Texting the girl you like is a great way to get to know her more and exchange a few flirty messages. Convincing her to like you back might take a little while, but by taking things slow and having a fun conversation, you can show your crush just how awesome of a person you are. We’ve compiled some texting tips that you can use to persuade your crush to like you back in no time!

1

Keep the conversation light and positive.

  1. Your goal is to be playful and flirty, not heavy! When you’re texting a girl that you like, talk about superficial stuff, like school, work, and your hobbies. Keep the conversations fun and lighthearted so the person is interested to continue the conversation. Save the deeper conversations for when you’re together in person so that you have something to talk about IRL.[1]
    • It’s pretty hard to get your tone across over a text message, which is another reason why you might want to save the heavier topics for a later time.
    • Try talking about things like your pets, your friends, and what you like to do for fun.

Create an inside joke together.

  1. If you’ve known her for a little while, try this out. Creating an inside joke gives you two a special connection, and it’s one she won’t share with anyone else. Maybe you made a silly typo over text a while ago, and you two couldn’t stop giggling about it. Or maybe you shared a funny video of a guy tripping in the street, and it made you both laugh really hard. Text her something like:[7]
    • “About to go on a run. Hope I don’t run into a pole like that guy in the vid!”
    • “Hope you ace (not ice!!!) the test today!”

Ask her to meet up in person.

  1. If you two are really clicking, try asking her out on a casual date. Keep things light, and try going for a casual vibe. If she’s interested in you, you two can start planning your date, and you can settle on a place and time to meet up and chat in person. Text her something like:[11]
    • “Have any plans this weekend? I was thinking of checking out that new coffee shop if you wanted to join me.”
    • “I’m going to be in your area next week, are you free to meet up at all?”
    • Some girls get a little shy about meeting up in person, especially if you two don’t know each other IRL yet. If that’s the case, just give her some time, and keep having a text convo with her until she’s ready.
