8 Ways To Text A Girl You Like And Make Her Think Fondly Of You

Thank goodness for technology! Now you can simply text and talk to the girl you’re crushing over without having to sweat and bumble over your words. Of course, you still need to know how to text a girl you like in the right way, otherwise your efforts are completely in vain.

You might think that firing off a quick text is easy, and compared to actually approaching her, it is. Yet, you can still get it very, very wrong indeed if you’re not careful.

Wrong timing, wrong words, misunderstandings, allowing texting anxiety to take hold.The potential for disaster is still pretty high even if you manage to spare your in-person blushes. It’s also far easier for someone to ignore you over text than it is when you approach them in person.

# Early evening is the best time to text a girl

Most girls are busy during the day, so if you text her around this time, she might become busy, forget you’ve texted, and not reply. If you text late at night, you run the risk of her getting the wrong idea and assuming you’re after a booty call.

Start by texting her early in the evening and look for ways to keep the conversation going. Most people are more relaxed at this time and usually not quite so busy.

# Be unique with your first text

If you want to know how to text a girl for the first time, don’t think too much of it. Just keep it casual and simple. “Hey! Just thought I’d say hi!” is simple and just one of several ways to initiate a first text with a girl you like, but it’s pretty boring too.

It’s better to think of something quirky and unique to say because that way you’ll stick in her mind and she’ll be more inclined to reply. However, there is a difference between quirky and weird, remember that!

In truth, as long as you don’t accidentally insult her, there’s never a wrong way to text a girl. It’s what you do after the first text that always matters.

# Once the ice is broken, keep your follow up text short

Nobody’s got time for paragraphs! If you’ve been texting each other back and forth for a few days, you really don’t need to look for reasons to text her again, nor do you need long elaborate introductions.

Start with a warm and simple line that feels good to read. It leaves the conversation open and you’ll be able to know if she’s free to chat too.

"Hey, what are you doing?" or even just a smiley face should work perfectly to start a conversation once the initial icebreaker has already been used.

# Use the good morning/goodnight text strategy

There’s just something about a good morning/good night text that makes a person feel warm inside. Those texts are simple yet effective.

You’re letting her know she’s on your mind when you wake up and when you go to bed. Now, you don’t need to send both of them, or else it can be a little much. But that also depends on your connection and conversations throughout the day.

# Ask questions to show your interest in her

Ask her about her day. Be interested in her life and let her know that you’re always interested in knowing more about her while texting each other. It’ll help her open up.

It also shows that you’re not selfish or self-absorbed. Constantly talking about yourself might be something you do out of nerves but it can really backfire.

At the same time, don’t fire questions at her as though she’s in an interview ether. Learning how to text a girl you like should come down to a blend of back and forth questions and mutual conversation.

# Look at how you two met

How did you two meet before you had her number? Were you friends? Did you ask for her number? This will help you decide what to text a girl you like, and how you’re going to approach her.

If you two were already friends, well, now you need to express you like her more than a friend and see what happens. But if you met her at a club, bar, or from a mutual friend, you’re starting without much information about her.

# Choose a pet name for her

Pet names are very personal and unique. If you want the relationship to take the next step, you need to create a personal bond between both of you.

And the best way to do just that is by giving her a pet name. Personalize the relationship both of you share and it’ll bring both of you closer.

But, don’t do this straight away because it may seem like you’re moving too fast wait until you’ve been texting back and forth for a while.

# Don’t just say "hey" or "what's up?"

You don’t need to text that. Nothing really good comes out of texting a girl, “what’s up?” It’s stale. Instead, tell her what you’re doing and then ask her what’s up. It just gives off a better vibe, and that you’re into the conversation.
