How to flirt over text
Unfortunately, texting and dating now go hand in hand. Many a relationship has started after a few cheeky text messages have been exchanged. However, when it comes to online dating, texting is even more prevalent. After all, it’s the next stage after getting in touch via the sites message system.
But just how do you flirt via text? Here are a few tips…
Use faces…remember that tone doesn’t travel very well via text message so make use of those little smilie faces to convey your mood. The wink one is particularly useful as it shows you’re being cheeky, not sleazy.
ALWAYS wait for a response before texting again…give the other person a chance to respond before you send another message. You don’t want to seem a bit too keen.
How would you flirt face to face? If the person was in front of you, how would you act because you need to act the same way via text. Be cute!
Send a flirty text…when you think that the other person will be least expecting it. Morning or night, it’ll make the recipient feel as though they are in your thoughts as you wake up or go to sleep.
End the conversation every now and again…you want to keep a bit of mystery so every now and again stop the conversation saying you’ve got to go somewhere or do something.
Speak on the phone…YES we know this is about texting but every now and again pick up the phone.
Be wary of what you send…you don’t want to send anything that will come back to haunt you in future. Steer clear of sending any images or anything too graphic.
Finally…don’t drink and text. You may think you sound cute and fun after a bottle of wine but 90% of the time you’re going to be the complete opposite. Keep the drunk texting to a minimum.
