    Buy a prepaid phone (a GO phone from at&t is $15) and tell them if they text you again you'll block their number (you'll need to call your service provider to do this, but they generally will). Give them the prepaid number so they can still get ahold of you. Or change your number, because generally friends will listen. Another trick is tell people you don't get texting anymore, and when people text you ignore them, and just call them an hour or so later acting like they never contacted you. But remember you can't call them immediately because they'll know your lieing. Or YOU stop texting for this month. Stop having conversations, and just call the person.
