Disable text message for one contact

Is it possible to disable text messages for one contact and have only iMessage if using a phone number? Say if I were to message someone from out the country and only wanted to use iMessage is there a way around that with using a phone number? Or is using an email the best way?

One thing to consider:

Use Malwarebytes Mobile Security:

The free version has text message filtering free of charge. So, consider using that. View the bottom of the screenshot:
