7 Mistakes Guys Should Avoid Making When Texting A Lady by barrackbwoi(m): 7:43am On Feb 17, 2017
ladies are fans of texting. So much so, that one of her
most enjoyable activities is the guessing game — What
Do You Think He Meant With That Text? To make sure
you win at that game, keep these pointers handy:

1. No CAPS
The only time capital letters are allowed are at the
beginning of a sentence or if you’re saying OMG (but
refrain from doing that often). The all caps makes you
come across as pushy, loud and demanding attention.

2. Small talk
Guys, K is not a reply. If you ever reply to her one
paragraph texts with a single alphabet, you better be
fine with never hearing from her again. A curt reply like
that makes you seem uncaring, uninterested and rude.
However, if you do in fact, want to break up with a girl,
K all the way.

3. No shorthand
Girls take trouble composing their texts. They will type
and retype over and over again just so they can make
sure it’s perfect. While they don’t expect you to take the
same trouble, do make sure ur nt typng a msg lyk dis
because they will dump you like a hot potato. No one
over the age of 14 talks like that — it’s childish and
most women are turned off by it.

4. When in doubt
If you’re not a star when it comes to wording love
messages, you can cheat by quoting a romantic song or
movie. You are guaranteed it will have nearly the same
effect. But follow up by saying ‘This always reminds
me of you.’

5. Address her
When texting a girl, especially if you’re just getting to
know her, always use her name in the first text
message you exchange. This is to clarify in her mind
that you are not mass messaging and talking only to
her. Like we said, ladies love to analyse your texts.

6. Play a little hard to get
Don’t be too enthusiastic with your texts — for every
two you send, make sure she replies at least once.
Coming across as too eager — especially via text, which
makes you look extra keen — might scare her off.

7. Word play
Whether it’s sarcasm or a slightly naughty text, go slow
and don’t overdo it. Remember with text, a lot is lost in
translation. What may seem cute while chatting will
come across as cocky or rude via text.
