So basically I completely agree with the subject and is common knowledge going around that texting should just be to get the girl out on the date. Real rapport happens with body language/tonality/eye contact that can only happen during a meetup. Now that's all fine and great, but the girl I'm gaming specifically asks me to text her more. (The context is, I only texted her to setup dates and nothing else, and she thought I wasn't interested in her).

Should I comply and start texting her more even though I don't see what the point is?
Do I listen to the community or the girl? My gut tells me you guys will say don't text her, but if that's what she wants...idk

Once you have an established connection and have hooked up with her a couple of times you can text shit about your day If you want. Rapport, comfort and attraction are already there.

Saying that let her initiate. Don't totally comply, just say "ok well, just text me during the day if you really want to." If she wants to text chat, she has to start it.
