Is there a perfect first text message?

I met a girl at the weekend. danced. laughed. kissed. She left without giving me her number. (school boy error... i know)

Our mutual friend has sent me her number. Is there a perfect first text message I can send to spark her interest? (better than the lame 99% of texts a 7/8 will recieve)


Much love

I wouldnt advice for texting a girl without her giving you her number directly. It's a bit creepy, and it shows too much interest (the wrong way in my humble opinion). If you know her name or something, and still want to get in touch, you may want to add her on Facebook.

It's less intrusive at least.

In any case, a text message that has worked for me countless times is:

"Hi, it's ____, the most interesting person you've met on a Wednesday afternoon lol. How are you?"

This usually works for me because it matches with the personality I project and that she saw the first time we met. So if you want to use it make sure it relates back to whom you are.

Good luck.

Thanks for your reply Barsario!

My biggest concern is coming off too needy. A simple message is all I need to open some dialogue. I wonder if asking questions is the wrong way to go? Maybe just a statement... it says ive thought about her I dont need anything from her?

Your ideas are valued

What kind of question do you have in mind?

Please understand that the simple fact you're getting in touch with her shows that you were thinking about her. You do need something from her: Her response back. Her interest. Her attention.

You don't want to sound needy yet you went and got the number from a third party without her permission. This is seemed as incongruent behavior.

She knows why you're texting, so if you're going to do it just go all in or nothing at all. I already gave you a statement that could work, but feel free to adjust it anyway you want. Keep it simple and make sure you at least remind her who you are. Remember that she doesn't have your number (and she didn't give it to you) so if you don't clarify who you are she may not even respond.

Is there a way for you to physically see her again? If you have friends in common, why don't you make it happen? That way you can ask for her number in person and make things easier for yourself.

P.S. Don't ask complicated questions. She'll never respond if you use that as your opening statement
