I've came across a certain problem when talking to 8+ girls on whatsapp, they just respond too slow and I cannot express my good texting game because of that.

I'm wondering if I should just give up on trying to game them while texting and just ask them out after a few messages?

For the most part, texting should be used for logistical issue "Meet @ 'x' @ 9" or "Be there in 20" type of communication.

"Real" conversations via text can be misconstrued, misunderstood or can come across as weird.

Talking to women is the way to go; in addition to making sure your message is delivered perfectly, it separates you from the sheeple that endlessly text. Plus calling can reinforce your frame of the situation, which is rule #1.

Texting is also lazy; another reason it should be utilized as a "side dish", not the "main course".

I'm talking about 18year old girls that are 'raised' by facebook, whatsapp and instagram.

I have had the same thing, especially when doing a lot of daygame. When you have too many numbers that are on really shaky grounds, like a few minutes of interaction. Don't place much importance on them, cause it really takes time if you are texting girls all day, you have no idea when they are going to respond.

I don't fully agree on the "text her nothing but logistics", especially if you are starting out, that can work for some people, but you can lose girls you might have gotten on a date if you don't keep them on the "loop". I usually just come up with something I find funny once in a while and then just text about that to every new number.

My advice to you would be to just treat every "number" the same, tell her something funny / interesting, then after a random amount of time ask her for a date. No matter how long it takes for her to respond. If she is still busy after 4 times you asked her out OR she straight up tells you she is not interested, then you delete the conversation from whatsapp and leave it be.

I wrote this yesterday but it applies to this thread:

"Your texts should be more playful and emotionally engaging.

Your text game is a reflection of your personality.

If your text game is dry and boring, she will often assume that your personality is dry and boring.

Trying to set up a date before establishing a certain degree of comfort and rapport shows a lack of social awareness. Just because a girl gives you her number does not mean that she is ready to go on a date with you. You first have to display a bit a value to her by making her laugh, texting her something interesting, teaching her something, engaging her emotions, etc. Doing this lets her know that you have some value to offer and it also builds comfort and rapport.

I recommend that guys have at least one text dialogue with a girl after getting her number and BEFORE trying to set up the logistics for a date.

Don't ask for a date before building a bit of comfort!

Simply getting a girls number does not establish enough comfort.

Setting up logistics is logical. Vaginas do not often operate on logic, they operate on emotions and feelings.. Thus, building comfort and establishing an emotional connection is essential to setting the date. Without comfort and some sort of emotional bond, it's hard to get a date.

Don't be in a rush to set the date, be in a rush to make her laugh and tickle her emotions. Once you've done that, setting the date will be much easier.

It was 2007 (I think) when Roosh wrote-- "texting should be used for logistics only".

I believe that times had changed since then. Texting has literally replaced talking, in many cases. Texting and all other forms of electronic communication have become more personal and emotionally expressive.. If we are boring over social media and text, people will assume that we are boring in person.

I think it is to our advantage try and have an entertaining, fun, emotionally engaging text chat before trying to set a date.

You already know mine. I keep it simple and mostly about logistics. No jokes, stories, and sparing use of smiley faces.

I'm curious what you guys do.

It seems that he was exploring other strategies.

I believe that text game has evolved. it's now necessary and helpful to use text for more than just logistical set up. Send pictures, video, memes, etc. Anything that will help you create rapport with the girl."
