If you think text messages are just jokes and vents, you may be wrong! Sending text messages is a part of everyday life, including in a relationship. If you text the girl you like, she may give you a test to make sure you're serious. Fortunately, you may be able to recognize the test so that you can win over his heart. To help you out, we've put together a few ways to identify a test a woman is given via text message.
Step
Method 1 of 10: He never texts first
Step 1. This may mean that he wants to be pursued
Even if she really likes you, she may be waiting for you to text her first so she doesn't seem desperate. Don't take this as an insult and don't be discouraged. If you really like him, message him! Once your conversations flow, no one cares who started the conversation.
- It's great to feel wanted, and if he's waiting for you to start a conversation, it could be a sign that he wants you to "go after him."
- Don't think too hard. If you want to message him, just send it! Try sending something funny, like a meme or a photo of your cat to start a conversation.
Method 2 of 10: He doesn't reply to your messages right away
Step 1. A late response can be a sign that the woman is being pushy
Even if you often reply to messages quickly, don't get angry if the woman doesn't respond to your messages quickly. He may be selling high to see if you keep texting him. If he keeps responding, even if he doesn't reply right away, keep texting!
It could also mean that he is busy doing something and can't reply to your messages right away. If so, it is very important to refrain from appearing spoiled. Give the woman a chance to retaliate before making a decision
Method 3 out of 10: He sends a short reply or one word reply
Step 1. He may be testing your patience
If he replies to your messages as simply as possible, that doesn't necessarily mean he thinks you're annoying. Remember, it still responds to your messages even if it's not mandatory. In other words, he is still interested in exchanging messages with you. Stay relaxed and keep the conversation going. He may be checking how serious you are trying to win his heart.
If all the messages he sends are just one word, he may not be interested. However, if this happens only occasionally, it could be that he's busy replying to your messages or doesn't like texting
Method 4 out of 10: He's trying to make you feel guilty
Step 1. He may want to know if you will react negatively
He may be trying to make you feel guilty for responding late to his messages or saying that he's been waiting for your messages all day. Even if this is done to tease you, don't apologize. Apologizing for no apparent reason shows that you are willing to be abused. Just tell him that you're busy or that you can't check your phone too often.
For example, if he sends a message like “Where have you been? I've been waiting for your reply since earlier", say "I just got home from work, how are you today?" or say something naughty, like “How was it at school, can you hold it in?”
Method 5 out of 10: He asks about your ex
Step 1. Finding out about your past love relationships can show that a woman likes you
Most women are more curious about your ex than you are. Don't lie or dodge questions. He may be testing your honesty. He may also be looking into the reasons your relationship broke down in the past to judge you. Explain everything honestly and openly. Don't badmouth your ex to make yourself look better, as this will only make you sound arrogant.
For example, if he asks you something like "Why did you guys break up?" say something like "We didn't get along, but we're still friends to this day". Don't say "Oh, my ex is crazy."
Method 6 out of 10: He talks about his ex-girlfriend
Step 1. The woman may be testing your jealousy
Pay attention to what he has to say because it could be a sign of what he doesn't like in a relationship, especially if he talks negatively about his ex. Don't be angry or jealous. This may be a test of him – whether you are a possessive man or a jealous man. Understanding the past of the woman you like is natural so you can get to know her better.
For example, if he sends a message like "Yeah, I saw that movie with my ex," don't react negatively. However, continue your conversation as usual. For example, by saying “Oh, yeah? Was the movie good?”
Method 7 out of 10: He canceled the appointment on the spur of the moment
Step 1. This can be a test to determine whether you are committed to your future plans
It doesn't matter if he cancels an appointment to see you 5 minutes or 5 days in advance. When this happens, don't get angry or ask why. Stay calm and tell him that he can do it another time. After that, start setting up an appointment for another day to show that you're still interested in seeing him.
- If he texts you to cancel the appointment, say something like "Relax, we can meet another day."
- Remember, if he cancels his appointments multiple times, he may not really be interested in you. If he cancels appointments more than three times, you may have to back off.
Method 8 out of 10: He came to the same event as you
Step 1. This could be just a coincidence or the woman is testing your reaction
If you text him saying that you're going to a certain party or event, don't be suspicious if he says he's going to the same event. This is good news! Say that you are happy to meet him. You can even make plans to go out together before or after the event. Take this opportunity to show your interest.
For example, if the woman says she's coming to the same party, you might say something like “Wow, that's great! How about we eat pizza together before leaving?”
Method 9 out of 10: He says he will go himself to meet you somewhere
Step 1. He may tempt you to offer him a ride
Of course, he may want to drive himself when he sees you. However, there is nothing wrong with offering to pick him up. Even if the offer is turned down, he may be pleased with your initiative. If he accepted it, it would be so much better!
For example, if he says he wants to meet you at a certain restaurant, bar, or event, you can say something as simple as "Want me to pick you up?" This question sounds natural, but it shows you care
Method 10 out of 10: He asks for your help
Step 1. He may be trying to find out how much you are willing to help him
If he asks you for help with simple things like shopping or moving furniture, he probably really needs help. However, it could be a sign that he wants to see your efforts or a sign that he wants to spend more time with you. Whatever the reason, this is a positive sign!
