Tighten Up Your Text Game
Just as there are social conventions at a party, there are guidelines to texting.
Rule 1: Don’t text to avoid phone conversation.
Many guys see texting as a safer arena for contacting woman than calling them. This is understandable, but unacceptable. If you’ve just met and number closed a woman, then your next goal is to get a date. The likelihood that you will set this up with her via text message is lower than if you call her and build more familiarity verbally.
If you text because you’re scared to talk to her, how will you ever speak to her in person?
Rule 2: Never expect replies of validation
Value seeking texts can be things like, “What are you doing?” or “Can i hang with you and your friends?” This kind of texting comes off very needy, turn women off, and do not showcase your personality at all.
Take a look at some sample texts that are have been repetitively tested and proven effective…
“Your twin just walked past me wearing a purple sparkle fanny pack”
“Hey dork!
I bet you are operating at a level of 100% dorkiness today.”
Rule 3: Abstain from over texting
You’ve got a huge kindergarten crush on her, but don’t show too much interest too fast or you will scare her off. Text one time and if she responds, do the same. However, if there is no response, wait for the next day before contacting her.
Also, give it some time after you receive a text before you respond. Remember being non-needy always equals sexy because it conveys that you must have other dating options in your life.
If in doubt, follow her lead. If she texts instantly, do the same, but if she text after 15 minutes, then do the same.
Secret Texting Tip: Use texting to familiarize your number in her phone
After getting her number, immediately send a text while you’re still standing right next to her. This situation by itself is humorous and if you send a funny message it’s doubly so. Try messages like…
“You have my number but please limit yourself to one per day ;)”
“Who is that really hot guy standing next to you?”
Once she saves your number, you can be confident she is interested. But even more important, when you call later, she will have your number and caller id appear. There is even more chance for her to pick up the phone to a recognized number.
