I am terrible at texting girls. I know that texting should be avoided at all costs, but sometimes it's unavoidable. Can y'all please give me some advice on texting

Well, just try your hardest to not be awkward. Dont give one worded answers like lol, or haha, or okay. That just kills a conversation. And when things get awkward on her part. Just dont text back. Lol. Just think of it as any regular conversation except you have more time to reply.

haha I have a similar problem, I can hold a conversastion up to a point but eventually she'll say something, and I won't know how to respond. So I just stop texting, even if I don't want to.

as that one dude said,

better to keep your mouth shut and let people assume your stupid (or, let people assume you're not desperate and are actually busy), then open your mouth and remove all doubt.

why are there so many "avoid texting at all costs" people floating around?

it's just another avenue of game that you should learn.

personally i love texting. it gives you an opportunity to actually think about what you wanna say for a little longer than in real life.

-use sarcasm sparingly; when you do use it, make sure to use the smileys to convey that you are being sarcastic ( :p, ;), etc.)

-be funny! when she says anything, make it into playful conversation. the nature of texting is so informal that it's really easy to change EVERY convo into a playful one that allows you to really show off your fun side.

-be sexual. tons of things can be changed into sexual topics over texts, and girls EAT IT UP. if you've ever sent a sexually joking/suggestive text, think about how quick the reply typically came. girls EAT IT UP. use that to your advantage. again, use a lot of the goofy little smileys.

-be a bit ****y-er than usual on occasion.
her: hahaha you're so funny!
you: lol thanks. feel free to take notes and get a little funnier yourself :p

-personally, i say "haha" and "lol" a lot because pretty much all of my texts are joking and playful... so i would advise using those very often.

-initiate a conversation or two, then let the girl initiate the convo. easy indication of how much interest is actually present

-just generally have a good time! you sound from your post like you fear texting, you try to avoid it whenever you can. BAD! girls will pick up on this! they want to associate you with good times, fun, and confidence-not "oh geez, what am i gonna text next? i hope she likes it!" it's just like anything with girls. if you focus on making it fun for yourself, typically girls will jump all over it.

-if the girl is being a boring texter (sending short messages, messages having nothing of any substance in them) my approach is to call her out on it once. "god you're such a boring texter! you're gonna have to step your game up when you text me baby ;)" typically, she will begin to try to qualify herself to you and say "no! blah blah blah more interesting message." if she continues being boring, simply stop responding.

it's hard to tell who you're texting here. random girls? you should have more than one at any given time, so they should be fairly dispensable as far as blowing em off when they get boring is concerned.

good luck man, and since i do consider my texting abilities to be way above average, feel free to pm me if i didnt cover something specific you're not sure about.

So if a chick texted you "what a small penis" would you chat with her for an hour?

what a trashy girl to be texting things like that.

:rolleyes:

ha
my response :)
"you're so right! why do you even talk to him?!"


also, i find that random observations and funny beginnings of stories that happen to you are better things to include in a first text of a conversation.

not "what a hoe." haha but whatever works for ya man
