Demetrius would have called

Is it just me? Am I too old-fashioned? Or is the following scenario perfectly acceptable?

I've been getting a lot of attention from a fellow named Lysander (so named because he claims to love Shakespeare, and ended his last email to me with the phrase "waiting with baited breath." I suggested Romeo, but Scarlet- rightfully- argued that Romeo was too tragic, so I went with the more comic Lysander.) who asked for my number. I figured why the hell not, so I gave it to him. Lo and behold, he used it a mere two hours later- to send me a text message.

I am an anti-texter. I know I should just get off my high horse and jump on the bandwagon, but I don't want to. I have oddly-shaped thumbs that make it awkward to push tiny buttons and it's just so impersonal. I gave you my number, use it properly. I'm not asking for a hand-written letter, for crying out loud.

Granted, he used it to ask me when was a good time to reach me, but what's wrong with just calling? If I don't answer, leave a message. So now I don't know what to do. I don't want to text him back, because that would a.) condone his actions and b.) set a bad precident which will send my cell phone bill through the roof, as I do not have texting in my current plan. I can't return his text with a call, that's just wrong. Do I email him? Ignore the text and wait for him to just call? I need some advice on this one, ladies...
