I've noticed through my own texts with guys we often aren't on the same page. I know I'm not the only girl who feels this way. I can't count the times my friends have blown up my phone, or my ears, to discuss their entire texting history with a guy.

Maybe he never texted back, but read it three hours ago (yeah, he's not texting back). Maybe the conversation went terribly downhill. Or maybe they're just confused if the dialogue means anything at all. You name it, I've heard it.

I would venture to say the majority of girls struggle knowing the right thing to say to a guy. This means they often say the wrong things without even knowing it. So, I decided to find out for myself what these wrong things are.

Unfortunately, unlike Kate Hudson's character in "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days," I wasn't able to test my theory on Matthew McConaughey's character and then proceed to fall in love with him. However, I was able to talk to quite a few awesome guys and to discover what texts repel.

Even though the guys come from varying locations and backgrounds and have varying personalities and interests, there were a surprising number of parallels. Of course, all guys are different, but here's a unique insight into the mind of a college-aged boy.

1. "K."

I had no idea how much guys hated the usage of this singular letter until this experiment. Seriously, almost every single one of them explicitly mentioned it. While it clearly makes a statement, don't you hate getting it too?

2. "Why do you always look homeless?"

Hopefully you're not this blunt (even though some girl, evidently, was), but don't criticize a guy's appearance. Would you want a boy telling you that you needed makeup? Yeah, didn't think so.

3. "Thanks, Buddy."

Buddy, pal, friend, bro, man, etc. You might have no intention whatsoever of dating a certain guy, but you don't have to friend zone him so blatantly.

4. String of emojis.📲✨

I know. Emojis are fun. And it's not that you can't use them (in moderation) buried within, or after, messages. But you're talking to a college boy, not the second grader you babysit.

5. "Did you see my Insta? You haven't liked it yet."

This goes for any social media platform. Look, I know we're all trying to up our like game over here, but don't worry; he'll see it.

6. Multiple paragraphs describing a bazillion different things.

I know it's hard when your mind thinks of hundreds of different stories you just have to tell him. But is it necessary that you do it all at once? That's just overwhelming. Guys already have enough trouble figuring out what to say to us. Why make it more difficult by giving them numerous things to respond to?

7. "Why are you ignoring me?"

Sometimes, guys don't text back. It sucks. Trust me, I know. But pestering him about it will most likely make things worse. And who knows: maybe he just forgot. Furthermore, don't over-text a guy. I know maybe you just really want to talk to him, but if you freak him out by blowing up his phone, then he really won't want to talk to you. Let him text first, sometimes.

8. "I don't care." "Sure." "Cool."

I know I just said not to over-text, but don't under-text, either. Some of the guys explained it as follows:

"It’s a big turn off when girls can’t respond back with any questions like if it’s just the guy keeping it flowing. Short, couple word responses make me never want to text them again."

"What I hate the most is the mere fact that some girls can’t carry a conversation."

"Short one or two-word responses are T E R R I B L E. That says the girl is completely disinterested or at least, makes her appear that way."

Worst of all is the "no response." Of course, not everything is worth responding to, but don't cut off the conversation without an explanation. That's just rude.

9) Anything unintelligent.

There's some phase going around that it's cute to act dumb. It's not. And if a guy thinks (or pretends to think) it is, run. Try to text with decent grammar. I'm not saying punctuate everything perfectly, but at least use the different "there's" properly. Also, if a guy texts you about something you don't understand, admit it.

Or since it's a text, you have time to look it up on the internet. Please don't be the embarrassing girl who talks about touchdowns in a baseball game.

10. "Roll Tide."

I think this is self-explanatory. But you probably shouldn't text a guy rooting for his enemy team.

There, you have it. If you send these out, you'll probably lose your guy in less than 10 texts.
