    10 GOLDEN RULES OF

    IRRESISTIBLE TEXTS

    The truth is... 

    When it comes to dating successfully there are very few ‘rules’. If

    there were, why would the people who always seem to get what they

    want from relationships never stick to them?

    Sure some guys can burn the rule book- and still be successful- but

    if you’re a guy that doesn’t have a 100% batting average then these ‘rules’

    (or shall we call them guidelines?) are well worth sticking to.

    If you find girls often cancel, or never commit, to dates; if you don’tget the responses you want, if the girl you like loses interest halfway

    through, or if you just want to get better...I’d kick start your Irresistible

     Texts overhaul with my 10 Golden Rules of Irresistible Texts.

    1. Don’t ask vague questions:

    Make a question too broad and it becomes very difficult to answer; so

    steer clear of ‘how have you been?’, ‘what have you been up to recently?’ if

    you want an answer that’s better than, ‘oh stuff...’

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    9/99

    2. Be specific:

    Want to set a date that she’ll agree to? Then be very clear about

    what it involves. Ask, ‘what are you up to this Saturday?’ and she’ll haveno idea what she’s committing to. The result? She won’t commit to a date

    and will give you a flaky response. Be clear about what you want to do

    with her, so she knows what she’s agreeing to. Even better, make it sound

    exciting and she’s more likely to say yes. So replace, ‘What are you up to

    this Friday?’, with ‘Let’s sling back rum daiquiri cocktails after work Friday.’

    2. Counter demand:

    If she asks you to do something for her: make a counter demand.

    For instance, if she can only meet on a certain day; choose the location

    and what you’re doing. If she makes a financial demand make it clear that

    she’s buying the next round. Or if she is playing hard to get- say that youcan only meet her for a limited time.

    3. Make decisions:

    Instead of planning the date around her, plan the date for yourself.

    Instead of asking her what food she’d prefer, take her somewhere thatyou want to check out. Instead of asking her what time she’s free: tell her

    what days are best for you to meet.

    4. Use strong language:

     There’s no ‘if’s’, ‘but’s’, ‘maybe’s’, or ‘would you like to’s’ about it. Whenasking a girl out, you want to state your intentions like it’s already a done

    deal. So scrap all the, ‘would you like to maybe...’ and replace rapidly with

    ‘let’s try...’

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    10/99

    5. Don’t accept second place:

    If she doesn’t give you a firm ‘yes’ back, then accept it as a ‘no’. ‘I’ve

    got to check my schedule’, ‘I may be meeting a friend that night’ etc allcan be reinterpreted as ‘I’m just not that into you’. That doesn’t mean you

    give up, but you may need to swap tactics.

    6. Mirror her levels of investment:

    If she’s says she can’t see you for a long time first of all note GoldenRule 5; then mirror her! Act like you’re busy too, and are pushed for time

    to link up. Back off a little, rather than pushing her to commit to more

    time with you, when she’s already pulling away.

    7. Match her ratio:

     This means that you do not send her tons of texts in a row and blow

    up her phone, if she doesn’t respond. Keep the ratio of your texts 1:1

    where possible. If she doesn’t reply, then at least give her a couple of days

    of space before you try her again.

    8. Act nonchalant if she says ‘no’:

    If you get a flat out ‘no’, or an ‘I’m busy’, do not get angry with her!

     This will only show that you care more about this than she does, and will

    only act as a disincentive for her seeing you again. If in doubt an ‘ok cool

    x’ works wonders.

    9. Try a low commitment date first:

    Getting a number is not a licence to have a date with a girl: so

    don’t expect to get one easily, especially if you only met her briefly, or

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    11/99

    if she seemed uncertain about giving you her number. Under these

    circumstances the number is a little ‘cold’ and so a date that’s easy for her

    to commit to (like coffee, or after work drinks on a week night) may be

    more likely to get a positive response than offering to fly her to Paris forthe weekend, or taking her out for a flashy meal.

    10. Go for it!:

    Lots of times text interactions can run on and on without the

    guy asking the girl out. This just kills the mystery and attraction of theexchange. Don’t send her 20, or even 10, texts in a row without suggesting

    a date. As long as she’s giving you positive signs (check out my section on

    ‘going for the date’) then tie her down to a commitment quickly. Don’t

    let the interaction lose momentum. Don’t leave her wondering whether

    you’re into her. Don’t snooze and lose. Be direct and confident that if you

    get knocked back, you’ll have a better idea of where you stand and howto make the best out of the situation.

    SOME KEY CONCEPTS

    Now before I launch into my 125 unique text templates, and tips,there’s just a few more key concepts to understand.

     Throughout this eBook I may mention some ‘theory’ (nothing too

    heavy, promise) which I’ll do my best to explain in this section. If any of

    the terminology is unfamiliar at any time then please flick to the Glossary

    section at the back for a detailed explanation.

    Wrapping your head around these concepts is important though: it

    will mean you’ll have an improved understanding of where to use certain

    messages, and maybe where things haven’t quite gone to plan in the

    past.

    And yes unfortunately you do need to know what text is the right

    one to send to which girl: all women, and interactions are unique, and

    must be treated as such.

    Get it wrong and it will be like using a sledge hammer to pick a lock;

    or the textual equivalent of believing all women are the same. Anyonewho has ever loved women, kissed them, endeavoured to buy a birthday

    present for them, will know this is never the case...

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    13/99

    Investment

     The most important concept in Irresistible Texts, and arguably most

    relationships; is what I refer to as investment.

    Investment, in this context, is how much you care about the outcome

    of something. How much you put into something.

    In relationships the ideal scenario would be a 50/50 tussle for

    investment: a perfect match in terms of how much time you want tospend together, where you see the relationship going, how much you

    want things to ‘work out’.

    So what does this have to do with texts?

    Well, just like in other areas of your dating life the key is usually tounderstand how invested another person is in you; and to mirror their

    investment.

    Let me give you some examples as to why this is important.

    Say you meet a lovely girl on your commute and get her number.You drop her a cool and witty text yet she doesn’t reply. It’s not that she

    didn’t like you, but she had a busy evening when she got home and just

    forgot all about it. You text her again: this time you sound a little agitated

    at her lack of response. She recognises your annoyance, and is put off

    from contacting you again- she decides you may not be the right guy for

    her, so she decides to leave it. By this stage you feel really disappointedand frustrated: you thought you got on so well. You send another text.

    She feels freaked out by your intensity and deletes your number. She also

    probably jokes about this ‘crazy guy’ she met to her friends.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    14/99

    What’s weird is, that it wasn’t that you were incompatible, or that she

    didn’t like you: but your intensity scared her off.

    Another example?

    You’ve been texting a girl for a few days and it seems to be going

    well. She is responding to all of your messages and you feel excited about

    your date this Friday. But when Friday night comes around, she cancels,

    last minute. You text her next week and she replies again: but when you

    go for the date, no response. You skim back through the messages andrealise that whilst you were doing everything to keep the conversation

    going (that ‘Goodnight snuggle Vixen’ message was a little cringe worthy

    in hindsight) her replies were, well, a bit crap. Lots of ‘Lol’, ‘haha’ and ‘:) xxx’.

    Apparently these aren’t the good signs you thought they were, and you

    slowly realise whilst you were busy entertaining her, she was probably

     just replying for the sake of replying.

    Both these problems are to do with investment: she has not invested

    as much as you. There are several factors that influence investment:

    • How long you were speaking to her for when you first got

    the number.

