1. What's a good opener to start a conversation
2. what should you talk about?

I text girls as little as possible. I look at it as empty comfort. You get no kino, you don't know what are jokes and not, hard to flirt, etc. The only reason to text a girl is to say hi for a bit, loosen her up, and plan a day to get together. The transition was tough for me because I used to be such a heavy texter but then I realized that all the girls I texted just became friends and almost nothing else.

try that out for openers though. Just keep texting limited and think about your pace. Always wait around at least 9 min. to reply back

well im trying to score some points with this girl i kinda like so any tips

you want to score points?

then Man the fuck up and phone her, don't think off what to say or how to say it. Just phone her.

You won't score much points if any by texting man, but if you really really have to then i agree with fox. Use it to set something up and NOT to have a conversation with her.

Agreed. Texting is for children, but I'm just an old fart so what do I know about gaming teenagers?? lol

Think of communication in hierarchical terms, based on the amount of impact, emotional content, etc. your message can convey. Text is the lowest on the hierarchy, followed by IM and email and then maybe telephone and live convo. The highest level of communication is physical communication, as in her being unable to speak due to the exchange of certain bodily fluids....

Most people respond well to a human voice, especially in an age of technology disconnect. I might use email just to coordinate dates or whatever, or if a girl really likes reading I'll charm the pants right off her hot little body via email but once I've talked to a girl, usually I don't go backwards in the hierarchy of communication.

well we are friends but i dont think we close enough for me to call her thats why i kinda wanted to get more in touch with her through texting so later i can call her

Then text her and tell her "I have heard something rather interesting about you, i find it intriguing"

Thats all, No hi's or bye's... nada! don't reply to her response. Then give her a call later... the convo should be easy to run allready as she would most likely love know what it is that you know. Ofcourse you dont shit so just play around with her head a bit. I'm sure things will flow from there. Just don't chit chat, make your intentions clear that you want her beef and set something up.

goodluck

You are friends you say, by texting her and getting more intouch with her will only make you better friends, so be careful there.

can anyone help me out

I didn't read all the posts, but don't listen to the first couple guys.

Sounds like you got oneitis, but the best way to get her to like you is talking with her all the time so that she feels incomplete when you're not talking to her. Texting is the best method of going about doing so.

No one can give you advice on what exactly to say because texting goes on for a long period of time if done right and not just used to set up plans. But over time texting will help you with your game. Keeping a conversation going over text is difficult, but if you can entertain the girl through the phone you are a great conversationalists. You just have to think and be witty, but not an asshole, in everything you say. This type of thinking/talking will make it a lot easier in person for you to be witty around women.

I myself got ditched 20 min. before I was supposed to pick a girl up for a movie tonight, most likely because she got to shy. But, we've been texting ever since she sent her "ditch-text" for the better part of 4 hours straight now. I don't remember what we've talked about, but I feel good with everything I say and confident that each text I send is making her chuckle. She's basically eating out of my hands SPAM, and rescheduled our date by herself.

Texting is marvelous if you can actually think of what to say. Would I recommend it for some AFC that has a few quirky routines and witty lines? No. Because then he's out of material with this girl for the rest of their existence. Which is probably why the first posters are opposed to it.

But for the guy who has actually trained his mind to think of smart comments to anything said, I would recommend it whole heartedly. You will show the girl you can keep a conversation going over text, and in person. She will be melting at your fingertips waiting to hear what you have to say next. AKA you are AMOGing.

Great advice having not read all the posts.
Texting her non stop will not get her to like you, perhaps it will make you one of her "girlfriends". But thats about it.

Does the OP want to "score points" so he can be her daily dose of chit chat or does he want to "score points" so he can fuck her?

If it is the latter, well then good fucking luck trying to accomplish that via bombarding her with texts.
Texting is the easiest thing to do, there is nothing difficult about sitting in your comfort zone and trying to think of what to say. My opinion in texting is that it should be used strategically and sparingly & not to converse with someone. It just show a lack of confidence/ balls/ skills/ etc etc - theres many
When you receive a text, there is plenty time to think of the ultimate response to score some brownie points.

When confronted in person you have seconds to respond, your body language, tone and speech all have to be congruent. Its a different ball game man, texting will NOT make you some kind off mack daddy when confronted in person.

What is the big deal with phoning the girl. Grow some fucking balls and call her. You want to be her friend with no benefits then text her all day long every day.

What i meant by scoring points is trying to get her to like me

He specifically said he liked this girl. Not, "guys i need help with a quick fuck." So I gave him advice on how to get her attention and be more than a fuck.
If texting is "easy" like you said, why wouldn't you utilize the skill? It is easy, which is why I recommend using it. Spending some time constantly giving a good response will train your mind to do it faster/easier in person.

A lot of pepple on this site sit around and read constantly thinking "yes this will work so good I can't wait to try it" but they never get the balls to do it. So texting allows them the comfort of hiding behind a screen while they practice getting up some gaming skills. I never said texting was the end all be all, it just helps.

This guy was asking for advice on texting, so rather than ripping him a new butthole and just telling him to grow some balls, I gave him advice. Sorry.

so you have any tips on how to start a conversation with her other than "hey" and what i can talk to her about to keep the convo going

anyone?
