Want to text flirt with a guy without appearing too easy to get? Understanding how to flirt with a guy over text is an art, that perfectly balances keeping him interested and happy, and arousing his interest in you, all at once.
And by the time you’re done with this feature, you’ll be surprised to realize just how powerful and yet effortless it can be to text flirt and keep a guy smitten!
Flirting with a guy while texting him can be a lot of fun when you know the right way to do it. There are a few right things to do, and there are a few things that are best avoided.
# Text him first, but always less often than him
Everyone says it’s okay to text a guy first, and there’s absolutely nothing wrong in that. BUT, here’s something you need to remember – You like the guy already! So chances are, your fingers are itching to text the guy every minute. You’re never going to be in the calculative state of mind to realize just how often you’ve been texting him first.
So what’s the next best thing? Wait for his texts. You can still text him first, but it shouldn’t happen more than a couple of times a week, not at least until you know he likes you back too. You want to look available and interested, not clingy and smitten!
# Use memes to keep the connection alive
So, if you’re texting a guy, in all probability, you’re also following each other on Instagram and other social media. Send him a meme now and then to keep the connection alive. If you think something’s funny, share the meme in a DM. This is a great way to sate your itch when he hasn’t texted you for a day, and you’re itching to text him. Memes are casual, and it’s a great way to get a guy to text you back.
# Use stories
You could also use your Instagram stories to keep a conversation going. A guy may not want to comment on every one of your posts because he’d just look creepy unless he’s dating you. But if it’s a story, it’s a whole different game. No one else can see the interaction but you two, so it’s a safe place for him to keep the conversation going and comment without anyone else watching.
# Let him get to know who you are
Be unique, but be who you are. You don’t have to change your texting style to please a guy. If there’s something you do often while texting, continue doing that. If your definition of “over and out” when you’re done with a text conversation is a face blowing a heart emoji, use it. Be who you are, and never change for anyone but yourself.
# Always ask open-ended questions
If you want to flirt with a guy over text and keep the conversation going, ask open ended questions. If he asks you what you’re doing, don’t just answer him and leave it at that. Ask him WYD in return.
Girls who don’t ask open-ended questions when they answer a text can come off as boring to any guy. And you don’t want to be that dry texter no one likes!
# Give him opportunities to flirt with you
Share a cute selfie of you trying an outfit while out shopping. Ask him for his opinion. If the outfit looks good, chances are, he’s going to compliment you for it. It’s all about subtlety. Give him an opportunity to flirt over text, and any guy will take it!
And the next time he sees you in person, and you’re wearing the same outfit, he’ll feel flattered and special because he “recommended” that outfit to you.
