Texting can be a quick and easy way to get in contact with others, especially someone you like. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
And if you’re wondering how to text a girl and tell her you like her or how to flirt with a girl over text in a way that will make her like you, you’re definitely not alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For some people, sending text messages rather than calling someone can be a saving grace. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You get to think through which things to talk about with a girl and what you really want to say, the message you hope to deliver and how you can best say it before you hit “send”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unlike when you’re talking to someone over voice calling or FaceTime, you get an opportunity make changes and edits to your messages before the person on the other end receives them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This means texting minimizes the likelihood of foot-in-mouth syndrome, because it allows you to read over your messages before she does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just\nlike voice calling, however, texting requires a thoughtful approach, especially\nif you want to come across as interesting and interested rather than being seen\nas some annoying guy and totally turning her off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Unlike\nwhen you talk with someone on the phone, when you send texts, a record of your\nconversation is created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This solidifies your comments and responses, making it difficult \u2014 or even impossible \u2014 to take them back or deny you ever wrote them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you’re someone who has “memory issues” or difficulty owning up to what you’ve done said when someone takes issue with you, you must be especially careful about what you type and text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For\nmany women, including myself, it can be extremely challenging to communicate\nwith guys via text.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n These\nchallenges exist for many reasons, including but not limited to, receiving\ntexts from guys who don’t really know what to say to a girl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n I can\u2019t tell you how many times this particular issue has irritated me and other women I know. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Although I’m a listener and a talker by both nature and profession, nothing bothers me (and\u00a0a lot<\/em>\u00a0of other women) more than having to venture into a the occupation of “pulling teeth”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Guys,\nwhen you text a woman, you should be able to communicate with her in a way that\nhelps develop rapport between the two of you and peaks her interest, not one\nthat creates additional work for her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Texting\na woman \u2014 or anyone you are interested in \u2014 requires putting thought into it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n What\ndo you want to know about her? What do you like about her? Who is she as a\nperson? Why do you find her so attractive and interesting?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Texting\na woman something like, \u201cGood morning, love\u201d, \u201cGood morning, beautiful\u201d, or\nespecially, \u201cGood morning, sexy\u201d when you don’t know her well and say nothing\nelse can be a huge turnoff, as these types of texts can be sent to anyone and\neveryone, and therefore may come off as both intrusive and impersonal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Just\nlike men, women want to feel special and unique, not as though they are simply\none of many.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Texting these types of comments may also convey to her that you may not be entirely certain of who you are texting, that you may be sending out batch text messages to as many women as possible and then waiting to see who responds, or as though you just aren’t serious about her. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Many women lose interest fairly quickly if they believe you’re on some kind of fishing expedition rather than striving to get to know them personally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Last,\nbut certainly not least, over-sexualized texts that don’t seek to explore the\ncontext of a woman\u2019s character but rather her physical dimensions are typically\nnothing but a huge turn-off..<\/p>\n\n\n\n These texts aren’t only creepy, but\u00a0they convey the message you’re only interested in one thing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If\nyou are really interested in a woman and think you want to build a relationship\nwith her, you want to be transparent and authentic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You\nwant her to know that you are interested in her mind, soul, and interests, not\njust the physical aspects of her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dr. Tarra\nBates-Duford<\/a> is a psychologist who focuses on relationships, dating,\nand personality issues, as well as a Certified Relationship Specialist with\nDiplomate Status, and an expert with the American\nPsychotherapy Association.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Texting can be a quick and easy way to get in contact with others, especially someone you like.
