With the technology age rapidly emerging into our everyday lives, interaction with another person no longer has to be achieved through direct communication. Years ago, people had to actually dress themselves just for the occasion of conversing with a friend. However, technology has since evolved. Nowadays, one flick of a button can submit a text message half away across the world to someone you haven't seen in years. Even better, these text messages can portray your every emotion, contain some humorous pictures or even possess an astounding video downloaded directly off the Internet. Things can not be better and we really do need to appreciate this phenomenon.

Fortunately for us, people are really making use of this advance in technology, and it is now apparent that almost every person you speak to has a mobile phone. It's even slightly 'dorky' if you don't own one of these beauties! Therefore, if you're in a relationship with a person it's almost compulsory that you obtain their number. But once you do acquire your partner's number, it's up to you to be careful about what you text to them.

Hopefully within the next few minutes you'll realise what you should and shouldn't be texting to your partner. One crucial mistake could cost you big time!

-DO regularly text your partner back. If you do not, he or she will most likely be offended and distrust your faith in the future. You don't want to shed tears over being lousy. If you are not going to be available in terms of phone use for a while, at least get the message across to them before it is too late.

-DON'T lend your phone to a friend. Even if they claim they're perfectly capable of keeping care of your phone, you really can't be sure. It's like disposing of $200 for a few days; would you really want to do it? Besides, what happens if they start getting funny... you don't want them to 'accidentally' break up with your girlfriend or boyfriend.

-DO remember your partner's birthday. Whilst you would reap greater benefits from purchasing a present, a simple text message can also make a world of a difference.

-DON'T break up with your partner through text messaging; it resembles sheer weakness and isn't enough to explain your reasons for ending the relationship.

-DO get familiar with your date's hobbies and interests. A great way to achieve this is through text messaging, and you'll find yourself
