The problem with texting is it is just words and sometimes when you get together, it is not as exciting. Is this a problem? Well, probably if this feeling continues.
So, the scenario is – you might meet someone at a venue and the good morning and good night texts start and texts in between and then you meet, but something is not right – what do you do?
I think, give yourself a chance because you initially met this person in the flesh before you started texting.
Some things to remember about texting:
1. In comparison (texting to meeting) it might just take the person a little while to re-adjust.
2. A person may not have had a lot of experience with texting.
3. It is easy to text without full commitment.
4. A shy person can text.
5. People can hide behind their phone and be who they are not. People can sound like an energetic person with words and exclamations, but this might not be the case in real life.
So, basically, your concern might be warranted, but don’t be too hasty in ending it all. Be considerate and assess all aspects. If someone thought you were a bit weird you would like to be given a real chance.

Well wait just a gosh-darned second there. This guy texting her is also trying to finagle her into wanting him… he isn’t being forthright about it… he isn’t being upfront… he’s just thinking that if he texts her enough, she’ll end up being his girlfriend.

Hi Carlene, I think people must not make important life decisions based on texting information only. Texting can be a way to start-up initial conversations, but people need to request other ways to get to know the person. If the person just wants to text, then this is not healthy or positive for a future friendship/relationship! Thanks, Sharyn.