    • How long you’ve been in contact in proportion to how

    much physical time you’ve spent together (face time is

    always preferable to text time so try to get her to commit

    to a date quickly).

    • How willing she was to give you her number.

    • What other guys she has in her life right now.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    15/99

    And there are several ‘warning signs’ of low investment:

    • She takes ages to respond

    • Her texts are brief and consist more of emoticons than real

    content.

    • She doesn’t make an effort to keep the conversation going.

    • She seems to cool off, or doesn’t respond, whenever yousuggest meeting in person.

    If she is behaving in a low investment way, it’s not the end of the

    world; but it does mean you may need to play the game a little differently.

    Maybe your date suggestion will be a quick coffee, rather than a daytrip to the zoo. You also may want to use more conversational hooks, and

    if that fails, try teasing her to prompt more of a reaction.

    High risk messages which are short, punchy and tricky for her to

    respond to are likely not to go down so well: though sometimes a low

    investment response can be broken by you being much more direct. Soif you’ve been texting for ages- and yet haven’t quite managed to ask her

    out- then pick up the phone; or send a message a bit like this:

    “Am I the only one who’s bored of texting?

    Conversations always better in real life- let’s try to link

    up for coffee this week x”

    Hot/cold numbers

    Some numbers are just more solid than others.

    Sometimes an interaction that you thought went amazingly well

    comes to nothing: other times that 30 second pick up you did with the

    girl at the bus stop, bites ridiculously well.

     There are some general rules though which can dictate which

    numbers are more solid than others. I distinguish between these twokinds of numbers by calling them ‘hot’ or ‘cold’. A cold number is one that

    is flakier: or harder work to convert into a date.

    Some characteristics of cold numbers:

    • You may have got a girl’s number in a rush, and only spent avery short amount of time with her.

    • She was hesitant to give her number out.

    • She gave her number with an excuse: ‘my phone may not

    work in the UK’ etc.

    • She doesn’t always respond.

    • She uses lots of low investment ‘lols’, ‘hahaha’s’ and smilies

    to keep the conversation going.

    • She doesn’t ask about you or give any further details about

    herself.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    17/99

    A hot number on the other hand is much stronger to begin with:

    and as long as no major screw ups in your Irresistible Texts occur, should

    convert into a date:

    • You met a girl through an existing social circle.

    • You spent a long time talking to the girl: maybe even went

    on an ‘instant date’ then and there.

    • You discussed linking up again during your initial meeting.

    • She responds relatively quickly and at a decent length.

    • She offers you details about her life.

    • She asks you questions.

    So how differently would you treat a hot versus a cold number?  

    If it’s a hot number you’ll probably be able to get her to commit to

    a date on messages 2-3; a cold number you’ll need to wait until you get

    enough ‘investment’ from her: that’s ‘signs she’s ready for a date’.

    If it’s a hot number momentum (we’re coming to that in a second)

    is slightly less important. You can leave it a little longer before getting

    in contact. With a cold number if you leave it a week, her interest will

    probably have cooled to zero.

    If it’s a hot number if you want to you can ask for a higher commitment

    date like a night out, or dinner. If it’s a cold number stick to a quick coffee

    or after work cocktails.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    18/99

    If it’s a hot number you sometimes need to just play it cool enough;

    with a cold number you may need to use more connecting and teasing

    texts to build interest from her... depending on what kind of messages

    she responds best to.

    Remember interactions between a man and a woman need sexual

    tension to keep the interest going. If there was a huge spark, and a great

    experience, when you first met- her interest levels are going to stay higher

    for longer than an interaction that was lukewarm. And you ALWAYS want

    to go for the date when the proverbial iron is as hot as possible.

    So when you’re using my text templates always bear in mind how

    ‘hot’ the interaction is: and ALWAYS try to go for the date when the

    interaction is at its peak. Just remember this peak is so often ‘ASAP’; so

    when you get those ‘buying signs’ that she’s ready for the date GO FOR IT.

    Momentum

    No matter how solid the number is, or isn’t, momentum is always

    fundamental to ensuring you get that date.

    As I’ve mentioned before, you’ve got to think of an interaction ashaving different degrees of ‘warmth’- how strongly connected to a girl

    you are.

     To explain this concept more clearly I’m going to run you through a

    couple of scenarios:

    • How a hot number can become cold

    • How a cold number can become hot

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    19/99

    Hot to Cold:

    You decide to go to a friend’s house party on Saturday. You see a cute

    girl across the room, who your friend has known since school. You hit itoff by teasing her about how much punch she’s drinking: and throughout

    the night seem to spend most of your time locked into conversation. You

    get her number early on (you both support Chelsea FC!) and when you

    leave you think you should have kissed her. You send her a message a few

    days later (you don’t want to come on too strong) and you get a response

    fairly quickly. Again you decide to leave it a while before responding. Soonyou’re swapping texts every few days and a week passes. You’re not sure if

    she wants to meet up again so you procrastinate on asking her out- and

    kind of hope she’ll suggest something to you. Her responses become less

    frequent. You panic so text more: and break the 1:1 text ratio. Lots of your

    texts are a little pointless and don’t have a purpose. By the time you really

    want to ask for the date the number is dead.

    Cold to hot:

    You see a cute girl waiting to get on a bus and you force yourself

    to approach. She’s a little taken aback at first, but warms up after the

    first minute: then her bus comes. You push for a number, and after somehesitation she agrees. You send her something witty later that day, making

    reference to her bus journey and how random it was meeting her. She

    responds with a short low investment message the next day. Later that

    evening you use an assumption to guess about what she’s up to & to try

    to build more of a connection with her. It works- this time her response

    is more engaged. You then switch to teasing her and she responds evenfaster, teasing you back. Recognising the signs that she’s getting more

    into you: you are direct and state that you think coffee tomorrow after

    work is a great idea. She agrees...

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    20/99

    You may see some of yourself in these scenarios...

    When you choose to escalate, your ability to keep the interaction

    interesting, reacting successfully to her, and going in for the date at thenearest possible opportunity are all key factors influencing why the

    momentum of the interaction is so important.

    Space

    What’s better than you getting angry with a girl’s flaky responses?What do you do when she doesn’t respond how you want How do you

    behave when she becomes cooler towards you. One of the most valuable

    tools at your Irresistible Texts disposal is space. Sometimes the best action

    is inaction.

    Look back to my Golden Rules section: 6. Mirroring her investmentlevels are very important. Seem way more into her than she’s into you,

    and your disproportionate investment will scare her off. Sometimes

    giving a person space is the best way forward.

    Space allows you to:

    • Maintain your cool.

    • Consider your response.

    • Allow her to miss your attention and consider her actions.

    • Not appear needy or emotionally volatile.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    21/99

    Some great times to use space would be:

    • If she sends a message that doesn’t require a response

    (‘hahaha’ or ‘Great thanks- have a good day’ are examplesof this).

    • If she doesn’t reply to you asking for the date.

    • If her response to you asking for the date is flaky, mirror her

    investment levels with an ‘ok rain check! Mad busy over heretoo...’ then give her space.

    • If she’s rude beyond just being playful.

    Space doesn’t mean you’re never texting her again. It just means

    you’re giving her a little time to consider her actions before you take thisany further. The general rule of thumb is giving a couple of days of space

    for the first ‘offence’; then for every ‘offence’ after that extend how long

    she does ‘space time’ for.

