You’re a devil when it comes to starting a conversation, but how good are you at knowing when to bail out? As you know, there is an art to being a flirty and fun conversationalist who holds people’s attention and gets them to do what we want. Natural born flirters tend to be good conversationalists, and the key to them being so good is that they know how to open and how to close with flirty texts to make the conversation exciting and engaging.
Flirty text messages are no different. See, a big problem some people have is prolonging a conversation way past its sell-by date. We should have exited a long time ago, but we kept it going until it died a horrible, awkward death.
Things got so bad that we even brought up our morbid fear of death! What were we thinking?!
A well-timed text message can keep the conversation light and playful, enhancing intimacy and connection.
It’s okay, though, because I’ve got the answers to your problem. In this article, I’m going to show you how to time your exit to perfection so that you flaunt your sass and leave your partner wanting more.
First things first, though …
With Flirty Text Messages Timing Is Everything
If a conversation looks like it’s about to die and you can’t think of any way to revive it, don’t revive it. Don’t even try. Just use your exit strategy and get the heck out of there.
If you try to revive a clearly dead conversation, you’ll inevitably say something silly that you’ll later regret. Moreover, it will make you look a tad desperate, and worse still … what if they don’t reply?
It’s super-duper important that you always end on a high. If a conversation is about to die but things haven’t gotten awkward yet, end it there. This is where verbal foreplay comes into play, as it helps maintain the chemistry and attraction without overstaying your welcome.
Likewise, if you’ve told some amazing jokes and your partner can’t stop giggling, consider ending it there before the humor dries up and you say something awkward and terribly unfunny.
Playful texts can also be a great way to keep the mood light and fun, ensuring that your partner looks forward to your next message.
If you can time your exit to perfection, you won’t outstay your welcome, you’ll leave your partner with positive memories, and you’ll leave ‘em wanting more. Moreover, they’ll eventually say “you’re always leaving!”, and this is exactly what you want. It means they want more of you!
Here are some sassy exit strategies and flirty text messages for ending your next conversation.
1. Starting the Conversation
Starting a conversation with someone you’re interested in can be nerve-wracking, but sending a flirty text can be a great way to break the ice. When starting a conversation, it’s essential to be confident and genuine in your approach. A simple “good morning” or “hello” can go a long way in getting the conversation started. You can also use a playful text to show your interest and make the other person feel special.
Did you know that small, frequent acts of affection significantly increase relationship satisfaction? A study published in the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships found just that. So, those cute flirty texts you send can actually make a big difference.
Flirty texts can create a sense of excitement and anticipation, making the other person want to engage with you more. The key to writing effective flirty texts is to be genuine and authentic. Avoid fake flattery; instead, focus on making the other person feel special in a real way.
Using text messages to start a conversation can help avoid awkwardness and make the interaction feel more natural. So, next time you want to get things rolling, don’t overthink it. A simple “good morning” or a playful text can be the perfect way to start talking.
1. Good Morning, You’re Busy
You know what happens when you’re glued to your phone and reply instantly? Your partner gets the impression there is nothing else going on in your life. Instead, you’ve got all the time in the world to text them back and – as long as they’re up for it – you’re more than happy to keep texting all day long.
That hardly makes you look intriguing! In fact, it makes you look predictablemundane and a bit boring…
And a bit needy
Even if you aren’t busy, don’t be afraid of making it look like you are. Tell them you’ve got stuff to do, places to go and people (not hotties) to see. Make them stop thinking you’re always available and let them miss you a little.
2. Tease Them!
Are you really going to tell them you’ve just disrobed, got totally naked and are about to use your new extra-soapy soap in the shower and therefore can’t text them for another 20 minutes?
Are you seriously going to tell them you’ve just arrived in a dressing room with lots of new lingerie and are about to try it on but won’t be able to text until you get home because your phone is about to die?
And are you FOR REAL going to tell them you’ve just come home soaking wet from the rain but have gotta go now to get naked and do stuff
YES, YOU DARN WELL ARE.
Teasing like this is a bit cruel, but it’s oh so sexy and exciting. It’s arguably the best exit strategy you’ve got if you want to keep them begging/salivating for more. This kind of playful teasing acts as verbal foreplay, mixing humor, intrigue, and romance to create chemistry and attraction.
And, hey, it totally works.
3. End with a Question About Your Next Date
The worry we have when we leave a convo is that it might be hard to start a new one up, especially if it all ends a bit flat. Where do we go from there? This is why it’s a good idea to pin your entire exit strategy on a question.
Try as much as possible to make it related to the conversation you’ve just had, but if that’s not going to work, then say something like, “Hey, I meant to ask you this earlier but …” and then end with “Let me know next time we talk.” You can also express enthusiasm for a potential next date by highlighting enjoyable moments from your conversation, which can help nurture the connection and set the stage for future meetings.
They might respond there and then, but don’t get tempted to reply back right away. Save it until tomorrow so that you’ve got an excuse to resume contact.
These are the best sassy exit strategies when you need to end your next text conversation. Remember, timing is everything. None of these flirty text messages will work if the conversation has already died, which is why it’s important to exit either during a peak in the convo, or during a moment when you can tell the conversation is on the verge of dying. Good luck!
Self Control and Flirting
Flirting requires a certain level of self-control, especially when it comes to texting. It’s essential to know when to hold back and when to push forward. Sending too many texts at once can come across as clingy or desperate, while not sending enough can make the other person feel uninterested. Finding the right balance is crucial in keeping the conversation engaging and exciting.
A study published in the Journal of Sex & Marital Therapy found that technologies allowing couples to interact as though they were face-to-face can help maintain intimacy and sexual satisfaction despite physical separation. This means your flirty texts can create a sense of intimacy and connection, even when you’re miles apart.
Self-control is essential in flirting, as it allows you to build anticipation and excitement in the other person. Knowing when to hold back and when to push forward can make the difference between a successful flirtation and an unsuccessful one. So, next time you’re texting, remember to pace yourself. A well-timed flirty text can keep the spark alive and leave your partner wanting more.
