Are you unsure of what to text a girl to make her smile? Well get ready to have a whole arsenal of ways to make a woman smile over text. Below are some texting tips, techniques, and examples of messages to make her smile that you can start using right away.
Make her smile with playful nicknames
A great way to make a girl smile over text is to use fun, playful nicknames. The key to finding a good nickname for a girl is to have fun with it. If you think up a nickname for a girl that makes you smile, there’s a good chance it will make her smile, too.
You might be struggling to come up with a fun nickname for the girl, so here are a few examples of things to call girls taken straight out of The Text Book. If any of these nicknames for girls resonate with you and fits the personality of the girl you’re texting, try it out. Otherwise use these nickname examples as a springboard to think of your own fun nicknames for girls.
Nicknames to text girls: Girl Scout, smurfette, rubber ducky, Snuggles McGee, honey biscuit, sparkle princess, sassy pants, sex kitten.
If you can’t think of a nickname to text the girl keep in mind that you can always recruit her to help. Try texting the girl something like “hmm I really need a nickname for you…” and see what she comes up with. This can also be a good way to start fun, flirty conversations with women.
Banter with women through text
If you’re looking to make a girl laugh remember that the same banter techniques that work when approaching women are also going to work when texting girls. Banter techniques such as role play for example, can be a great way to get a girl interested and engaged while making her smile.
The trick to role play is to give you and the girl fun roles to play. For instance, you could playfully pretend that the girl is your stalker, texting the girl something like “did I just catch you spying on me as I was changing out of my gym clothes my little stalker?” This imaginary scenario of her stalking you can create a fun world for the two of you to play in. (Just keep in mind, the stalker role play is only going to work if she’s stalking you…otherwise it might creep women out.)
More banter techniques
Another way to make a girl smile over text is through playful teasing. Bantering with women in this way is great because it gets a girl to laugh while showing that you’re not intimidated by her.
Don’t be afraid then, to poke fun at the girl you’re texting. For example if the girl has a bit of a dorky side (which everyone has to some degree) you can playfully tease her with something like “you’re a closet dork aren’t you…except without the closet ;)” Light, playful teasing like this is a great way to get the girl to smile over text (for more on how to banter with women through teasing, check out the Art of Charm podcast on banter and playful teasing.)
One last note: If you’re going to use playful teasing when texting girls, be sure to use emoticons. Texting a girl “You’re such a dork” is going to come across very different than “You’re such a dork ;)” Without an emoticon, she might take your teasing seriously and it could ruin any attraction the woman had towards you.
Make her smile (without being funny)
There are also ways to make a girl smile over text without making her laugh. Stroking her ego, for example, won’t make a girl laugh but it will get a woman to smile and feel good about herself (the ability to make a woman feel good about herself is huge in building attraction with women).
Texting a girl in a way that strokes her ego can be as simple as letting her know that she’s on your mind. People love hearing about themselves and if she knows you’re thinking about her in a positive way, it’s going to get her to smile and feel good about herself.
One way to do this when texting girls is to let the girl know that someone/something in your day reminded you of her. Here’s an example text taken from The Text Book that demonstrates how to text girls in this way: “I just saw the cutest little squirrel in the park gathering nuts and it made me think of you”
A stupidly easy way to make women smile
Perhaps the easiest texting tip for men to use that will get a girl to smile almost every time is called “The Odd Time Technique”. All you have to do is suggest an odd time to meet up in your texts to girls. For example, if she says “let’s meet at 6”, you can reply by saying “that’s wayyyy too early, let’s make it 6:03”. That little bit of playfulness is an easy way to get a girl to smile.
The right mindset for texting girls
Always remember that the most important part of texting girls is to have fun. The more fun you have in your texts to girls, the easier it’s going to be to come up with messages to make her smile. Don’t be afraid to take risks and try new things in your texts to girls as doing so will make the whole process more alive and enjoyable for both of you.