    Being a ‘space cadet’ who is non-needy can be incredibly powerful:

    when used in the right way. Appear cool, calm and independent throughyour messages and you always leave the door more open for recontacting

    using a ping message: than if you fly off the handle.

     A BASIC IRRESISTIBLE

    TEXTS STRUCTURE 

    If you’re thinking, ‘yikes that diagram is making my head hurt’ don’t

    panic! There are some very simple rules at play here:

    • If you get a warm response you are always trying to escalate

    the interaction. So if you get a positive response you movethings in the direction of meeting up in person.

    • You focus on setting up the date scenario before you

    arrange the logistics (more on this later).

    • You keep momentum up: and stay in some contact withthem until the date has happened.

    • If at any stage you don’t get the response you want use ping

    game to try to re-engage them.

    • If their response becomes colder then you can try usingconnection building/ teasing texts to get their response

    to a level of warmth where suggesting a date makes sense

    again.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    24/99

    And that is a basic structure to how all these guidelines and theories

    may play out in real life.

    Now let’s check out some examples of the text messages you can use...

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    25/99

    IRRESISTIBLE TEXTS RULE

    BOOK: FIRST TEXTS

    An Introduction to First Texts

    First texts require no explanation, but that doesn’t make them any

    easier to write. The first impression you make is important. You want to

    hit the tone just right so that you come across as friendly but still sexy,interested but not needy, direct but not dismissive.

    Get the tone wrong and decrease your odds of a response. Don’t get

    a response to your first text and then you straight away have to consider

    whether you should call the girl, risk sending two texts in a row, or angrily

    deleting the girl’s number (not that I’d usually advise you to do this, or getangry full stop).

    When?

    You know that old rule about leaving it two days before you respond

    to a girl? Forget it. Now. That rule was created when people only had alandline, and unhappy singletons spent their evenings clicking through

    their voicemail. Now that we are never more than a foot from our BB, or

    iEverythings it just doesn’t make sense any longer to wait ages before

    sending her that first message.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    26/99

    If you meet a girl during the daytime then drop her a text a couple

    of hours after you’ve met. If you meet her at night, try the next afternoon.

    In short strike whilst the iron is hot! That way she’ll remember howgreat the interaction was, you’ll have a genuine connection and she’ll

    remember the reasons why she gave you her number in the first place.

    Rules of text thumb

    Look, as I’ve mentioned to you before there aren’t so much in theway of ‘hard and fast rules’ as there are ‘generally sensible guidelines’.

    Each text, interaction and relationship is unique and should be treated as

    such. That said when you’re putting a first text together...

    • Don’t dive straight into asking for the date, unless you

    already discussed this when you met (& she seemedseriously keen). Your first mission is always just to get a

    response!

    • Write a decent length of text. Very short texts make it hard

    for her to respond to you.

    •  Try to include some details from the original interaction:

    this will help her to remember why you clicked.

    • Be specific. Asking vague ‘what have you been up to?’

    style questions are, again, very tricky for her to respond

    to. Instead make a specific assumption about what she’sdoing/ how she’s feeling.

    • Don’t make it all about one specific question: if she doesn’t

    respond to a texts that ends with a very direct question

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    27/99

    then it comes across like she’s ignored you. Even if this is

    the case, you don’t want it to appear as such.

    listened to her.

    5 WAYS TO...SAY HELLO

    What to say, what to say.

     The first text (like so many first’s) is always the worst: the trickiest to

    write. However, there are five styles of first text that you can play around

    with and adapt to give you the best chance of her saying hello back.

    1. It was ‘random’ how you met, wasn’t it?

    So you thought about how to approach the girl you were interested

    in for about five minutes, moved into the right position, began to walk

    forward three times (psyched yourself out twice) then eventually said ‘Hi’

    using a line you’d heard.

    Unsurprisingly going out ‘on the pull’ and approaching lots of women;

    is not the ‘romantic dream’ a girl will want to believe is the reason you

    approached her. So making a comment about the serendipitous nature

    of how you met is usually a good idea. Though a text like the one below

    will work uncannily well when sent out on mass to multiple women (not

    that I’d advocate such a thing . . .):

    Random meeting you like that . . . or have you always ignored your

     parents’ warnings about talking to strangers? ;) AIDEN x 

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    33/99

    2. It’s all about her

    People tend to have a relatively sick fascination with their own lives:

    so focusing your first text around her makes good sense. Tease her abouther life, or ask her a question that is pertinent to what you knew she was

    going to spend the rest of the day, or night, doing.

     Think you don’t know anything about her? Well I’m sure you probably

    know her name and where she’s from (if you don’t use a generic text like

    the one above). A little imagination involving national stereotypes canleave you with a text that is teasing and relevant:

    Hey NEW YORK LISA, so how has your first month in London been?

    Hope you haven’t had to ‘cut a bitch’ (or whatever you get up to in

    BROOKLYN) yet ;) RICH x 

    3. Remind her

    A great way to bring back that ‘high point’ of when you got her

    number is to remind her of what you talked about at the time you met.

     The good news is this doesn’t have to be a witty comment. You canliterally list the conversational ‘hooks’ in a fun format like the one below:

    You + crazy DANCE MOVES + too much TEQUILA = a really bad

    headache today. You better be in pain too over there . . . RALPH x 

    Just make sure at the end you use that magic word ‘you’ to turn thecomment back towards the girl you’re texting (‘You better be in pain too

    over there . . . ‘) so she knows that she has something to respond to and

    comment on.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    34/99

    4. A well timed assumption

    Instead of asking a girl ‘What are you up to?’, it’s usually tons more

    effective to imagine what she’s doing. That’s right, take a guess. This worksso much better than a direct question, because whilst a direct question

    may make her feel put on the spot (and seriously ding your value if she

    doesn’t respond) an assumption will prompt her to correct you, or explain

    what she’s doing: because you’re making a comment about her life . . . .

    which is the one thing people tend to reliably be interested in, and feel

    the need to respond to.

    Happy MONDAY . . . meeting you on SATURDAY night was cool. Are

     you bored at your desk now or having way more fun than me? PETE x 

    You may also want to think about the timing of your text.

    If you meet on Saturday night then when she’s bored at her desk

    on a Monday morning can be a great time to send the message that

    brings back all of those positive memories of when you met. (However,

    if she’s the kind of girl that likes to be chained to her desk—in a purely

    workaholic sense—then Sunday would be better timing to engage her.)

    5. Be gentle with her

     Teasing is awesome: and absolutely fundamental in making sure that

    you don’t wind up friend zoned. That said, tease too hard on a number

    that isn’t that hot and she’ll could think ‘what an idiot’ and ignore you. So

    use texts like:

    So have you googled me yet? ;)

    Sparingly on numbers that are very solid: or if you happen to have

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    35/99

    got a LOT of numbers and want to work out which girls are seriously keen

    on you. A great time to use a tease would be if the girl has come onto you

    strongly/ contacted you. Here you can pretend that she’s the one who is

    pursuing you:

    I went to bed at 5am last night . . . I remember meeting a crazy girl

    at about midnight. Please explain (no rude words) what happened in

    between . . . CHRIS x 

    If not incorporate teasing after you’ve already got a good response.

    RULES OF IRRESISTIBLE

    TEXTS

    Workshop 1. Ice Breakers Online

     Thanks to the infinite amount of ways technology has found us to

    say ‘hi’ you may not have got a girl’s number: you could have got her

    email or her Facebook name. It is also a valid form of staying in contact tostate that you would like (say “Let’s me take your number,” not “Can I have

    your number”) if she feels uncomfortable giving you her number.

