1. 17 Texts You Should
Never Send Girls & Why

2. Text: What’s up?
This could possibly be the most popular text of all time that
doesn’t work. Why? Because it puts all of the pressure on
her to come up with a response. And it does nothing to
show her that you’re a cool, interesting guy.
How to make it better:
“What’s up? I’m about to head out with a couple of my
friends, we have tickets to ______” (name event)
It gives her something to respond back to and also shows that you’re
doing fun things and you have friends.

3. Text: You’re hot
She’s heard this a thousand times. Send this text and you’
re automatically placed into the friend zone. Or the, “group
of guys that prop up my ego” zone.
How to make it better:
“You have a really unique look and style, it’s different than
most girls that I see”
Specific detailed comments are better than generic ones.

4. Text: Hey Shawtay
There are probably many ways to spell this, but you get the
point. Either way is not a turn on. It does not make women
feel respected.
Cute nicknames are good once you’re dating but not
before.

5. Text: Where do you want to go?
As the guy, you should be leading. Women will find you
more attractive if you suggest ideas or better yet say, “It will
be a surprise, just wear something comfortable.”
How to make it better:
“OK here is the plan: Sushi at 8:15 and then a salsa dance
lesson at 9:30”
Always have a plan and be the leader (even if she wants to do something
different - at least start with a plan)

6. Text: I really, really like you
You shouldn’t be showing your hand too soon. If you show
too much interest right away, she will lose interest. It’s a
strange thing, but that’s how it works.
How to make it better:
“I feel like we have a good connection, but there is still
more that I need to know about you.”
Showing that you have standards - she hasn't completely won you over yet.

7. Text: I don’t know, what do you
want to do?
Again, be the leader and have a plan. Have an idea of what
you want to do, then make a suggestion. Don’t force her to
make a decision for you.
How to make it better:
“I know a great new restaurant that just opened, lets check
it out.

8. Text: Did you have fun tonight?
This text says to her that you are seeking validation. That
you are worried if she had fun or not. It may seem like a
“nice” thing to do, but it screams neediness. And nothing
turns a girl off faster than a needy guy.
How to make it better:
“Tonight was fun. I’m glad you turned out “normal” ha for
the most part :p”
This is a text that might be sent after a date. Don’t seek
approval or be worried if you don’t think she had fun.

9. Text: Can I see you later?
Here is another needy text to send. It will crush all
attraction towards you. If you play the game right, she
should be sending this text to YOU.
How to make it better:
“I’m in the mood for some bowling later. Come join my team
so that we can kick everyone's butt.”
Shows that you are living your life and she can be part of it. You’re not needy
and just “waiting” around for her.

10. Text: Why haven’t you text me
back?
Remember, you’re the prize. Women are chasing YOU and
not the other way around. If you start to get upset it gives
her the power.
How to make it better:
“You’ve been arrested again haven’t you”
She replies: “lol no”
Reply: “ha well I haven’t heard from you in three days so I figured you were in
lockup or something :p”
Make it playful like it’s no big deal

11. Text: Whatever, you’re a bitch.
Any text where you’re getting mad at a girl, you should not
send. Don’t get mad at girls for not texting you back. This
simply means that you have things to work on or just go
find another girl. And remember, who ever reacts the least,
holds the most power. If you get upset, clearly she holds
the power.

12. Text: It’s been three weeks and I
haven’t heard from you?
Guys tend to do this all the time. They will get fixated on
one girl and try desperately to get her to like him, even
when she's not responding back.
How to make it better:
“I swear I just met your twin. Crazzzzy”
This is “conversation bait.” It would be hard for her not to
respond and say, “where?”
Be vague and give her something that she MUST respond to out of curiosity.

13. Text: When am I going to see you
again?
This just makes me cringe reading it. But I’m pretty sure
that I’ve sent girls this text before. It’s embarrassing. Create
a lifestyle that she wants to be a part of. She will be asking
you, “when am I going to see YOU again?”
Tip:
Talk about the interesting things that are going on in your life. Find a passion
and have goals that give you a deeper meaning than anything else. Women
will be draw to you because of that.

14. Text: Hi
This text does nothing to engage her on an emotional level.
It’s not interesting. At all.
How to make it better:
“Hi, I like that you have a good sense of style and fashion.
I was in Montreal (name city) last week ( ⇐ high value
statement) and you remind me of the women there.”
Gives her more to talk about and shows that you’re an interesting guy who
travels.

15. Text: What up girl?
Does this even need an explanation? Don’t call her girl, or
baby, or hun, unless you’re dating.
This shows lack of respect for her. Not good.

16. Text: How are you doing?
This is similar to the, “what’s up text.” It is very boring,
generic, and safe. You need to be a little more edgy and
original to get her to respond back.
How to make it better:
“how are you doing? I’m doing awesome…” (go into a
story about something that you’re doing. Give her more to
respond to and help her get to know you)

17. Text: Mirror Selfie
Never send a girl a “selfie” picture of you in front of the
mirror. No matter how good a guy looks, girls hate this
(period).
Save those for after you’re dating each other

18. Text: Please respond back if you’ve
got this message.
Needy. Needy. Needy.
She definitely got the message but didn’t respond.
