How to make a guy simp?

I just need small tips/ideas on things that will break down his walls and make the guy I’m talking to simp a little. He’s stuck in this mindset of “my simping days are over” because of his past failed relationships but I genuinely care for him and I want him to be more affectionate.

IMPORTANT: We are going to be in different cities for the next month or so. suggestions have to be virtual (texts/snaps to send, etc)

ok clearly I have misinterpreted the meaning of simp. I would never want a guy to be submissive in such a degrading way like that. My question was just meant to mean that I want him to show me some more affection, that is all! :) sorry for any confusion!
