You have spent some time with him last night. He is your friend, an acquaintance or your lover. You haven\u2019t heard from him since and now the question has started popping in your head: \u201cshould I text him?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

What can be the reason for it? Maybe you find it a lot more convenient to communicate with people via messages than over the phone. But is it a good idea? Follow these guidelines to make an informed decision.<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. <\/b> Should I text him first?<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    If you are sending the text message to him for the first time, it is a good idea to ask yourself whether or not it is the right thing to do. Have faith in yourself and go by your gut feeling. This way you can rest assured that you are making the right decision.<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. What Should I Text Him?<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Have you spoken to him in person? If you have, chances are you already know a thing or two about his likes or dislikes. If he is your lover, think about sending him one of the <\/span>special text messages<\/span><\/a> from the core of your heart. If he\u2019s someone who loves to crack a joke, and you are the one who\u2019s going to text him first, you can break the ice by sending him a clean and hilarious message along with an emoji. Even if you do not get a reply from him immediately, the odds are that he would consider doing so at some point in time just to share his opinion with you. <\/span><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. When should I text him?<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        This is a tricky question and depends on his nature as well as the kind of person he is. Unless you know him personally or interact with him on a daily basis, the wise thing to do would be to avoid texting him at odd hours. For instance, your message may either offend him or fail to draw his attention if you choose to text him at a time when he is either busy or about to go to bed. Try to find out the best time to get in touch with him. This would give you a clear idea about when you should drop him a text message. Also, as a spin-off, you would get a reply from him in a timely manner.<\/span><\/p>\n

          \n
        1. <\/b> Should I text him or wait?<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          You are more likely to consider this question if you have sent him a message and have not got a reply from him since. Even as you receive the delivery report of your text message to his number, it does not mean that he is available or has already gone through it. Ideally, you should allow him enough time to respond to your message. If it has been quite a while since you have sent him a message and haven\u2019t heard from him, it is not a bad idea to drop a text message.<\/span><\/p>\n

            \n
          1. Should I message him?<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            Is there a reason why you feel like texting him? Even as there is no particular reason behind it, there is no harm in initiating a conversation with him via messaging. A normal \u201cHi, how are you?\u201d or \u201cHello, how are you doing?\u201d can help you get the conversation going. So, the answer is \u201cYes\u201d unless you are texting someone with a reserved mind-set.<\/span><\/p>\n

            Conclusion<\/b><\/p>\n

            There is no harm in initiating a conversation with a man by means of a text message. However, taking the aforementioned guidelines into consideration while doing it will help you avoid the common mistakes and the problems associated with them. Use these ideas to clear the confusions linked to texting a guy, whenever they start clouding your mind and text him with a greater level of confidence.<\/span><\/p>\n