    So how do you say hi through other forms of media?

    Facebook:

    1. Send a message to incentivise your add: When it comes to adding

    girl’s on Facebook a personal message does help. She’ll feel more at ease,

    and that it’s more personal. Also if you add a girl and don’t send her an

    ice breaker message what do you think the chances are of her taking the

    initiative to accept you?

    2. If you’re adding tons of girls: delete the update from your wall.

    Appear like a player and she won’t think ‘wow he’s so in demand’; she’ll

    be suspicious.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    37/99

    3. Avoid being generic: Just like a text message personalise and don’t

     just over validate her with a generic comment about her looks. So ditch

    the ‘hey cutie, I love your smile in your profile pic’ and rapidly replace with

    a version of the text templates

    A template for an ice breaker Facebook you could use is:

    Hey Sarah

    Interesting meeting you last night—congrats for managing tohold it together on the dance floor.

    Though I’ve just seen you like Akon . . . explain? I expected you to

    be more of a rock chick. Let’s catch up sometime Eric 

    Email:

    1. If this is a vaguely business contact that you obtained ‘indirectly’

    on the grounds of ‘networking’ then you need to make that the main

    premise of the email. Launch into lots of social chit chat and you will

    appear like you’ve mislead her. Instead keep it business orientated at the

    beginning and end—with just a short social anecdote in between.

    Hey Kat 

    Here is the link to the event I mentioned:

     Just got back from a long jog—definitely trying to fit too muchinto a Monday. How’s your project going? Did you beat your deadlines

    or are you joining me in being chronically behind? 

    Regards, Rupert 

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    38/99

    2. Keep it short: yes emails allow you to write at length—don’t. Keep

    it short and to the point. Anything too long—or several emails in a row

    unanswered would be an over investment.

    3. Don’t do a Facebook add: you have her email—ergo it’s very

    tempting to add her on Facebook, linked in, Twitter etc or other social

    media. However, if you’ve said you’ll email stick to this for now. If some

    serious banter ensures—or you meet in person a few times then an ‘add’

    or a ‘follow’ will seem a lot more ‘friend’ than ‘fan’.

    IRRESISTIBLE TEXTS:

    CONNECTING TEXTS

    Intro to Connecting Texts

    Imagine this: you met a cute girl in a club on Saturday night, after

    you swapped some texts Sunday you arranged a date . . . two weeks from

    now (drat that work conference/ essay deadline/ her hectic social life). This is great but by the time two weeks has passed, she may not feel up

    for the date. She’ll flake.

    Why? Remember when you made that commitment to go to a

    friend’s birthday way ahead of time? When you agreed to it you were

    pretty convinced that you were going to go? Then the day comes around,you haven’t caught up with your friend in ages, you’ve got a busy week at

    work, you feel broke and you FLAKE.

    Exactly the same things may go through a girl’s mind in the run up

    to meeting you. If you got her number quickly, if she was uncertain to

    begin with, if it’s ages before you can meet again in person, you need tostay in touch. Use connecting texts to build that investment from her and

    make sure she feels more into you than ever by the time your date comes

    around.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    40/99

    When?

    You don’t want to overwhelm a girl by texting her every day: but you

    don’t want to leave her weeks at a time without hearing from you.

    Aim to have a quick text exchange maybe once every 3 days in-

    between when you set the date, and when you eventually get to hook up.

    Keep these exchanges quite brief: you don’t want to destroy the

    mystery, you just want to keep her interested enough so that she doesn’tflake on your date.

    Rules of Text Thumb

     These texts should give value: they should make her smile, be

    conversational and easier to respond to.

     The shorter and more direct they are the higher risk they become. ‘So

    . . . ‘ text to the right girl, who’s into you, will push her to write something

    witty; a girl that isn’t biting quite so hard will ignore you.

    Use games, MMS and curiosity to prompt a response.

    Don’t over invest: keep your conversations short, try to end the

    text conversation first and don’t keep pushing if she’s giving you low

    investment responses. Instead of trying to keep her talking, give her

    some space to miss you.

    No response?

     These texts should be generally low investment i.e. It shouldn’t

    matter too much if you send one with no response. A couple in a row

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    41/99

    unanswered though could spell trouble. Give her a few days to respond

    and if you don’t hear anything, pick up the phone and try to build her

    interest levels the old fashioned way—by having a conversation.

    1. So . . . .

    A high risk prompt if you want her to take the initiative.

    2. Time to get to know you better—let’s play five questions. Just

    keep yours clean ;)

    Use some reverse psychology to get her flirting with you.

    3. Knock Knock

    Ivan.

    Ivan to stop texting and see you in person . . .

    Use a classic corny joke to get her responding.

    4. So I’ve had a day involving breaking hearts, near death

    experiences and ice cream . . . can you top that?

    Suggest your life is awesome and challenge her to compete with it.

    5. I’m sure you told me about something you were doing today

    that was important to you. Naturally I’ve forgotten all about

    what it is—but I have remembered to ask about it?

    You can make this up—and come across like a jerk—but if your

    relationship is playful it could still work!

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    42/99

    6. Aren’t you going to tell me off?

     Twig her curiosity to get her drawn into responding.

    7. Monday mornings suck don’t they?

     Talk about a feeling everyone shares to engage her.

    ‘corrupt corporations’, ‘translate ‘PIXIE’ into Cornish’. You?

    A fun exercise to play with a girl and suggest a little about what

    9. Just stocked up on GINGER BEER, PRETZELS & ELASTIC BANDS

    i.e. I’m working hard. What are your 3 desert island items?

    Use classic scenario questions to get a well thought out

    response.

    10. It’s going to be a long day (it’s tough being so important ;) . . .

    are you going to make me envious by doing something morefun?

    Prompt her to boast to you, then tease her about what she says.

    11. Isn’t this supposed to be NATIONAL CAKE DAY? Are you

    celebrating yet? X

    Every week there’s a national holiday of some kind – abuse

    this fact.

    watching WIFE SWAP. Question is, are you also psychic?

    Be cocky by assuming what she’s doing, and be prepared to be

    corrected!

    Use the time of year to send an unconventional seasonal

    message.

    17. I’ve decided we need to quit our jobs and go on holiday to

    5 WAYS TO . . . KEEP IT

    GOING

    If your date is more than a few days away: or if you’re in the early

    stages of dating, you’re going to need/ want to occasionally get in touch

    with the girl.

    You need to strike the balance of communication just right in orderto maintain attraction but not overwhelm her.

     Texting every day would be way too much: texting once a week

    probably too little to maintain enough interest on her part to see you for

    another date.

    So keep the text ratio generally 1:1: breaking this only if you’ve

    had a few days of space in between your texts and she’s still replying

    consistently.

    Now that I’ve banged on about how often to text a girl; here are a

    few neat pointers about how you can keep the interaction going.

    1. Give them something to do:

    I once knew a guy who kept a colouring book and crayons on his

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    47/99

    coffee table for ‘lady friends’ to play with when they came over. Now it’s

    not that women have the brain power of pre-schoolers but what they

    do like is an activity that is focused on them and that is fun. Creating

    texts that involve MMS, or are formatted in an original way to give a girlsomething to ‘fill in’ should prompt a response. Just make sure you then

    move on from the raw data to something more conversational:

    You: Weekend score sheet: please complete. Number of drunken

    adventures . . . Friends that made you laugh . . . Hours taken out to chill

    out . . .

