Today we're going through 12 texting rules that every man should know. That's right, 12, we're going to smash all the rules for today's tips and tricks, because we're going to see so many guys screwing up this easy thing, so we're going to teach you today what you should and shouldn't do to make sure you never look like a fool.
1. Being Dry
There's no excuse for being a dry texter, if you don't want to text someone, that's fine, it's understandable, just don't text them back that's gonna send a clear message. Responding with a bland 'haha' or 'cool' will send one or two messages - A, you're either a boring guy with no charisma or B, you're too lazy to talk to them but you're leading them on. Just use some emojis.
2. Don't Send Mass Text
It may sound like a good idea for you to send one generic text to all the girls on your phone because it's efficient. When it comes to this stuff, women have like the 10th sense, sending someone a generic text message will rarely evoke an answer, and if this is the girl you like, you're going to want to give it a little effort.
3. Using Childish Abbreviation
Text like " How u doing?! " will just make you look lazy and stupid. Use proper grammar for the most part and if you're trying to impress a smart girl and not all just looks, make sure you have your basics covers like using the right " There and Their " or " Where and Wear " or " Your and You're ".
4. Asking A Girl Out Through Text
This is the easiest and one of the best ways to do it but you want to make sure it's at the high point of your conversation. In other words, don't just come out of the blue and you haven't spoken to her in weeks and texted " Want to hang out on Saturday? ", the issue is that that it will be misplaced or she'll see it and think it's awkward and most likely she will refuse with the response such as " Oh sorry I'm busy Saturday ".
What you want to do is, start up a convo with this girl and once she's responding pretty quick and the convo is flowing then hit her and invite her at that point - this is gonna increase your chances of getting a " Yes " because she's in a good mood. After all, she's talking to you and will probably want to observe this in person.
5. Never Text Your Feelings
Keep feelings out of this text is one of the most informal ways of communication and no one, particularly a female, wants to discuss why your life sucks through a five-paragraph essay.
6. Being Desperate
When texting a girl, you never want to stack her up with your text, you're going to look desperate and some girls may even think you're going to be pathetic. When it comes to messaging, you're going to see a good rule of thumb, that is, you want to maintain the same pace that she's giving you back, reply one text at a time, and don't be too anxious about it.
7. Never Force Anyone To Respond
Don't be overly anxious if she doesn't respond well that's the tone she said she doesn't want to talk and this can mean many things, she's maybe busy or maybe she's tired or maybe she just wants to talk to you, so just ignore it and move on and bombarding over text when she doesn't respond isn't gonna get her a response and it's just gonna make you look bad.
If she doesn't respond well, don't be too anxious, that's the tone she said she didn't want to chat, and this can mean several things, she's maybe busy or she's tired or maybe she doesn't just want to talk to you, so just ignore it and move on. And bombarding over text when she doesn't respond, it's just going to make you look bad.
8. Texting Is Not Dating
If all you've done a few times is texted to a chick, and you need to realize that you're not dating, which means she doesn't own anything for you. This is the attitude you want, so you won't get frustrated when she doesn't answer it, and you can just move on when she's dry, so don't place your standards so high on her that's just doomed to fail.
9. Texting Isn't Perfect
You're going to hear a lot of dating gurus and guys out there are going to tell you things like if you sent the last message and she didn't reply, you have to let her start a new conversation.
Be a little persistent, which doesn't mean desperate, but if you were the last to post the last conversation, it's okay for you to start a new conversation. Now, if the last 20-plus messages were just you with no response, you might be a borderline psycho.
10. Use Some GIFs
Some images, particularly those that make you think of the girl or person you're talking to, if you don't want to go back to being dry, make your messages a little bit more amusing, throw some gifs and some memes so you don't look dry and a little more entertaining.
11. Keep The Other Person's Schedule In Mind
For example, if you wake up every day at 5:00 in the morning, it doesn't mean most people do it, sending a message that early in the morning could be seen as rude.
12. Avoid Sarcasm
This may be tough for you guys who are extra charismatic, but if you're messaging someone you've just met or maybe you don't know, they may not understand your tone and assume that whatever you're doing is either plain rude or hurting their feelings.
