What To Talk About When Texting a Guy – Important Rules

  1. Keep the tone of the conversation light and humorous, and have fun with it.

No one wants to have deep conversations over text messages, especially in the beginning stages of a new relationship. If it is taken too seriously, it can put an end to both the conversation and the mood. Because there is no tone in a text message and we cannot see the other person’s face to determine how they are feeling in order to respond, it is easy to misinterpret what is being said.

It is important to keep this in mind whenever you are texting a guy in general as well. You want him to be interested in what you are saying and to want to continue talking to you, so make sure the conversation is engaging. There is a good chance that he does not care about the drama at work or the problems in your family at this point.

The important thing is to keep a positive attitude and keep the conversation flowing smoothly. You can talk about embarrassing stories, play games, or share memes with each other. You’ll be able to begin discussing more weighty topics when your relationship has advanced to the point where you’ve met each other.

Regarding this, however, your use of emojis should be kept in check. Everyone enjoys using emojis, but if that’s your primary mode of communication, you might want to tone it down a bit. Emojis can get a little out of hand. When telling a joke or displaying sarcasm, use these expressions in the appropriate context.

People are immediately turned off by a message that is predominately made up of emojis. It may give the impression that you are either childish or that you are unable to actually communicate in a meaningful way. Don’t just do this for the guy you’re crushing on. Except for texts with close friends and family, you should always use this rule.

2. You don’t have to talk all the time.

When you first start texting a guy, there is no requirement for you to maintain constant communication with each other. It is not at all inappropriate to go an entire day or even two days without communicating with each other.

Even if you talk all the time, that doesn’t mean you’ll grow closer to each other. In point of fact, it may have the opposite effect and lead him to believe that you are too possessive or needy. You should feel safe enough to be okay with the situation even if he does not respond right away. In the same vein, he ought to show the same level of respect to you.

This guideline, of course, is subject to change depending on the stage of the relationship you currently find yourself in. If you and the person you’re dating have been seeing each other for a while, it might be abnormal for you to go for long stretches without communicating with each other. It’s possible that this will make you worry that something bad happened to him, or that they’ve developed a sudden change of heart.

If, on the other hand, you’ve only just begun communicating with each other, you shouldn’t be too concerned about it. Conversations tend to go in waves. There will be days when there isn’t much for either of you to talk about.

Equally important is knowing when to cut someone off and end a conversation. It’s okay to stop talking to the guy for a few hours or even the whole day so that you can focus on other aspects of your life, even though you might want to keep talking to him as much as possible. You should stop talking if you feel like you’re not adding anything new to the conversation. Simply saying, “Hey!” My work and errands are piling up on me. Text me later or tomorrow!” will work and won’t come off as rude. Not all silences mean that something is wrong.

  • There are plenty of resources available, such as Text Chemistry, that you can refer to if you find yourself at a loss for what to text him. There are many strategies there you can use to pique his interest in you and set the tone for the rest of his day.

3. Send him texts based on the effort he put forth.

It’s easy to get carried away when you’re chatting with a person you have feelings for. When compared to the other person, you will usually put in more effort. You could send them a text asking how their day went as well as one wishing them good morning and good night. But excessive one-way texting isn’t a good sign and can be off-putting if you aren’t physically together yet.

We are not suggesting that you should refrain from texting him; however, you should ensure that he also makes an effort in this regard. Therefore, you shouldn’t text him if he isn’t texting you frequently throughout the day. You shouldn’t text him if he doesn’t text you back.

Do not text him detailed descriptions of how you are feeling or specifics about your day if he only responds to your texts with a single word or barely engages in conversation with you. What’s the point in asking him questions if he’s just going to ignore you or pretend he’s not interested in the answers? Just take what he dishes out.

Having said that, make sure you don’t get caught in the trap of acting cool simply for the sake of acting cool. If he does not respond to your texts in a timely manner, there is no need for you to pretend to be busy or unavailable and wait for hours before texting him back. You are free to respond right away even if he takes several hours to respond, provided that the topic is interesting enough to warrant a conversation. You shouldn’t text back within a few seconds, but it’s fine to do so after a few minutes.

He may misinterpret your delayed response as a sign that you’re not interested in continuing your conversation or are too busy for a serious commitment. In contrast, you should not respond to his texts within minutes if he consistently takes hours to respond to yours. It’s understandable that he has a lot going on, but if he keeps putting off talking to you (unless he is at work), he’s not putting in a good effort.

4. Affirm his worth by praising him.

Man is in a good mood because he just received a compliment that made him feel better about himself. When you appeal to a man’s pride and ego, winning his affection is a breeze.

You can count on this to be effective for any man you know.

Complimenting him is a simple and effective way to stroke his ego in a non-intrusive way.

Are you sure?

Indeed, it really is that easy. It’s one of the most powerful tools you can use to win a guy’s heart and make him want to be with you (over text).

Because men rarely receive compliments, when you do, they’ll feel good about themselves immediately.

Can you guess the person he’ll associate that joy with? You are correct.

Compliments are an easy and uncomplicated way to get a man’s attention, whether you’re doing it in person or over text.

Therefore, it wouldn’t hurt to congratulate him every once in a while. Say, if he uploads a fresh photo to social media like Telegram, Facebook, or Instagram.

It only takes a little bit of effort, but it can have a significant impact.
