What to Talk About When Texting a Girl

The invention of smartphones have revolutionized texting and dating.
Since texts are more casual and more flexible than making a phonecall,
it is the popular method of communication in dating. Because of
this, it really helps to know what to talk about when texting a girl
and how to flirt with a girl over text.

Here are some rules for texting girls.

1. Suggesting is Better Than Saying

There is an art to texting. When you decide to let a girl know that
you like her, you might tell her directly:
“I wanted to let you know that I like you”
but this is not as effective as showing her that you like her.
The fact that you’re asking her out implies that you like her.
Similarly, giving her little annecdotes of your life implies that
you were reminded of her somehow.

2. Add Humor

Being humorous over text will catch her attention and she’ll
remember you brightened her day. There are many ways you can do
this – memes are very popular these days. You can picture message
a girl funny pictures you find online. You can even get creative
and create your own meme. When you get a girl laughing, it’s much
much easier to persuade her to do things, like getting her to meet
up with you.

3. Emoticons Are Important

Add flavor to your texts with emoticons. One needs emoticons to
be able to tell if you’re serious, trying to be funny, flirting,
implying sexual innuendo.. etc.

Girls know way more about flirting than us guys. This a good thing
in the sense that she will “get it” when we flirt with her.

Here is an example of smileys affecting the meaning of your texts:

Guy: what is your favorite movie?
Girl: Hmm I’m not sure
Guy: Think about it long and hard

Innocent and normal enough.

How about:

Guy: what is your favorite movie?
Girl: Hmm I’m not sure
Guy: Think about it long and hard 😉

The winky makes a big difference. She “gets it” that he’s being
playfully sexual. Without the wink, it’s a normal conversation.
That winky is a little packet of information that suggests your
interest without directly saying “let’s have sex”, which is boring
and too strong.

Since texting is now the popular form of dating communication, it
is important to know what to talk about when texting a girl. To
summarize, suggest your interest for a girl rather than saying it,
use humor by being playful and fun, and use emoticons to add flavor
to your texts.
