Oh, I misunderstood you. I thought you were saying people don't like it when you DON'T text back right away. I didn't realize there were people who didn't like getting a quick response.
I like getting a quick response but if i like a girl i have to fight my self not to text her right back got to make her wait . It sucks i do not want to seem desperate. I hate playing games but you have to now days to.
It might just be my demographic, but I'm used to most men and women not liking to talk on the phone much these days. I find the phone to be best only for really brief things in situations where texting isn't practical, such as while driving, or if something needs to be conveyed that isn't easily typed. I find long, drawn-out phone conversations to be annoying, walking around holding a chunk of plastic to my ear listening to somebody blab at me through it. The sound quality on cell phones isn't as good as land-lines were back in the day, and when you combine that with my gradually failing nearly-middle-aged-dude hearing and all the background noise on calls (from traffic, etc.), it's just a grating experience all-around. I'd rather just get together in person to have a real conversation, complete with body language, touching, kissing, and food and drinks.
I'd rather get together in person too, but in the meantime, if we're going to connect somehow, I'd rather it be by talking on the phone than texting. At least I can hear their tone of voice. It's difficult for me to connect with someone through text. If we're talking by text, the only who will be enjoying it and connecting is him.

Yeah, I'd just rather text to arrange a time to get together. If there's time to chit-chat on the phone for an hour or two, there's time to just get together instead. (Unless you're talking about a long-distance relationship where you only see each other every few weeks or months. Even then I'd probably rather Skype than use the phone, though.)

You need to learn how to read body language. It will serve you very well in life. Learn how to read words and their use to get inside a texters head. You will be able to do it on a forum such as this too.

I hate games like this too. It's sad that you think you have to play them with all girls.
I agree agree with the OP that texting isn't good for new relationships. People seem to think it's an adequate substitute for actual communication. Plus, it's annoying having to answer every little bleep your phone makes. Once you're an adult you probably have other things to do than tend the phone.
I don't know if I would consider it a dealbreaker necessarily but I would question our compatibility. Personally I enjoy texting here and there throughout the day as opposed to sitting down for a lengthy time frame and talking. One of my Ex's preferred talking (although we would still text quite often at the time) on the phone regularly and it would often leave me frustrated. Although I have an introverted personality too.
