DATING TIPS
“What is the etiquette for texting a girl?”
When is it considered too soon to text after a date or meeting?
Texting etiquette is pretty much the same as conversational etiquette:
- Be respectful
- Don’t pry too much on sensitive topics unless they initiate sharing about them
- Avoid being violent or malicious
- Use correct grammar to avoid miscommunications
- Don’t overwhelm the other person with messages
When it comes to an acceptable response time, it varies from person to person. Try to get a feel for their preferred pace. There may be some times when they cannot reply immediately, and other times it could take them a day. Always try to consider that they might be busy. Be patient and give them the time they need to reply.
Meanwhile, there’s no fixed rule about texting after a date or meet-up. However, if you want to give the impression that you had a great time, text them soon after the date rather than a few days later.
Above all, don’t overthink. Be simple and truthful. If you feel like texting them, do so. Just don’t bombard them with messages and give them time to reply.