    Her: Number of drunken adventures 0 Friends that made you

    laugh 3 Hours taken out to chill out 0

    You: Well glad to hear a girl has great friends: but other scores

    are shameful! We’ve got to change that. Starting with the drunkenadventures: mojitos or daiquiri? 

    And hopefully now you’re setting up an impromptu date.

    2. Play a game:

    Game playing, and having fun are key to building smiles, positive

    associations and investment from the girl you’re texting. Try re-inventing

    ‘old school’ games for text to have a fun little exchange. Just remember

    not to drag it out for too long: a couple of texts back and forth then

    arrange another time to meet in person or speak over the phone:

    I’m bored—let’s play a game. I spy, with my little eye, something

    beginning with B . . .

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    48/99

    3. Say what you see:

    Current affairs, the weather, the funny incident that happened to you

    in the street today are all great fodder for a reason to contact. Bring upsomething topical: or suggest what she should be doing in the sunshine

    as a means to stay in touch, whilst keeping it relevant.

    Also try to be even smarter and make the text focused on her by

    using the magic word, ‘you’. This usually adds a more teasing element

    to a text. Used like the example below it also suggests that you havestandards for the people entering your life . . . and that you won’t settle

    for anything less. This is an important process (that I’ll discuss more in the

    next section) also known as ‘qualification’:

    Yikes have you seen the news today? I won’t be impressed if you’re

    not a current affairs kind of girl ;)

    4. Your life is AWESOME:

    Knowing your own self worth is vital in having success in every

    aspect of your life. Before I go on a rant about the importance of knowing

    how great you are though: I just want to focus on how this relates toIrresistible Texts.

    If you suggest—through your texts—that you’re the kind of guy that

    has a fun, exciting, unusual life you are selling your lifestyle to her. If you

    feel you have a great life, and project that, she will want in. So keep your

    text filled with unique details to comment on, like this one:

    My three most recent googles: ‘Dirty knock, knock jokes’, ‘corrupt

    corporations’, ‘translate ‘PIXIE’ into Cornish’. You? 

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    49/99

    5. Make them curious . . .

    If you think the girl you’re texting is into you then you can drive

    her insane (with desire of course) by pushing the responsibility forconversation on her. Say you’ve been doing a great job of ‘playing it cool’,

    and the girl you’re texting always replies with lightening speed i.e. the

    number is very hot. Then use a generous amount of . . . to get them to

    fill the blanks, and keep investing: or say something that will engage

    their curiosity. A text like the one below after a period of giving the girl

    you’re dating space is likely to make her: a. Really anxious b. Have a strongemotional reaction that makes her even more invested in the outcome of

    your relationship c. Text you back.

     Aren’t you going to tell me off?

    where the fun really begins.

    OK so when and how do you go for the date?

    Let’s deal with the ‘when’ first and, later on, we’ll deal with ‘how’.

    Just like interactions during real life the timing of when you ‘escalate’is important. Imagine you’ve just sat down with some girls in a bar. How

    weird would it be for the first thing you say to be asking the girl out on

    the date? She hasn’t done anything yet to prove her value to you, except

    from being relatively attractive. And, trust me, there are a lot of relatively

    attractive girls out there. Asking for a date at this stage lowers your value,

    and is an over investment. Similarly the first text you send (unless you’vealready escalated sufficiently during the initial interaction) won’t go right

    in for the date.

    But do you know what also kills attraction? Not escalating in time. If

    51/99

    you sit there talking pleasantly to a girl without at any stage upping your

    kino, going for a close or just talking more sexually, you’re going to be

    friend zoned.

     The same goes for texts.

    Whilst you probably don’t want to go for the date straight away,

    you’ve got to at some stage, or she will stop replying. Why? Because she

    doesn’t know where the interaction is going, and whilst she may welcome

    you as a friend into her life, people will generally invest much more inromantic rather than platonic connections.

    So when is the right time to go for the date?

    Look at the regularity of texts: with my girlfriends I won’t worry

    about leaving it a while until I get back to them (they’re not goinganywhere right?) but I will respond to guys I’m interested in. So if you’re

    phone is exploding with texts that’s a good sign. She may be ‘playing it

    cool’, and taking her time to respond: but as long as when the response

    comes she:

    - Asks about you

    - Volunteers details of her life that you didn’t ask for

    - Teases or flirts with you

     Then she’s probably going to be keen to meet in person.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    52/99

    Is she hitting on you? Counter intuitively it is often the less direct

    sexual references that are the most important. If she’s putting loads of

    kisses and calling you affectionate names (like babe, honey or anything

    else a little sickening!) you may be teetering on the friend zone. Girlswill often be a little bit more coy with guys they’re really into. Too much

    affection early on suggests that she is very comfortable with you and may

     just see you as a friend. If the possibility for sex is there, she’ll reference it

    but in a much more subtle way. If sex is a possibility she won’t want to

    over commit herself by making it explicit that it’s going to happen.

    Instead she’s more likely to sexually qualify herself to you. Thiscould be:

    1. By drawing attention to her physical fitness/ prowess:  Any

    continual references to how she is a gym bunny, just getting into running

    or has always done yoga because she is flexible could well mean, ‘I’m

    physically fit and great in bed’. Simple as that.

    2. By drawing attention to how she is becoming more attractive:

     This could be anything from telling you about a new pair of heels/

    manicure she has got (she expects you to be excited and aroused at the

    prospect of her wearing them).

    3.  By telling you she isn’t ‘sexy’ things that qualify herself as

    a girlfriend to you: Like that she’s a great cook/ loves dancing/ loves

    football. These things are all seeking your approval and implying that

    she’d be a great person to have in your life.

    4. Has there been a change in her texting habits?: If she hassuddenly started replying a lot faster, more frequently, or has initiated

    a text conversation with you it implies that she wants a date. Maybe

    the other guys she was dating is no longer in the running. A change in

    her texting habits could well mean that there has been a change in her

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    53/99

    personal logistics: she may have broken up with a boyfriend, decided to

    move on from another man she was interested in, or just decided life’s

    too short and that she wants to have some fun!

     These signals that I’ve spoken about aren’t a hard and fast rule that

    now is a good time to go for a date: but they are a decent guideline for

    when is a good time to try.

    IRRESISTIBLE TEXTS: DATE

    TEXTS

    An Introduction to Date texts

    Yup the moment has arrived: a few texts have been swapped, it

    seems like it’s going well and you want to ask her out on a DATE.

     That said, you don’t want to ever seem like it’s all about her. Your text

    should express something that you want to do, be relatively direct and be

     just unique enough to make her smile.

    When?

    In short, as soon as you get an invested response from a girl. For

    more information about this, scroll back a page and read my ‘signs she’s

    ready for a date’ section.

    A general guideline though would be to ask for the date sooner rather

    than later. Text conversations that run on and on will leave her wonderingwhat your game plan is: and kill the excitement of the interaction.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    55/99

    Rules of Text Thumb

    • Go for it! If she gives you a ‘no’ (or a ‘maybe’ which is as good as

    a ‘no’) without offering any other date suggestions, at least youknow where you stand and what you have to work with.

    • Be direct and use strong language that suggests the date is

    already on.

    •  Try to ‘paint a picture’ of the date that gives her a clear idea ofwhat she’s signing up to.

