What to say when she says she doesn't believe in texting too much

She's not saying 'never text me.' She's saying she doesn't want to be someone's text pen pal. Usually this comes from experience with guys who use texting as a substitute for actually making plans or getting to know her in person. It can also mean she gets drained by constant back-and-forth or finds it distracting.

The subtext is she wants to move toward meeting up faster, or she wants less volume but higher quality interactions. She's filtering out guys who are lazy about building momentum toward a real date. Pay attention to whether she's still responding to your texts. If she replies, even if it takes a few hours, she's interested. The complaint is about quantity and style, not about you specifically.

Your reply should do two things. Signal that you heard her and aren't going to spam her inbox. Then show that you're the type of guy who texts with purpose. Don't make a big deal out of the boundary. A one or two sentence response is ideal here.

After you acknowledge it, the next text or two should have actual content to it, like a specific plan or a real question that moves things forward. Show her you're someone who reaches out with a reason, not someone who needs constant validation through texting. This proves you're aligned with what she said without her having to manage you.

Reply within an hour or two. Waiting too long makes it look like her comment bothered you. A quick, low-pressure response shows you're secure about it.

Then actually follow through. Space out your texts. When you do text, make it count. If she says she prefers meeting up, your next move is to suggest something specific within the next day or two. Don't send multiple texts without her replying first. If she takes hours or a day to respond, match that pace. If she ghosts you after this comment, she's filtering herself out, and that's fine. But most of the time, girls who say this are actually more likely to meet up if you respect the boundary.
