PUA Text Messages: Text Messages You Should and Should Not Send

PUA text messages can either help or hurt you. If you do it the right way, you can easily build attraction. If you do it the wrong way, you can easily destroy attraction. The PUA text messages that follow will list what works and what doesn’t and will explain why.

PUA Text Messages You Should Send

I just saw something that reminded me of you

Because this text message generates a lot of curiosity, it is almost guaranteed to get a response along the lines of “What did you see?” It’s also a great and easy way to start a text conversation.

Hey you…can you keep a secret?

This PUA text message is bait for a “yes” response, and after which you will respond back with, “Shhh, don’t tell anyone I said this… I met this girl (her) who is really nice. But I think she is kinda weird and I think all she wants to do is get in my pants.”

Quick! Quick! Beer or wine? Beer or wine???

When you text that to her she might be thinking “what the hell?” But don’t worry, she’ll end up playing along and answering your question. After she answers, ask another question such as “Light beer or dark beer?” After she answers that, just end the conversation with a “Thanks!” and don’t text her anything else. Yes, you’re being random, but you’re also being unpredictable which is a hell of a lot better than texting her something that all the other guys text her.

I really like it when you

Don’t finish you text on purpose. Whenever you start a text and don’t finish it, you establish control of the conversation because she will be the one wanting to know what you’re going to say next. You can also do the same thing with stories, which can be even more powerful. When she’s begging you to finish the story, bribe her to buy you a drink by saying “Ok I’ll tell you what’s next but only if you buy me a drink this Thursday night.”

You’re boring me. I thought you were supposed to entertain me.

Anytime you send a PUA text message that challenges her or even makes fun of her, you’re building attraction because now must live up to your standards and now she must win your approval. Things are much easier when you have the power instead of her.

PUA Text Messages You Should Not Send

Did it hurt when you fell from heaven?

Unless you’re going to make a joke out of it, a corny pick up line will almost never work as a text message. Commit this to memory: do not text her a corny pick up line.

Will you go out on a date with me?

Do not directly ask her out on a date via text for at least 2 reasons: 1) if she doesn’t respond to your text, you’re left hanging out to dry and 2) when you label a date as a date, it puts too much pressure on the girl to have to commit to something that she’s probably not even sure about.

Oh

Giving her a one word response is a waste of a text. It’s more effective if you don’t respond at all because she’ll be the one checking her phone every 10 minutes to see if you texted back.

Why aren’t you texting back?

Asking her for a response is desperate and needy, and even if you ask her to text you back, it gives her more reason not to. Project that you have more important things to do with your life other than waiting for her response.

Hi, I’m taking up 160 characters for this text message while you’re only taking up 20 characters.

Obviously that is not something you would text, but the idea is to mirror her text messages and not write a book length text. If she uses 20 characters, you use 20 characters. And save the long messages for when you either talk to her on the phone or in person.

It’s important that with these PUA text messages, you can tell the difference between what you should and should not send. It’s also important that you use these PUA text messages for what they are: examples. Examples that you can customize to come up with texts that work well for you personally.
