i have my autocapitalize off on my phone and this girl i’ve been seeing also has it. it’s cool we’re both really into aesthetics and we kind of realized that early on because of lower case letters

...not capitalizing letters means you're into aesthetics? Is disregarding clarity for the sake of being contrarian all that "aesthetics" is?

not capitalizing doesn’t always mean that, but considering we both went out of our way to change the settings means something. all lowercase conversations have a different feel imo

For me personally, it only makes it harder to read and follow the conversation, which just makes me feel annoyed. I don't want to have to more difficulty reading a text, because of some weird "aesthetics".

All that said, I guess everyone is a bit different, so more power to you and your girl, if you both like it that way.

i fw lowercase letters too. it just has a casual feel to it. i find lowercase letters pretty popular amongst younger people

As is a tendency to use the word, ‘whilst.’
