Celebrity gossip is okay but reaching out to get a guy’s attention by either making up something or spreading gossip is not a good look. That is not cute, it does not work, and it is just embarrassing. I would text my crush something that was clearly meant for someone else so I could text again and say, “Oops sorry, that wasn’t meant for you.” I am guilty of doing this quite often in high school. And what’s worse is texting sober and pretending that you’re drunk texting so that you have an excuse for anything embarrassing you may say. I don’t know whoever thought this was a good idea, but it is always regretful in the morning. Likely he’ll pick up his phone, see he has to read a persuasive essay and go back to Fortnite. If you are in the middle of a deep conversation, go ahead and send a novel, but if you are just texting to start a conversation a paragraph is not the way to do it. But, even if he did, seeing a double text will surely deter him. You want to remind him you texted earlier and make sure he hasn’t forgotten. You can say it is a glitch with your phone all you want, but I know you just want to make sure he got your text.

Emojis are fine, but trying to get his attention with the unicorn, the frown face, and a pizza feels juvenile. There is nothing to make you want to respond. How would you like to receive it? It has no intrigue, uniqueness, or creativity. Plus, even if it were to work, it is likely you’ll get caught in the lie later. If you have to lie to get his attention, you don’t really want his attention. Don’t make up some big lie to get his attention. No matter how tempting, this is a lot riskier than you think it is. Trust me, it is better to be off his radar than to be on it in the wrong way. Some just won’t work, while others may get you the wrong kind of attention.Īnd there may be no such thing as bad press, but there is such a thing as bad attention. What NOT to text a guy to get his attentionīefore we get into all the goods, there are some things you should certainly avoid texting a guy. So, here is what to text a guy to get his attention.
