Dating CoachIt's really hard for somebody to understand your texting until they meet you in person, because everybody has a specific way of texting, and a unique sense of humor. If the person doesn't know you, you might say something and it might be a joke, but it could come off the wrong way. It also really takes away from the spontaneity of the conversation, because you're carefully crafting each message.
Tips
- Don’t be afraid to switch things up! Keep your texts unique and interesting, so your conversations don’t get boring. You might ask her a few get-to-know-you questions during one chat, and tell a story during another.[9]Thanks
- Body language is one of the best ways to tell if someone is bored. If you’re able to safely meet up in person, take a closer look at her posture—if she’s turning away and doesn’t seem very focused on you, it’s safe to assume that she’s disinterested.[10]Thanks
- Don’t feel bad if a girl is bored of texting you. The sooner you know, the sooner you can focus on people who are excited and happy to chat with you.Thanks
Warnings
- Don’t text the same thing every day. Messages like “hi,” “hey,” or “what’s up” can become pretty repetitive and boring.[11]Thanks
- Give her time to get back to you. If she doesn’t reply within a few minutes, that doesn’t necessarily mean she’s bored—she might be busy, or not quite ready to reply.[12]Thanks
- Let go of the idea that you have to be in constant communication. Ongoing conversations are nice and important, but some time away from each other won't be a detriment to any relationship that is built to last!Thanks