    • Make the date relevant to something you’ve discussed, or a

    challenge to her, and you may up your chances of receiving a

    positive response.

     That said don’t arrange a date around her by asking her where she

    wants to go, what she wants to do, when she’s free etc. Be decisive and

    choose options that work for you.

    If the number was/ is pretty cold then she is more likely to agree to

    a low investment date.

    No response?

    Or should I say, not the response you want? If she makes an excuse

    as to why she can’t meet, and doesn’t offer a solution herself (like another

    time you can link up) then accept that she means won’t. Trying to solvethe logistics will only lower your value. Instead match her investment.

    Seem nonchalant about her not being able to meet:

    ‘ok cool no problem x’

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    56/99

    ‘that’s cool, Friday was always going to be hectic for me too x’.

     Then give her a few days space, before trying to re-contact her. If

    she’s flaked on you, or turned you down numerous times, turn to PingGame to learn about how increasing space, can help to solve this.

    If you get no response at all don’t react in an emotional or aggressive

    way: in fact play it cool, don’t react at all and turn to Ping Game.

    1. Wednesday night. Dinner. Be early ;) 

     Take a risk by being direct and demanding.

    2. Generic compliments, playful teases and emoticons aside—

    drink Wednesday? 

    Show that you don’t want your relationship just to exist via text.

    3. a.) You annoy me b.) Make that infuriate c.) Coffee Friday? 

    End some banter with a date.

    4. Can’t think of a good reason to go out for a celebratory

    drink . . . but I’m sure it’s someone’s birthday, somewhere

    right now so we should toast to that x 

    You don’t need a good excuse to ask her out for a drink.

    5. Surely a bad day today for any adventurous outdoor dates—so

    how about I loan you a towel whilst I make us hot chocolate? 

    Use the environment to tailor your date suggestion.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    57/99

    6. How about we do a bake off this weekend? You’ll win, but

    I’ll enjoy feeding you cupcakes 

    Suggest fun and unusual activities to tempt her onto a date.

    7. Let’s buy souvenir t-shirts and spend a weekend

    sightseeing . . . tourist style 

    Show your creative side with an inventive date.

    8. That just makes me think of ASIAN FOOD . . . Looks like we’ll

    have to get that this weekend to satisfy my craving

    Use your conversation to jump to asking for a date.

    9. Hands tired . . . fingers aching . . . all this texting is givingme RSI. Let’s carry this conversation on in person—after

    work good for you? 

    Get off the phone—and meet in person!

    10. I still want to talk fashion, eat Italian and drink cocktails . . .preferably this Thursday at the MANDARIN ORIENTAL. 

    Give a detailed picture of what she can expect from the date.

    11. Koen dé-Gwener? Asked you out in Cornish . . . Points for

    originality? 

    Use humour to prompt a positive, if not sexy, response.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    58/99

    12. It’s Friday . . . good enough excuse to sling back one too

    many D&S COCKTAILS I think. Meet me at BAR around 7? 

    Be direct, yet specific enough to create an image of the date.

    13. Welcome to the tradition of Thirsty Thursdays. I think you

    can handle a STRAWBERRY CHEESECAKE SHOT on a school

    night . . . so are you game to join us later?  

    Make up a day of the week that demands drinking to instigate agroup meet up.

    14. Let’s link up this weekend. Picnic for good weather, indoors-

    nic if not x

    Assume she’s going to agree to the date.

    15. Is it bad to admit I’m bored at my desk? How about we rename

    today Madness Mondays and make like it’s Friday night?

     Tempt her to break the rules with a high risk spontaneous date.

    16. You’re ridiculously busy. I’m ridiculously busy. Let’s multi-

    task and do a study date. Just promise not to distract me x 

    Both busy? Do an ‘errand date’.

    17. Ok cool. Let’s meet in person to discuss, Wednesday orThursday night best for you? 

    Play it cool & professional—but only give her options that

    involve meeting you.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    59/99

    18. We should do ICE SKATING one day, good for your

    POSTURE, don’t you know?

    Suggest a date that could help her achieve something.

    19. Texting is ok but how about we upgrade each other to face

    time? Coffee Wednesday? 

    She doesn’t ‘upgrade’ you, you ‘upgrade’ her.

    20. We always seem to miss each other. I want to change that.

    How about we kick start with coffee next week? 

     Try softening a higher risk direct question with a low

    investment date.

    21. Just watched the THIRTEEN SAMURAI and find myself in the

    mood for JAPANESE FOOD. A little wrong I know, but you

    better not say no to SUSHI 

    Suggest a date because something ‘just happened’ to make you

    think to do it.

    22. Ever heard of a backwards dinner?

    We kick start with ICE CREAM, and wind up doing CANAPES

    at midnight. Plan is best executed on Friday night—does

    that work ok for you?

    Create mystery with a question: then follow it up with a specific

    date idea. Best used on later dates.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    60/99

    23. What are you drinking right now? I’d like to buy you

    another one . . . 

    Interrupt her night out with a risky, but sexy, reminder of you.

    24. Finding a time we can both meet = nightmare. Latte

    Monday, deal or no deal?

    Always try to match her interest levels in going for a date.

    25. *attach image* do you know what this is?

    Symbolic representation of our date Monday . . . see you at

    7? X

    5 WAYS TO . . . CREATE MORE

    DESIRE FOR DAY TWOS

    Now that you’ve got her to respond to your first texts and she’s given

    you great signs of interest here are five ways you can go about making

    the date happen.

    Never sound apologetic: Firstly if you want to get a good responseyou want to avoid texts that appear needy, unconfident and uncertain.

    You want to avoid seeming uncertain of whether the date is going

    to happen with texts like these:

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    62/99

     This text makes it seem like you’re working around her and that she’s

    running the show! At this stage it shouldn’t be about whether she’s got

    time to see you: it’s about you wanting to see her and having a clear goal

    of getting her on a date.

    So don’t worry about whether she’s free or not. If she has enough

    desire for you she will make the logistics work: even if she can’t make the

    first time you offer, she will come back to you with a better suggestion

    and a date/ time that could work.

    By using words like ‘maybe’ and asking her what she’s up to, you

    lose value, and fail to exhibit the sexually aggressive, masculine, leader

    qualities that girls find so sexy.

    Be Specific: Also always avoid sending texts like:

    “What are you up to this weekend?” 

    It is way too vague. Send a girl an unspecific date suggestion and

    she will usually give you an unspecific answer like ‘maybe’; or she will

    make up some excuse as to why she may be able to make it, but may

    have to cancel or let you know. This is her hedging her bets because sheis uncertain what she is signing up to if she says that she doesn’t have any

    plans. If she says she’s free you could suggest a date she hates the idea of

    and then she’ll have to be rude and decline. Girls usually like to be polite

    so they won’t want to leave themselves exposed to a potentially awkward

    social situation. Instead give her a clear idea of what the date will involve.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    63/99

    Be Certain: So I want you to start writing texts that clearly showwhat the date will involve, and seem really confident that she’s going to

    want to go on the date. To do this use imperative, commanding, powerful

    language to imply that it’s on. Don’t be afraid to state what you want.

    In fact using phrases like ‘I want’ and ‘let’s’ show those sexy, masculine,

    leadership qualities.

    Make Decisions: You also want to lead and always make decisions

    where possible. Decide the date location, day and time. Again you don’t

    want to pussy foot around her: you have a busy schedule and whilst it’s

    fine to compromise a bit, you want to be the man and take the initiative

    to take her somewhere you like. Don’t ask her for date suggestions at thisstage: it makes you seem weak, and maybe even inexperienced.

