So, according to Kezia Noble, when you text a girl you should limit the length/number of your texts to match hers, and you should not text more often or longer.

Apparently the length/number of texts indicates an "imbalance of power"

I think this is total BS, as long as you're not texting her every day, or every minute of the day you're talking.

Sometimes you can't communicate what you want to say in a single paragraph.

Sometimes you need to sit and think about why she's not responding, put yourself in her shoes, wonder what she's thinking about or worried about, and then change direction.

I feel like if you are communicating useful things and you are good with grammar and spelling, you can actually sometimes get a girl to open up and SHE will start texting YOU more if you first set the example.

I mean, are you really supposed to just sit there and not try to make shit happen just because you want to have less words on the screen than she does? That makes no sense. What if she is thinking the same thing? Things will go nowhere.

What is your experience with this? You're simply saying that you don't believe her. What real life experience have you had that disproves what she says? Has that real life experience remained consistent with the majority of women that you've texted?

I agree with this theory and keep it in practice early and even in relationships unless I can't talk to the girl IN PERSON.

Men do much, much better in person with women because they can use posture, voice tone, and eye contact. Men often talk women out of liking them via text, even girls who have affection for them.

I always keep texting fun and light, and if I need to talk with my partner, I arrange a face to face. Relationships are about FUN, period. We're all going to fucking die. Be the fun guy, not the whiny bitch who always has to have serious talks with his girl over text or who has to always check up on her.

It looks feminine for a man to reply with huge blocks of text to a woman's short replies. *She* looks like the busy alpha with shit going on, and you will look like a try-hard nag.

Example:

Her: Hey Arch, how was your day? Mine was a 6 on a 1-10, had some crazy people at work, but I'm looking forward to tonight! Sometimes I think about switching jobs from all this, you know? One of the workers brought in a puppy today, too, a golden lab. Adorable.

You: Hey, glad you made it through the day, and cool about the puppy. See you tonight.


Sending long texts all day is as unattractive as sitting around in a robe at 3pm eating Captain Crunch and watching TV.

Intelligent people can say more with less words.

If you can't express yourself in a paragraph, arrange face to face time.

Remember, game is not about convincing a woman on the fence through text manipulation, lol! It's about investing your time in women who are very interested in you and NOT fucking it up.

It's decent advice for guys that dont know what they are doing

You - How is your day?
Her - Good

If your next message is anything longer than that, you're done. A lot of guys will think that because she responded that she is interested, but a lazy brief response shouldn't be rewarded with any rapport,

An exception when you are to call her out on it

'Good chat'

'Quite the conversationlist'

My only text rule is to get her off the phone and into a real life meet ASAP and with as few text, and as little time invested, as possible.

Seriously, you guys spend way too much time thinking about this.

I've had girls I've texted whored and still closed. All depends on the energy you're acting out of, as I've mentioned in many of my previous posts. If you have to go through these mental gymnastics wondering what the text response ratio should be its probably a good time to re-evaluate your life.

Void, you just agreed with a text ratio scheme, and then ripped text ratio thinking.

When you meet someone new, don't over text it and don't over invest and write (like Arch said) blocks of text. You are allowed that once in relationship but even then I don't like spending much time typing, what's important:

Only purpose of texting is to arrange a date as soon as possible, and preferably send dick pics :lol:


EDIT: Just kidding about sending dick pics (doooh).

You agreed with Warped's "as few texts as possible" text ratio thinking, then trashed text ratio thinking.

Reread Warped's post.

"My only text rule is to get her off the phone and into a real life meet ASAP and with as few text, and as little time invested, as possible."

Note how "with as few text" as possible has nothing to do with ratios. The intent is to use texting in the beginning for logistical purposes to set up a date ASAP. You misunderstood.

If I were to say purchase as few apples as possible at the grocery store, that has nothing to do with ratios. Get it? Good. Let's move on now.

That's a bad analogy. Clearly, his philosophy does indeed revolve around a text ratio.

My philosophy is the same as his: as few texts as possible, get to the point with face to face.

Bad analogy? How so?

Ok, so you're basically in agreement with my and Warped's comment. So, again, how is suggesting fewer texts with the intent of setting up a date have anything to do with ratios? I am simply curious is all.

Let's just say I agree with you and warped about fewest texts required to get face-to-face and call it.
