For a bolder initial text, send something like, “It’s Maddie—you gave me your number last night. Are you free to meet up today?” or, “Hey, it’s Jane from the club. How’s it going?”
It’s totally fine to keep your thank you text brief. A simple, “Yesterday was so much fun!” or, “I had such a great time last night. 😉” works.
He may appreciate it if you’re specific. This way he won’t overanalyze your text. Send a text like, “You + me + Indian food = ?” or, “I could wait for you to text, but I want to meet up!”
“Can I tell you a secret???” “There’s something you probably don’t know about me. . . 😛” “What’s the weirdest date you’ve ever been on?”
“Who told you you could be so sexy?” “Has anyone ever told you that you’re the strong silent type?” “When can I look at your handsome face again?” “Got time to make a girl/guy’s day?”
Try a text like, “Just a reminder that I’m only a text away. 😏” or “I know I should wait for you to text, but let’s pretend like you did. "
For example, text, “Just so you know: I’d be totally open to you asking me out for a date,” or, “I think we have a real spark. What do you think?”
Make sure that you’re only responding to the newest posts, so you don’t come across as being a bit obsessive. Similarly, just message him about one post instead of several. This gives him a chance to respond.
You might feel stressed out if he seems to blow hot and cold. Ultimately, it’s your call whether or not you want to connect with him.
It’s completely up to you to decide how often you expect him to text. Some people might be willing to wait a day or two, while others would wait up to a week. It’s a matter of personal preference, so go with what your gut tells you.
Think of it this way—if he’s interested in you and he hasn’t heard from you in a while, he might start to wonder what you’re getting up to. Then, don’t be surprised if he’s the one to text first!
