Let’s be honest. How many times have you overanalyzed what to text him back? If you’re anything like me, you’ve done this more than once. So here are ten high-value texts to send him whenever you're not sure what to say.
1. When he asks you out on a date last minute
There are exceptions to every rule, but if a guy texts you last minute wanting to go out with you, I think it's always best to show him that you won't always be his "on call" girl.
"You love to give me lots of notice! ;) I'm actually busy tonight, but I'd love to see you. Gimme some notice next time and I'll see if I can make it work!"
2. When he's "too busy"
This may be one of the exceptions to the rule when he texts you about going out with him last minute. But remember that guys will always move mountains to be with a girl he really wants. It's okay if the guy you're dating is "too busy", but he should value and respect your schedule too.
"Oh wow! You have time? Lol. Well I'll see if I can squeeze you in... ;)"
3. When he "booty calls" you
This is where you want to turn down his attempt without turning him down.
"As much as I'd love to spend time with you (and I really do lol) I'm just not the type of girl who hangs out with a guy so late unless I'm actually dating them."
4. When he disappears and you want to rekindle his interest
You want to send him a message that entices him. Sometimes guys disappear because they want to know that the attraction isn't one sided.
"I'm at that awesome Mexican restaurant you told me about in (city/area)! You should totally be here right now."
5. When you want to know if he's seeing other people
There is a confident way to do this without coming across needy or insecure.
"Are you seeing anyone else right now, or even thinking about it? It's totally fine if you are, but it just lets me know where your head is."
6. When you want him to express his emotions to you
Sometimes it's hard to get someone to open up to you, but I think the most important thing is that you let them know when they do, their emotions are safe with you.
"I'm always on your side, handsome. Tell me what's bothering you. We're a team. If I don't know, I can't help you fix it."
7. When he says he "needs space"
You dress up as a galaxy and send him a picture of course! Nah, just kidding, but you do support what he wants.
"Of course, I completely understand. I'll miss you tons, but I'm glad you're getting some time with the guys. Have fun!"
8. When you want him to stop texting all the time and call you occasionally instead
There are a few ways to do this, but here's one of them.
"I've been thinking about you today! I'm busy this afternoon, but gimme a call later tonight and we'll catch up."
9. When you want to send him a cute and flirty text to make him smile
Cheeky and playful text messages are always fun ways to open the conversation for the day.
"I just can't get you off my mind and it's starting to annoy me a bit ;)"
10. When you want to change bad behavior
Be direct as possible, but don't nag him. Show him that you know he's a good person while letting him know you're upset with his behavior.
"You are always so kind and respectful to me. But I just feel like what you're doing isn't kind or respectful and I know that's not in your character."
