How to flirt over text- Tips
In the beginning stages of your relationship, you should remember to flirt more subtly. Texting is a great way to keep in touch and also to build interest when you are getting to know someone better.
As your relationship progresses you will probably be more confident with your flirting.
The key to flirting over text, is to send fun & teasing texts to make them smile and laugh. You should save the more direct flirting for when you are already in a relationship.
Of course the same goes for sending very sexy photos. Frankly you should skip sending those photos altogether since phones can be hacked and you just never know!
When you don’t know someone well yet, you don’t necessarily know their sense of humor yet which is why subtle is best.
We have many flirty text ideas for you to use in your texting conversations.
A good rule of thumb is to have a text conversation similar to a regular conversation.
Read the text out loud before sending it to make sure it sounds as you mean it to sound to the other person (this is a helpful practice!)
Remember that a little mystery goes a long way. You don’t want to reveal too much, too soon.
Be playful and a little teasing

Texting mistakes that can kill a conversation
Most of these texting mistakes are common sense if you have been texting for a while but they are still good reminders when you are texting someone new.
Do not text full conversations
Keep your conversations short. Remember that you have a life and so does he, so don’t make the mistake of texting about things that should be talked about “in person.”
You do not want to be seen to be needy, which tends to happen if you overdo texting conversations.
Keep the conversation flowing with the same topic
When you are texting, keep in mind the continuation of the conversation. Lets face it, texting can be confusing enough without bringing up random thoughts without ever ending to the last convo.
So lets say that you text him or her about something funny that just happened and before you get an answer you send another text about what you would like to do for the evening.

It is not easy to deal with or converse over text when complaining, ESPECIALLY if you are just getting to know the other person.
They may think that being negative is a larger part of your personality that it may be. Be the person that you want to be around and spend time with
.These are tips of how NOT to kill a conversation but to make it a success.
How do you make a guy fall in love with you over text?
You can’t. You can flirt, entice and get to know someone but real feelings will only grow from spending time together in person.
If you have ever watched “Catfish” then maybe you think that it is possible to fall in love without spending time in person. But real love only grows when you actually have shared experiences.
That includes having both fun and challenging times. Think of it this way, texting is the appetizer to the meal with is the relationship.
Reading body language and tone is necessary to really get to know someone. So use texting to flirt, ask questions and get to know them initially, but it can’t take the place of real interactions and the feelings that grow from that.
3 steps to getting a guy to approach you in person
While we all love the ease of texting, there is still no better way to meet people than in person. So keep these easy steps handy when you are out and want to be approached in public.
(if you are a guy, pay attention to these signals!)
- Hold eye contact for a few seconds and smile.
- Find an excuse to become physically closer so that it is easier to say hello. (this lessens the nervousness to walk over to you)
- Give a compliment or say something in passing, then look away. (lets him know that you are open to talking)
This will give him the signals that are necessary to hold a conversation with you. -Matthew Hussey
