I don't have a problem with texting vs. talking on phone. I am saying to save your conversation for the date or you may end burning out before the date even happens. This texting each other all day about nothing is weird, especially with a guy you haven't even had a first date with.

Do what you think is best, and yes, you do have to be yourself, I understand.

But I have had so much experience in this area and it doesn't matter whether you are 20 or 50 and an old dinosaur like me or spring chicken like you. ;-)
