men, a new study says that regardless of gender, media multitaskers (those who simultaneously use their computers, watch TV or text on their phones, for example) aren't as good at doing several things at once as they think they are.
The study was initiated when researchers asked themselves what it was about "high multitaskers" that allowed them to do what they do so well.
Do You Play Games When Texting or Calling Back?
There are so many silly dating games that people play in order not to look too eager or worse, desperate. I knew a married woman who carried her playing hard to get into her marriage! I was shocked when she told me that she never, ever called her husband; she waited for him to call her and took her sweet time getting back to him.
Group Therapy: Is Texting Just As Bad?
My husband is having a text relationship with one of his co-workers. They text back and forth about stupid stuff, but it always has a flirtatious tone. I know it is just text messaging, but it really upsets me to the point where I am thinking about divorcing him.

A Do or a Don't: Sexy Texts

Where Do You Stand? Dating by Text

Trend Watch: Walking, Texting, and Running into Sh*t
The following story was yesterday's headline of the day, but this live-action news coverage is too good to pass up. Injuries caused by walking while texting are on the rise and a London charity has decided to do something about it. That is, they're padding lamp posts located along the "most dangerous" texting streets.
Your Very Worst Drunk Text Message
The majority of you have fallen victim to the drunk dial, but what about the drunk text? I have to assume that if you're guilty of the drunk dial then you must be plagued with a few drunk texts here and there. It's really just an easier, less direct method of the same thing — next day humiliation.
OMG! WTF? LOL?
Like a big dork, I'm one of the few people who spells everything out in text messages. (Okay, I may use the occasional abbreviation.) But dammit, I'm afraid if I give up on complete words, I'm gonna sound like this kid. It's a slippery slope.
