Why do some people write "umm" in their text messages?

You see chicks do it a lot. I just don't understand. When I text something, I always leave out stupid chit like "um" and "uh" and stuff because it makes no sense putting it in words. Plus it makes you seem less confident.

However I see chicks text stuff like "umm ok" or "uh sure" or stuff like that.

in my experience, its when the hb is not to happy with my last text.

for example:

hb: can you pick me up
me: no
hb: ummm ok

sometimes they say k with a period. "k."

Never assume a woman's tone or how she feels based on her text language though. If you interpret it the wrong way it never ends up good.

I like it when they put "..." at the end of their text. As if I need to know there is a f*cking pause after they're done writing a message. Really? You don't say. I thought your message may have just kept going but the letters were invisible. Thanks for clarifying.

"yeah... see you there later.........."

What triggered this post for me is I had a chick that by all accounts had high IL. Asked me for my number, initiated first, etc. And then when I suggested we should meet up, it's like "umm I'm in town for a week in March."

It may not mean anything, but it just pisses me off reading that umm, there. Okay, so you're aren't that into this?

Every girl has a unique "text language", but in my experience, "Ummm" is a really bad sign.
