- 1). Send a text message a day or two after your first date ends. You've already said your goodbyes the night of the date, so texting right after the date ends may send signals of desperation. Wait any longer than a day or two and you'll indicate you're not that interested in the other person.
- 2). Include a simple greeting in the first text message and reiterate you enjoyed the date. For example, a text message that includes "Hey, how are you? I had a great time the other night," will suffice.
- 3). Play off of the other person's text messages. There's no boilerplate you can paste as your response message. If the other person seems tentative and shy, try to ask something that requires more than a one word answer, such as "What was your favorite part of the movie?" or anything that applies to your date.
- 4). Write flirty messages. If you only stick to talking about the weather or other mundane subjects, you're not showing interest in the other person. While you don't want to come out and say "I think you're gorgeous," saying that the other person looked good in her blue dress or in his dark jeans is a subtle way of showing interest.