    Tip: make your texts more exciting is to use exciting vocabulary when

    talking about your date. Skip words like ‘nice’ when describing your experience,

    and date suggestions. Instead go for awesome, intriguing, amazing etc. This

    is why the rst text will get a better response than the second:

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    64/99

     

    Make it easy for her to commit: A trip to Paris may sound great

    on paper, but she won’t want to make such a big investment of her time

    or energy just yet. You also shouldn’t give her that much value. Insteadgo for a date that is low investment, and easy to commit to. A quick

    drink after work, or a coffee, is a fine starting point. This way you won’t

    be competing with her BFFs for her weekend time and if the date sucks

    you can both bail early! Remember that you can always grab dinner

    afterwards if the date really is going well. But it will be easier to ‘up sell’

    her when she’s already on the date rather than beforehand; especially ifshe seems uncertain to begin with.

     And if she is uncertain, if she does flake, if the number goes cold,

    don’t worry! We’ll be looking at Ping texts soon enough and it is better

    that you GO FOR IT; then live wondering ‘what if?’

    RULES OF IRRESISTIBLE

    TEXTS

    Workshop 3. What next..? 

     The date has occurred . . . and suddenly you realize that now you

    have to arrange another one. This is met with mixed feelings in your gut:

    part ‘get in’, part ‘not all that again’.

    I can save you some stress here with a simple list of dos and don’ts

    post date.

    Don’t send her a gushing post date message. If she sends you a

    sweet text by all means respond: but don’t come on too strong with a, ‘itwas so great to meet you’ kind of message. Girls like to chase too . . .

    Do drop her a line the next day. Make this on a similar line to your

    first text: avoid being too friendly, concerned if she got home ok etc.

    Instead say something a little teasing: if she was a little tipsy, or you had

    fits of laughter over something, bring that back up in your message.

    Don’t ask for another date straight away.Going straight for organising

    another date feels too full on. Play it cooler and wait until she is texting you

    back (or even better initiating the conversation) before you ask for date two.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    66/99

    Do be direct when you ask for day two: remember you are a man:

    a real ‘hunter gatherer’, it is cool for you to state what you want. So once

    the texts have started again, keep it brief and just state, ‘Drinks with you

    were fun: let’s do more laughter over cocktails next week. Tuesday goodfor you?’

    Do try a two stage set up if you’re uncertain: if you’re really not

    sure how well it went, or how she feels: use the word ‘sometime’ or ‘one

    day’ to suggest a date. Then if she seems into your date suggestion tie

    it down to a day/ time. This is a great way of feeling her out on a datewithout losing too much value if she doesn’t go for it. Your interaction

    may go a little like this:

    You: So did you spend all Sunday watching re-runs of Glee? I’m

    unconvinced but you can drag me to a dance class some time

    Her: Shut up! Glee is great and I love dancing—you know it’s fun! 

    You: Ok then Salsa class, Holborn, Wednesday—but we’re getting

    a strong drink after you put me through this ;)

    See it was all her idea really!

    Don’t jump to negative conclusions: If you’re starting to panic

    because she hasn’t got back to your message asap, she mentions how

    she’s going on a night out with friends, or brings up a boy’s name. Please

    stop yourself. You’ve known this girl for a matter of hours: don’t care too

    much and have faith that she is into you.

    Do use teasing to stage another date: If your date was noticeably

    clumsy/ tipsy/ or really giggled when you mentioned something use this

    ‘tease’ to angle for another date:

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    67/99

    You: Hey Clumsy girl—have you spilt any drinks today? Worrying

    over here that I can’t take you anywhere . . .

    Her: Hey! I’m very well mannered I’ll have you know, I only spilt alittle of my wine! 

    You: Ok well for your next challenge we can do high tea somewhere:

    that will be the acid test of whether you have any manners! 

    Don’t suggest a date that’s too high investment: sure your datemight wind up you eating dinner, hitting two bars, tumbling into a taxi

    and winding up having crazy sex at your apartment. But you can’t let on

    that’s the plan! Ask her for just the dinner or just the drink . . . then leave

    the rest of your evening free.

    Do up-sell: she may only feel comfortable agreeing to a drink far inadvance. However, on the night—if it’s all going well—it’s going to be

    much easier to extend the date. So even if you’re just meeting for another

    ‘quick after work drink’; have a plan in mind of another bar or two you

    could take her to . . . preferably on route back to your apartment.

    Don’t change your texting style: Keep it simple and unreactiveuntil you’re ‘official’ i.e. Even if she shoves a ton of xxxx at the end of her

    message don’t feel you need to reciprocate. Instead keep it cool until you

    know where you both stand.

    IRRESISTIBLE TEXTS:

    TEASING TEXTS

    An Introduction to Teasing Texts

    It is very important, in your texts and interactions generally, that you

    do not pander to a woman. Say the words you think she wants to hear,

    instead of your true opinion, and she’ll lose respect for you.

    Instead set challenges for a woman, or tease her, to create that spark

    of attraction where she feels she hasn’t quite got your affections yet.

     Teasing texts can be used instead of connecting texts; and if she’s

    running late, or if you disapprove of something she’s done, they’re alsouseful in establishing your personal boundaries in a fun and light hearted

    way.

    When?

    In-between dates, in place of connecting texts, when she pops intoyour mind, when you’re a little annoyed at something she’s done, when

    you want to ping her after a few days of no contact. The possibilities are

    endless!

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    69/99

    Rules of Text Thumb

    • Take a risk and tease. It’s better to overstep the mark and have

    to recover from that, rather than never doing any teasing and beingthoroughly friend zoned.

    • Sometimes if she is trying to impress you they can be a useful alternative

    to over complimenting her. Don’t let a girl get complacent in your affections.

    • Teases are one way that a woman’s mind gets red up: teasing canmake her feel a stronger attraction to you, so use teases pre/post date.

    • The basic rule of teasing texts? You are the man, and you are in control.

    No response?

    Ok she’s either: a. Not that into you and can’t be bothered to

    respond. If this is the case you’re down to ping game and phone calls.

    b. You’ve teased her too hard—if this is the case, tease her about this

    fact with a ‘virtual hug’ style text. c. She doesn’t know how to respond;

    if she has just missed one text, or if there is a language barrier, then this

    might be the case. Stick to clearer texts to reinitiate contact next time.

    1. So where are you taking me for our next hot date? ;)

    Use role reversals to tease her.

     2. I hate you . . . especially the kissing bit  

     Tell her that you hate something you actually love about her.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    70/99

    3. Was you texting me last night your equivalent of a love poem?  

     Tease her for showing interest in you.

    4. What’s this *attach image**sound of buzzer* nope . . . guess

    again . . . 

    Use MMS to create guessing games.

    5. Have I been too mean? If so, is your not replying a sign youwant a virtual hug?  

     Teased too hard? Then recover using this message.

    6. You do know that you’re going to lose this argument right  

     Tease her into arguing harder, and investing more.

    7. Did I mention that I love how you keep saying ‘no’?  

    Be blasé and persistent in the face of rejection

    8. Don’t think I should believe girls who ALWAYS GO TO TIGER

    TIGER 

    Say you disbelieve something she said.

