Just as there are social conventions at a party, there are guidelines to texting.
Rule 1: Never text to dodge a real conversation
Many guys see texting as a safer arena for contacting woman than calling them. This is understandable, but unacceptable. If you've just met and number closed a woman, then your next goal is to get a date. The likelihood that you will set this up with her via text message is lower than if you call her and build more familiarity verbally.
Also, if you're texting because of your fear of interacting with this woman, then how will you ever hope to interact with her comfortably face to face?
Rule 2: Add to her day, don't be needy
Value seeking texts can be things like, "What are you doing?" or "Can i hang with you and your friends?" This kind of texting comes off very needy, turn women off, and do not showcase your personality at all.
Here are some sample texts sent that have been proven to be much more effective...
"I just saw a woman jogging with a purple fanny pack and she reminded me of you"
"Hi dork, I bet you're operating at 100% dorkiness today ;) "
Rule 3: Avoid sending too many messages!
You've got a huge kindergarten crush on her, but don't show too much interest too fast or you will scare her off. Text one time and if she responds, do the same. However, if there is no response, wait for the next day before contacting her.
In addition, let some time pass before texting her back. Be non needy because in her eyes it equals sexiness and informs her you are a busy man in demand with several dating choices.
When in doubt, pace her. If she texts you back right away, you can text her back right away, but if she takes 10 minutes, then so should you.
Secret Texting Tip: Use texting to familiarize your number in her phone
After getting her number, immediately send a text while you're still standing right next to her. This situation by itself is humorous and if you send a funny message it's doubly so. Try messages like...
"You got my number now, but please don't call me 10 times a day :)"
"Wow! That guy you're standing next to you is hot!"
Once she saves your number, you can be confident she is interested. But even more important, when you call later, she will have your number and caller id appear. There is even more chance for her to pick up the phone to a recognized number. - 16463
