Ex-Ting

Best described as communication via text from your Ex. Most times random and unexpected, these messages can be anything from a simple hello to a series of harrassing texts that go on for days. The Ex for whatever reason can not let go or still feels a need for manipulation or intimidation. I have found that in the majority of the cases encountered, the Ex is not fufilled in their current relationship and the texts serve as a half-hearted attempt to test the waters. The best thing to do is ignore the text but if you must respond always be sure to be clear and concise in whatever point you are trying to relay. Text is not the most effective way to communicate serious topics and you will find that a quick phone converstation will help your EX get the message. If all else fails with the unsolicited Ex-ting, most carriers will be happy to change your number for you sometimes with a small fee. Worth it for the peace of mind especially if you don't have free texting plan.
