Texting is the New Normal

This fleeting, half-committed form of communication has surpassed the phone call

within the dating scenario.

While this is frustrating, you can use it to your advantage.

Texting: An Art Form

Important Considerations• Content• Timing• Tone• Frequency• Delivery

Yeah…don’t feel bad for being clueless.But remember, it’s YOUR job to decipher the texting

code and translate that into dates.

Texts that Drive Girls Insane

I get texts constantly that are:

• Hilarious, in a bad way• Ridiculously dumb• Annoying

If not for the amusement factor, I’d be highly irritated. Even my top contenders send pathetic texts on occasion, poor guys.

View the collection of my most cringeworthy exchanges from:

• Texts• WhatsApp• Facebook Messenger

I screenshot and share these with my friends. Embarrassing, right? I’m thinking about posting them to Instagram…

A Delightful Treat!

If your legwork is on par, a few texting mistakes are okay. BUT if what you’re about to see is your normal, you’re in trouble.

The Too-Frequent Guy

The phone will not shut-up. If it buzzes more than twice, somebody better be dead. When it’s the same guy over and over again, it pisses me off.

Here’s the Deal

I don’t need a guy on constant buzz patrol.

I don’t want a novel.

Less is more.

Red Flag Responses

You’re in dangerous “two-frequent” territory if you get the following curt answers.

Ditto for no response at all.

With these answers, you’re at first place in the text race.

“k” “ya” “cool”

First is a bad spot to be in.

Too Much Availability Guy

Women are attracted to an element of mystery and allure in a man. There’s none of that when you’re

constantly available.

Fight those urges to rapid text.

Discipline is the key to success.

Remember, it’s all about the payoff.

Ultra Quick Meet-Up Guy

Make Me Like You More First

I don’t really remember many great qualities about the guys I’m texting with.

It’s YOUR job to seduce me with new game. That way, I can’t forget you.

The Salty Guy

If you want to sleep with a girl, no matter how pissed off you are with her, don’t lose your cool.

Some guys act like I really care that they’re pissed.

The Late Guy

I absolutely LOATHE getting the

running late text.

You’re not exempt from being late just because you text me seven minutes before

you’re supposed to show up.

Punctuality is important.

My time is valuable.

The Guy Who Doesn’t Understand Emoticons

... or the guy who doesn't have an iPhone to accept Emoji's!

Remember: A girl can use as many emoticons as she wants. You can’t.

An Emoticon Loser

Avoid gushing over a girl in general, and especially in a text.

Overly Cute and Sweet

Set the Tone with Emoji

• Texts may be taken the wrong way without a smiley face or a wink.

• Be advised: My mood is going to have a bearing on how I interpret your message.

• My inner psycho may be released if your text isn’t clear.

Make it clear when you’re joking, teasing or flirting.

Drug Addict Warning Guy

• Only drug addicts bring up Molly at three in the afternoon.

• This message leaves a feeling of being used as arm candy and a prop for handing out blow.

• Needless to say, I did not meet up with this guy.

Not Attractive

Careful, Careful

• Do not try to convince me to be naughty or bad via text like Drug Addict Guy.

• Do not make me feel guilty. I’ll be hesitant to go along, and you’ll only succeed in creeping me out.

Huge Turn-Off

The Dimwitted Guy

• If you don’t understand memes, you’re hereby classified an idiot.

• Don’t ask stupid questions. Unless it can’t be answered via Google, please don’t ask.

There’s little tolerance for ignorant guys.

The Guy Who Doesn’t Get Jokes

This fellow isn’t dumb per se, but he’s clueless.

Boring exchanges cause loss of interest.

The Non-iPhone GuyGirls are iPhone snobs. You should be aware of the following:

• It’s annoying to get a text that isn’t Apple’s light blue.

• You will be judged if don’t have an iPhone.

• Girls wonder what kind of crap phone you have if you don’t have that blue screen.

• Green messages are outdated and old-fashioned.

• If you don’t use an iPhone, I can’t see you typing, which is irritating.

It’s all about convenience. Make it easy for her.

The Late-Night-Only Guy

Typically, this guy:

• Is attractive• Doesn’t respond in a timely fashion• Gives irrelevant responses• Only talks at night • Messages are full of sexual innuendo

It’s all in the timing.

The Predictably Boring Guy

Remember this: Girls like to have fun.

Remember, if you’re texting a hot girl, you aren’t the only one.

Don’t be like every other guy. Stand out.

Repetition Sucks

Skip the small talk!

The FlakeAfter a dynamic beginning, being flaked is a bummer.

Keep in mind…• Really liking a guy might

make a girl cut him lose quickly so she doesn’t have to get flaked twice.

• You only get one flake early on. Make sure it’s worth the consequences.

Flake twice, and expect no response to texts.

Pumpkin Cruelty by Nomadic Lass @ Flickr.com

I Was Excited, and Then…

I was looking forward to this date, and then…he flaked.

He won’t be seeing anymore of me.

Yes, even I get flaked on, too. ;-)
