text messaging

Text messaging. I love it, this is how i stay in contact with friends, family, well just about anyone. I have heard of the occasional text fight, but never have experienced one till the other day. let me tell you, it was full fledge name calling, hitting below the belt phrases, everything, how mature was this.. ITS WASN'T. it was the most ridiculous thing ever. And it ended the relationship that I was in with that person because of this "fight". Why can't people just pick up the phone and have a conversation, why do they have to "hide" behind their phone so to speak. But its over, its done, and i hope it never happens again.
