Texting lingo

[nycindie]

Okay, so I am really bad about texting abbreviations. Probably because they annoy me so much, I kind of hate learning them and usually spell words out when I text, except for a few very common ones. HOWEVER, a friend just sent me a message and I had to look up one text term which doesn't make sense to me. How he used it does not seem to match the interpretations I'm finding on the 'net.

What is GGG?

His sentence: "It's hard to believe you can't find somebody as GGG as yourself!"

What could that possibly mean? I know it's meant to be a compliment, but all I've found is "Gotta Get a Grip," which doesn't make sense. Our conversation was about sex and relationships. Can anyone clue me in? I don't want to ask him yet.

gGG used to be a type of german porn. But Now it is in reference to a Dan savage quote about being "good, giving and game"

Ah, the Dan Savage phrase makes sense. This guy is a booty-call-turned-friend. Hey, actually I guess what he was saying about me really is a cool compliment! Heh-heh.

Thank you!!! Now I know how to respond without looking like a dork who doesn't know. Gosh, I haven't read Dan Savage in years and years. He actually published a letter of mine once. That was way back in the 90s.
