Five Rules of Texting Someone Like part-I #58

 

Relationship building is your dating life’s most important skill.

The following rules apply to people who are trying to get closer to another human being through the medium of text messaging. Keep in mind, some the rules also apply to the professional world and its relationships.

Here’s 5 rules you weren’t taught in school. 5 rules that are much more practical than the ‘latter writing’ you were taught in school.

With the lockdown style scenario set to continue for the foreseeable future, texting is a life skill that is currently more crucial than ever.

 

1.     Basic First

-          Don’t use short form and say something:

Get your spelling and sentence construction right. Most people straight up reject someone who types using short forms that’s not how 21^st century adults text.

 

-          By default, reply quickly:

But they taking time to reply to you, mirror their break durations.

Quick replies to a slow texted might come off as you being desperate or ‘Too available’

Slow replies to a quick texted might come off as yours being lazy or ‘not interested’

 

 

-          Mirror their energies/texting styles:

If someone is replying with a single sentence or a single word, chances are that they’re not interested in texting you. Either make them interested or know when to back off. What if they’re committed to something? What if they aren’t interested in dating you all? Be perceptive of your love interest’s mind.

 

-          It’s always easier to build relationship in person:

It will always be difficult to build relationship over text. But texting offers its own benefit (ability to express through written word, ability to share digital content, ability to reach at a much slower pace than real life conversions).

Use the benefit of the texting games to your advantage.

 

2.    How to break the ice?

First, ask yourself where you stand in this person’s life.

-          If you know them well, the games are easy over text (they’re a friends who you wish to be even closer to);

Begin conversation with inside jokes or references from shared experiences. Your conversation skill will come into play after breaking the ice.

-          If you know them somewhat, the game is slightly header (they’re on the same WhatsApp group on in your collages/office):

Professional/academic with a ‘Have you studies for the test?’

‘I think I might be able to help you with this part of your career’

-          If you don’t know them at all:

Be honest with your nitration’s. Honesty and class create great first impressions.

 

-          More advice:

Another great way of breaking the ice is becoming friends first say that you ’I’d just like to get know them better. And then gradually build your relationship with them.

Ask a mutual friend to ‘wingman’ you or help break the ice by introducing you somehow (this could even mean adding you to the same WhatsApp/Instagram group).

Becomes digital friends first. Then see where it goes.

 

Replying to their social media stories is a great way to begin a conversion.
