I always send texting messages because my ears are out of order.
I usually send text messages but sometimes I prefer to send voice messages in wpp because that way I can better convey my feelings
I like sending messages to my boyfriend instead of phone calls
Personally, I like sending messages because I don't know whether my friend is available now or not.

Hello Russel Uz,
The first message is "Hey! Want to meet for a drink after work?" and the reply is positive ("Cool, what time do you finish?"). Thus, we know they are going for a drink and the answer to 'They are going to have a drink" is 'True'.

I prefer text messages because it is simple and we can connect each other all the time. When we want to make a plan, we talk with voice messages or on the phone directly.
I always send texts 'cause I'm telephonophobic!

I prefer send the message, I don't like speak for mobile phone
