Who's turn is it in this text exchange?

Her: Hi, what's up?
Him: Getting a haircut right now? lol
Her: Oh sorry to bother you.
Him: No bother.
Her: OK.

I'd say it's up to the guy to pick up her lead. Either continue the convo or tell her he'll text later when he's finished his hair cut

@Salix75 Yeah, the final OK from her seemed kind of like goodbye. But I suppose a "what are you up to?" would have been appropriate.

@MeInCharge maybe. She may have still felt like she was disturbing you and looking for a more clear signal from you that it was a good time to chat (by picking up the convo perhaps with as "what's up?")

@Salix75 Damn. Text conversations can so easily be misunderstood.
Salix75 · 46-50, F
@MeInCharge yep :)

My approach is this... who cares who texted first or last or whatever. That seems like teenaged drama nonsense :)

If you want to chat, just send a message.
