Do girls look desperate if they text first? (Page 4)

Question

Personally, I am one to text a guy first instead of me waiting for him. I have no problem in being able to start a conversation, especially with a guy I like. Does this make me look desperate or too easy if I text first all the time or do guys like it when a girl has the ability to easily start a conversation? Especially if that guy tends to be more introverted than extroverted in their nature.

ghostqueen · Answer

No, you look come across as interested. Guys get tired of always texting first.

I like it when a girl texts me first, let's me know she's interested in me or thinking of me

Samathoo · Answer

I usually start conversations every once in a while not EVERY time but I like when it’s equal

Dragonman558 · Answer

No, it doesn't matter who talks first, as long as you're talking to each other, lol

thekittykatkatie · Answer

It just shows you like him, if he's the right guy he'll see it as cute aswell

Juxtapose · Answer

No lol. As a matter of fact a lot of men will greatly appreciate a woman who can actually take initiative.

AshKet · Answer

To me, that shows that she's actually really interested in me.

swimmer120 · Answer

No I wouldn’t see why it would be desperate. As long as you don’t text them 5 million times in a row as most guys do😂

Ghost_Woof · Answer

Girls think too much... LOL. It doesn't make you separate but if it's always one sided that can be a problem in the future.

ScaffHongaar · Answer

No, I don't think it matters... and anyways, we are equal in today's society so why would it even matter to anyone

LohrvsData · Answer

Not at all. It shows that you're willing to take the same chances as us guys. I personally love that in a woman.

antonio_2017 · Answer

No men actually like if you text first. If you think he's interested your probably right so why not start it first. Experiment with guys. Most guys are easy to see through.

femme_A · Answer

It seems desperate if you're always the one texting first, sure, but otherwise it doens't matter who texts first

hunterzoloman655 · Answer

That waiting rule for texting is a load of bullshit every guy wants to talk to the one he dears and trully loves everyday and waking moment

applethini · Answer

Makes you look like you have confidence and that you can stand on your own two feet as opposed to so many other woman in this world

Professor_Zoom · Answer

No it doesn't make you look desperate. If you have an interest just go ahead and ask what he's up to on the weekend.

markscott · Answer

It only makes you look a little desperate, if you keep texting, when he doesn't answer, or he remains vague, when you text time after time.

knight_55 · Answer

No, not at all (though all the times might seem too much). Yes, guys like those girls who can easily start a conversation. Being an introvert it's great to have someone who can text first.

Pitta12 · Answer

Absolutely not, in fact i could really use some pick-up lines ti start a conversation Online. If yo would be so kind. :)

Carloguy · Answer

As a guy who NEVER texts first i applaud you for giving guys like me a chanse to talk and meet people 😊

sean893 · Answer

Absolutely not either! The moment a girl texts first, it's gonna give me a whole lot more energy to talk to!

Gabriella22 · Answer

you know , sometimes I ask myself the same question.. it is so interesting to know what you guys think?

outie40 · Answer

I don’t think it does. God there was a time that you actually had to go up and have a face to face conversation with that person.

sixeightt · Answer

No. I prefer the woman to text first because that shows me that she wants to talk actually. At the end of the day, the woman should text first anyway because its up to her if we talk or not

Dre_808 · Answer

I like when a girl sends the first text. I think it shows that the girl is serious, and she will go after what she wants. Which make her even more attractive.

SherlockHolmes2012 · Answer

Depends on the guy if he's always texting first then texting first is great however if it's a guy who has girls texting him all the time then he'll see you as just another one of those girls.

ChaseParker · Answer

No please text first, feels so much better. Besides if the guy feels like you want him he's got a chance and it's all good for him

jul0813 · Answer

I'd say not really because guys will be happy if the girl texts him first. It shakes off the whole chivalry of how guys should always make the first move, but both parties should put in the equal effort.

Kittavar · Answer

Not really, I think both sides think they will look desperate if they text first. So taking the initiative shows that you're serious about the relationship. Aslong as you dont send a message that's desperate, it should be fine

taleswapper · Answer

Nope! Makes you look engaged and interested in furthering the acquaintance.

