So you finally got her number, now what? How can you tell a girl interested? Here's our list of signs she likes you based on her texts! Ever since the mobile phone came into being, texting has been a staple dating precursor. Nowadays, it is impossible for relationships to not have gone through the “texting phase” prior to actual dating.
It can be convenient because, first, you can have casual conversations without being awkward. And second, it eliminates the need to be self-aware in presenting yourself physically. But despite this, the lack of actual face-to-face interaction leaves you with a difficult conundrum: “Does she like me, or not?”
# She uses a lot of emojisIf she uses a lot of emojis while texting you, it could be flirty. It depends on the emojis, and the girl, but she is taking the time to choose them before she sends the text, which is a great sign. If she's not using emojis, not to worry! She very well may still like you and just doesn't use emojis. Or maybe she doesn't want you to think she's a dork.
# She texts back right awayIf she promptly responds to your texts, this is definitely a sign that you're a priority. She may even be impatiently waiting by the phone for your text. If she takes a while to respond, it could be an indication she may be losing interest. Or maybe she's scared you will think she's a dork if she sends a text back too fast. More likely, she is just a busy person. Which could be a good sign, because you want a girlfriend, not a stalker.
# She laughs at your jokesIf you're the type that uses a little comedy in your conversation (which I recommend), hopefully she's responding to your jokes positively with Hahaha, lmao or at least an lol. Girls like when a guy can make them laugh. If you're the more serious type, throw in a joke here and there to keep her on her toes. If she isn't responding, rethink your approach!
# She has your contact name saved as something besides your actual nameIf she has you saved as some cute nickname or your name with an emoji, she probably likes you. Having a nickname at all is definitely an indication of flirtatious behavior. Even if she just calls you by your last name. But if you don’t have a nickname yet, there is still time to establish one! Even if its kind of cheesy, girls like feeling special and nicknames are perfect for making a girl feel like the one.
# She texts you a lot at nightDoes she text you when she can’t sleep at night? A girl sending messages in the wee hours of the night is a sign she likes you. She obviously likes talking to you, or she wouldn’t have chosen you to be the person who keeps her entertained when she can’t sleep. Or maybe she is actually just staying up to talk to you specifically, which is an even bigger sign.
# Her friends know about youDo her friends say things like Is this the guy you've been texting?! when you meet them? A girl always talks her friend's ears off about guys they like. Maybe you're included in a group text with her and her friends, that's a great sign that she wants her friends to get to know you. Hopefully you really like her friends, its very possible they will become a big part of your life if you pursue a relationship with this girl. If you really can not stand them, then you may want to rethink the girl you're talking to. There's always a reason someone keeps poor company.
# She uses sarcasmDoes she tend to use a lot of sarcasm in her texts? Is she the type of girl with a dry sense of humor? Those types of girls can be such interesting partners, but sometimes it takes a lot of getting-to-know them to really understand them. The first sign a girl like this likes you is if she teases you and tends to poke fun in a sarcastic manner. Don't be scared to dish it back!
# She references things you said days agoIf a girl brings up things you told her days ago, this is a sign she's really listening to you. Which means she probably likes you enough to care in the first place. It's a nice touch to also try and pay attention to things she says in passing, you can remember the things she likes for the future.
# She confides in youHas this girl shared some really personal anecdotes? Told you some secrets she doesn't share lightly? If so, this is a great sign she's into you. She trusts you enough with her secrets! Don't take advantage of that privilege! Try and be thoughtful about your responses and make sure you're being sensitive to her experience and not gas-lighting her. And never share the things the tells you with anyone unless she gives you explicit consent.
# She sends you funny memesDoes this girl always send you funny pictures she finds? That's a great sign! It means she likes to share things with you, and feels like you have a good sense of humor. She's hoping you'll appreciate them! Make sue to always acknowledge that you enjoyed the joke and don't try to one-up her with a funnier meme or something else. A girl with a good sense of humor is always the best kind of girlfriend. Someone who won't take stuff personally and wants to have a good time.
