To each his own. I guess that using all those other forms of electronic communication are ok, but since you cant/dont want to text, then its just plain wrong. Whats not personal about a text that is personal with an email? Its the same thing, just with less sentences, and you get it on the go instead of sitting behind a computer. All those people that you e-mail, you could just as easily pick up the phone, and call right? So what's the difference?
