Flirting by text can be a great way to strengthen the connection between you and your crush. Sending a text to him or her every once in a while can help them think about you more often; this way you will always be on their mind. This will be a great way to have some flirty fun while getting to know each other, that way you will be more comfortable when you get more intimate. Besides, flirting by text will also help you gauge how attracted you are to each other.
If you would like to give them a hint for future occasions or simply for those days when you would like to keep them hanging, you can send them something to reassure them. A good way to do this is sending something like ‘In case you are wondering, I love ____ chocolates and sunflowers *wink face emoji*’ or ‘When you want to treat me, I love____ *wink face*’ This kind of text has the added benefit of letting them know something about you and it also lightens up the mood. So when the time comes, you can see if they remember the little fact about you.
Another popular text you can use at the beginning of the relationship is very flirty and forward: do you like making the first move or do you prefer the other person taking the leap? This will let them know what is on your mind, but it is also a very forward way to put yourself out there.
When you are looking for a reason to see them, you can either invite them over to your house or invite yourself over to theirs.. but how can do you subtly do this? Well, the trick is to be playful, so you can send something like ‘I will bring you the amazing cupcakes I baked if you can answer these two trivia questions.’ Alternatively, you can phrase it so they come to you. The general idea is to use something food-related (extra points if you do it with their favorite food) to lure them in. You will be giving them the perfect opportunity to come to you.
Another trick is to simply follow back with something you have discussed earlier. For instance, if they have told you to see a particular movie or TV show, you can text them ‘I finally got around to watching it. Want to join me?’ Or you can invite them to try a particular food or restaurant you have talked about previously. If you like this idea, you don’t have to make an excuse to see them; this kind of text is a great conversation starter or a good way to resume the conversation if you feel it has stalled.
If you study or work with them, you can always use an assignment as an excuse. You can text them, ‘Oh, can you believe the amount of study we have to do? Want to have a study date?’ Or ‘do you want to meet so we can review the presentation we have later this week?’ Being close together becomes a definite advantage, so don’t be afraid to use it!
When you want to compliment them but are to shy to do it in person, you can always text them. We as people tend to be less shy and bolder when we are behind a screen, so you can text them something mild like, ‘love seeing you in that shirt’ or something racier like ‘your butt looked great in that outfit’ Just make sure the compliment matches the comfort level you are at in the relationship wink*
It is also a good idea to let them know when you are thinking of them. If you see something that reminds you of them, don’t hesitate in letting them know through a text. This will probably improve their day and will indicate they are important to you wink*