0112358 · Answer

I find people who wait to be texted, or who will never double text frustrating.

DarkKiki · Answer

I am personally one to text a guy/girl first. I don't see anything wrong with it, but this thought has crossed my mind at times. People have called me "ballzy" because if I want to talk to someone, I tend to tell them so.

Nineball_Seraph · Answer

I wholeheartedly endorse girls taking initiative. Please girls, do it more.

Arill · Answer

They do not look desperate or easy - they show genuine interest, we guys much like you appreciate the fact that someone is taking initiative and in all honesty, if both sexes were more outspoken and direct the world would be a better place.

CowboyKamp · Answer

No, it's actually appreciated because guys have the paradox between being appropriately confident and overly aggressive or creepy.

izzyq · Answer

No it just shows that y'all girls want to talk to us.

RexonG · Answer

You aren't desperate to text first. Sometimes women need to text first.

tbm1986 · Answer

It's always nice to know (or have it confirmed) that the girl is indeed interested.

Sleepyzombie · Answer

Nah. If you've got his number then go ahead and strike up a conversation

DilligentDude · Answer

Perhaps due to his introverted nature it should be alright. Might give him courage to respond with his interest toward you.

Dtegesd123 · Answer

Nope, guys have to chase so much , it gets tiring... I would appreciate/like this girl way more if she made first contact.

Davidx1 · Answer

Someone has to text first, if texting first looked like desperation how would text conversations even get started

Deathly_Pheonix · Answer

Yea, thus, I can't stand texting first because I feel like I'm bugging them, and it shows how much you care to show interest.

waynezaz · Answer

You can start the conversation. Just make sure he's into it.

ivancho1BG · Answer

if a girl starts conversation to me, i will feel like someone actually cares about me. Nothing wrong with it.

Guialdereti · Answer

I wish more girls woult take the iniciative, actually

Skinach · Answer

Personally I don't really care, just try to keep your conversations and first-texts to a low/medium. Texting him first every single day definitely makes you look desperate

pavlove · Answer

if the guys into you then you seem really sweet and genuine if he's not you're annoying also the girl in teh photo is relaly hot wait what was the question again?

brettles345 · Answer

No, Id love for it to be that way Unfortunately its not tacken into count tho and girls just dont text guys they like first...  Well not for me thats for sure...

BagoFit · Answer

I might completely ignore a girl if she's playing that 'Texting game'. Worst thing to do... Like if you're interested quit playing like a fucking kid and grow some clit for god sake... 😂

crazy8000 · Answer

Absolutely not! I prefer that a female do that if she gonna make me interested. if she wants to get me as her boyfriend she must also make it happen to show she has own drive.

Adam_INTJ · Answer

Sometimes. If she came across as desperate in her first impression, then her texting first will help confirm that feeling, but if not, then it will be hardly noted that she texted first.

ryancg · Answer

No, they don't look desperate. It's the sensible thing to do. When you want to talk to someone, just talk to them, no need for all the stupid games of "Who's gonna call first?"

thinkaloudtolive · Answer

I respect a woman that can initiate something for a change. Makes my life a little easier, too, if she's meeting me halfway. It shows she interested and confident.

shaman2 · Answer

Not at all. It makes you look interested. If you texted me first I would take that as sign of confidence, and I would be more direct with you in the future.

Johnmiller123 · Answer

No! If a girl text first that lets us know they’re really bout it which causes us to give them our attention instead of some other girl. Only if more girls understood this.

kurdice7 · Answer

I don't think so. It doesn't bother me if a girl decides to text first. If she wants something then I think it's good that she is willing to go after it.

mith9099 · Answer

No.. not at all... firstly we should stop comparing boys n girls stuff.. if you are interested in making conversation.. you must do it.. got life once.. enjoy it

Apope16 · Answer

No! They look CONFIDENT and interested. I love a gal texting me!

GingerGuy · Answer

Not at all, it shows interest on your part which is important too!
