Whatever the stage, the rule is the same: texts that show you pay attention beat texts that show off. “How did the thing you were nervous about go?” will outperform every clever line ever written, because it proves she's on your mind as a person, not a prize.
Texts for the girl you just met
- Hey, it's [name]. I'm still thinking about that [topic] take of yours. You might've changed my mind.
- You mentioned [thing she loves] — I did my homework. Thoughts on [related question]?
- Confession: I was hoping you'd text first, then decided I'd rather just talk to you.
- What's the rest of your week look like? I'm asking for a very specific reason.
- I told my friend about [funny moment from meeting]. She said, and I quote, “text her.”
Texts for your girlfriend
- How did the [thing she was worried about] go? Been thinking about you all morning.
- Saw [small thing she loves] and bought it. No reason. Okay, one reason: you.
- You looked so good this morning it was honestly distracting. HR will be hearing from me.
- Reminder: I'd choose you again today. And tomorrow. It's becoming a pattern.
- Rough day? Say the word and I'll bring dinner and zero questions.
- I bragged about you today. Couldn't help it.
Texts for your wife
- Still my favorite person. Just doing my regular audits.
- Thank you for everything you did this week that nobody clapped for. I saw all of it.
- Date night Friday. I already booked it. You just have to show up and be lovely, which you can't help.
- Remember [old memory]? Been smiling about it for ten minutes.
- The kids are asleep by 8. After that, you're mine.
- I know today was a lot. You're doing better than you think you are.
The one rule: attention is the whole game
Women consistently describe the same texts as the ones that made them feel loved — not poetry, not paragraphs, but evidence of attention: he remembered the interview, noticed the new haircut, asked about the friend drama by name. Attention can't be faked or copy-pasted, which is exactly why it's valuable. Every template above has a slot for a specific detail. The detail is the text.
How to use What2Text for her
- Open What2Text and choose the relationship stage — new, dating, or long-term.
- Give it one real detail: what she's dealing with this week, an inside joke, what you appreciate about her.
- Pick the tone and get three texts that turn your attention into words. She won't know an app helped. She'll just know you noticed.
