Not necessarily - I know plenty of people who talk to their texts. When they receive one, they'll for example go "omg, why did she do that??" as they start typing the reply...happens enough times especially with Americans 30 and under. It's similar how many Americans will talk to the on-screen characters in a movie theater.
