Top Ten Texting Tips - Before and After Dates!




Here in the Flirtify offices we'd say that playing games (of the dating kind, not the monopoly kind) is a big turn off. Those 'wait 2 hours before you text back' kinda tips are just a bit silly. But, there are some crucial do's and don'ts that you should adhere to....:
  1. Use spell check: loads of errors just makes it look like you don't care! Big mistake.
  2. DON'T WRITE IN CAPITALS it reads like your shouting or just being way too keen. Either way a big no-no.
  3. Super short texts like 'cool' and 'k' are annoying to receive and don't show any of your amazing personality in them.
  4. Wait for them to reply first before sending another message, otherwise you'll look needy. The aim is to ooze sex appeal and a sense of mystery....
  5. Don't wait with your message trail open for a reply because they can see you waiting and watching like a stalker if you have an Apple phone/ipad.
  6. Don't leave it too long to reply either, otherwise you'll both end up playing a ridiculous game of wait a day before replying to look cool. By then you'll both end up uninterested and will have moved on to someone else who's easier to meet up with!
  7. Try not to text when you know they're at work, unless you're already in a fairly serious relationship together.
  8. OMG, LOL, TC, 4, 10X etc. Slang abbreviations should remain with your BFF not your date.
  9. Remain classy at all times. No drunken 'why aren't you texting me back!?' or 'I can do sooooo much better than you anyway' kinds of texts. Get a friend to look after your phone when you reach the slightly tipsy stage....needs must!
  10. If you've made it as far as a date - well done, it means tips 1-9 have gone well! Don't screw it up by checking your phone and texting your friends all the way through your date though. Do it discreetly in the loo or wait until after the dates over. It's important to give your date your undivided attention if you want to give it a good chance of working.
Ever been guilty of any of the above?? Share in the comments below!

ps. #9 is particularly bad if sent by a  drunk 'friend' of yours. Remember your date won't think it's as funny as your 'friend'. We've all been there right? OK just me then.