    9. Really? You’re not just fibbing to impress me ;) 

    Doubt the truth of what she says to get her to justify herself.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    71/99

    10. *attach picture* yes I am boasting now  

    Use MMS to suggest how cool your life is, just don’t try too

    hard!

    11. You better not be EATING PIZZA AT MIDNIGHT again . . . 

    Use your knowledge of her idiosyncratic habits to tease her.

    12. Now you do know I only date ladies . . . 

     Teasingly tell her what kind of girls you date.

    13. I think that qualifies as bad behaviour on your part  

    Call her out jokingly anytime she behaves poorly.

    14. You do know I think punctuality is the sexiest quality a girl

    can have ;) 

    If she’s running late . . .

    15. Running late are we? *makes mental note to slap MIA’s wrist*

    Use her being late as an excuse to touch her.

    16. You’re losing brownie points very rapidly over here 

    Have a brownie points system: which can be won or lost.

  • 8/17/2019 Irresistible Texts

    72/99

    17. So I lost a brownie point or two with you yesterday. You can

    only stay mad at me if you assume I don’t have a good way of

    making it up to you. 

     Tempt her back into contact.

    18. Satisfied yet? Greedy . . . .

    Make her out to be demanding.

    19. I would say touché but let’s face it . . . you like the bickering 

     Tease her about how much she enjoys arguing with you.

     20. Still angry? *attach cute picture*

    Still angry? *attach cute picture*  

    Persist in ‘winning her back’ until you make her smile.

     21. Banning you from saying you’re a. Tired b. Stressed c. Sad.

    Feeling that way is strictly disallowed whilst we know eachother x  

    Suggest that you want to make her happy: but in a

    commanding, non-needy way!

     22. So how are you settling in NEW YORK girl? Had to CUT ABITCH yet? ;)

    make a point?  

    Find her attempts at being mean to you funny.

     24. You know I only accept xxx in XXX form?  

     Tease her about sex, rather than stating it directly.

    5 WAYS TO . . . EFFECTIVELY

    TEASE A GIRL

    Don’t be afraid to tease a girl.

    Whether you want to challenge a girl on her beliefs, show that you

    have boundaries, or just make her laugh: teasing is a key way you shift

    the interaction from being friendly to having sexual energy.

    Don’t tease at all, make her feel comfortable and you will wind up

    being ‘just friends.’ Sure you need to make a woman feel a degree of

    comfort in your company: but what amazingly passionate relationships

    do you know where both the guy and the girl were super relaxed with

    one another? Exactly.

    1. Use old school insults:

    Girls love to be teased. You don’t want to say anything ‘nasty’ but you

    can use ‘old school’ teases, nicknames and insults to create an element

    of fun. Think of it as a textual version of push-pull: if all your texts are toosoppy this does nothing to create attraction. In fact some people really

    enjoy being treated mean . . . and kept keen:

    Loser ;)

    2. Move her through emotions:

    You’re worried if you send that message that you’ll over step the

    mark? Well, think of the tease as your ‘push’ then if she seems upset(which she shouldn’t be: being called a ‘loser’ is playful) then you can ‘pull’

    her back in by teasing texts designed to make her smile.

    Moving women through a range of emotions is good: no one’s

    heart ever beat faster over a guy that just made them feel ‘meh’. Real

    romance involves a good smattering of heart ache, highs and lows: sostart incorporating this into your text interactions.

    If you over step the mark use a cute or funny picture you think she’d

    be into (a pair of ‘hugging’ pugs works great on me) to keep prompting

    her to smile:

    Still angry? *attach cute picture*

    Still angry? *attach cute picture*

    3. Set boundaries

     Teases can have a serious function too. If a girl has done something

    to tick you off; or that you would consider being unacceptable behaviour

    you don’t want to overreact. Especially if it’s a first time offence. This will

    only serve to make you seem emotionally volatile; and that you care a lot

    more about her, than she does about you.

    Instead you can use a tease to suggest what qualities you’re looking

    for, and what behaviour you want . . . without coming across like a jerk:

    Y ou do know I think punctuality is the sexiest quality a girl can have ;)

    4. Express disbelief 

    Super simple tease: choose to disbelieve something she says. Pretty

    women are used to having guys blindly agreeing with a lot of what they

    say. A really simple way to show that you’re ‘not like the other guys’ is bygiving an unexpected answer to something that she’s said.

    Instead of commenting ‘oh wow’ to her telling you that she’s actually

    a dancer in her spare time: saying you’re not sure you believe her& that she

    looked pretty clumsy to you . . . is going to be a much less expected response.

    And remember as soon as she starts explaining herself to you—

    you’re already in a position of strength:

    I just don’t think I should believe girls who ALWAYS GO TO TIGER

    TIGER BAR

    5. She IS into you

    An oldie but a goodie in terms of how you should choose to interpret

    a situation (because you always have a choice in this).

    Choosing to interpret everything as a sign that a girl is super intoyou can be a really fun idea. By being nonchalant in the face of any bitchy

    behaviour, and gently teasing her attempts to tease you, or be mean; is a

    great way of saying ‘do your best, I’m self assured enough to take it.’

    Show a girl has hurt your feelings and you appear weak. Instead use

    a combination of teasing her and giving her space to show where yourboundaries lie. Smile calmly when under pressure and know that you can

    handle whatever she throws at you:

    I think it’s cute when you ignore me . . . is someone trying to make

    a point?

    RULES OF IRRESISTIBLE

    TEXTS

    Workshop 4. Turn your texts to sex 

     To kick start this workshop I’m going to tell you three very simple

    things that ‘sexy’ isn’t to girls:

    - It isn’t porno

    - It isn’t funny

    - It doesn’t show too much investment

    So when you’re trying to escalate via text I want you to apply three

    more golden rules:

    1. Don’t use explicit language (that’s anything pornographic etc)

    unless you’re already hooking up regularly/ you know she likes ‘dirty talk’.

    2. Don’t appear embarrassed or awkward about sex (girls *hate* that)

    by talking about it overly indirectly i.e. referencing her boobs as ‘melons’

    or anything that sounds like it could have come out of a Benny Hill sketch.

    3. Don’t try to text escalate before you’ve managed to meet up

    with her in a date context at least once. If you’ve got a number from a

    cold approach, chatted to the girl for five minutes, it is going to seem

    like way too much to start sexting. You may even wind up looking like aporn obsessed school boy. Remember to be non-needy and play it a little

    cooler. The only exception to this is if the relationship is long distance .

    . . in which case get the web cam out before you hit send on an overly

    provocative text.

    So how do you go about making things sexy?

    Well first of all—just like real life—there is a stage where being more

    sexual via text is the right thing to do.

    I’d break down how to play it into three stages of hotness:

    - Pre-first date

    - Post first date

    - Post sex

    Pre—first date

    Whilst you can introduce the topic of sex smoothly, relatively early

    on in a ‘real life’ conversation: I think it’s risky to do so via text. If you’ve

    only met her once and become too sexual too quickly it comes across

    that you’re ‘only after one thing’: which even if you are, you don’t want toappear desperate for sex.

    Instead try to inject flirtatious banter into the interaction by using

    teasing texts:

    You’ll have to try harder than that . . .

    By being direct when going for the date:

    Let’s grab some tapas on Friday after work 

    By being ok to occasionally challenge her:

    Not sure I do last minute changes of plan: so you’re going to have

    to meet me halfway as a peace offering

     These are not overtly sexual: but it sets the right tone: that you’re in

    control, that you’re not needy and that you are ok to go afte
