Hey all. Quick question.

Basics of text game, brothers?

it's all an attempt to bridge to a meetup in person

email < facebook < text < phone < in person

say, that crossed my mind. Good answer. So in text game, what should I look out for?

look out for levels of responsiveness,

all the way from girls texting you, and barraging you with 100s of annoying questions

all the way down to girls not answering your text messages

somewhere in between you get to a point where a girl will meet up with you, you want to be at that point, and basically that is what texting is for, touch base, let a girl know you exist, invite her out, if you have NO RAPPORT, then it might help to build a minimal amount of rapport over text and phone, but if you have more then NO RAPPORT, emphasis on ''NO'', then it is not nessicary, you only build the rapport so she actually feels like she is not just meeting some random stranger (flake rate for this will increase obviously)

all in all though, texting only leads to more texting, if you just want to have sex, all that is important is the logistics and how comfortable/attracted she is with you in person

the impression you make in person will be far more important then what you do or say over the text convo, and usually by the time you get there she is already either interested in seeing you again, or not seeing you again, just have to guage her interest, if she is on the fence, might as well stay persistant but don't put too much stock into her, if she is borderline non-responsive, who cares move on, if she is texting you like a crazy person 20x a day, invite that girl out

When I get a number, heres how my text game works.

First, I make sure Im available cause this all leads to her taking me out that day.

Me: Hey *insert cocky/funny name*, what kinda trouble you into
-Also a good place to rehash the moment you met her when you got her digit with a cocky/funny line to play off of.

If you didnt give her your number than she'll either say "Who is this?" or she'll remember you from the moment you brought up with "is this consequences*?"

**This is why its cool to start out a number approach by giving them a nickname they'll remember. Then all you do is start out your text with "Hey *sassy* you stayin out of trouble?" and she'll immediately know who you are.

girls are really good about being jestful and funny so she will give you some cocky funny back to play off of. At the very least she'll respond with "haha no trouble here im a good girl:)" or something to that effect.

Just play off of what she says for a few texts and then invite her out to whatever your wanting to do. Drinks, bowling, quick lunch, whatever.

Sticking points*
-Dont respond too quickly. Comes off as needy. 5-10 minutes is a solid amount of time. Gives her time to think about you inbetween texts

-Be playful. Be the mysterious cool/funny dude that she wants to explore. We are men and we are smarter so we should always win the war of the wits.

-Keep responses short, concise, and to the point.

-Keep a positive frame. Zero negativity aloud from you and if she says something negative just flip it on her or change subjects.

-Sometimes number closes can be tough to get day 2's because I get alotta of #'s in day game without building rapport. The, "Hey your cute, I gotta head off to work but give me your number and I'll get a hold of some time. I love meeting new people" approach gets numbers but with no rapport your still kind of a stranger.

you should have invited her out within the first 45 minutes-hour of texting.

Text game is very very easy because there is no anxiety you may have from live game and you get plenty of time to think of what to say. Just dont over think it.

Hope this helps. Keep in mind some girls really are busy that day. That doesnt mean the battle is over so if she says she cant she has plans or work then wait 2-4days and try again. If the second time doesnt work and she doesnt put any effort into trying to carry on a conversation or meetup on her end then forget it and move one.

Ok. What about girls who's numbers I pick out of thin air? Or more to the point, girls wit whom I do not and did not have any prior connection?

did you even read the above two posts?

Yeah. I did. And that hurt man.
I spooked her a bit back when I was afc via texting.

Ummm, that sounds kinda creepy dude.

MAYBE, if your well known in your town and one of your chick friends gives you one of her hot friends numbers than I would possibly do that. But if you have no prior interaction with this girl via in person, phone, facebook, etc than dont do it. Just dont see any way of you pulling this off without being pretty dang popular already.

There has to be SOME kind of prior connection to even think about texting her.

what about this? ^^^
