What does it mean if my girlfriend is responding with single words?

Community Answer

She may be busy or not have time to text at the moment. Or, maybe she's tired of the conversation and doesn't have much else to say.

Question

How do I keep a conversation going?

Community Answer

You make it interesting so she'll want to continue the conversation. Also, don't talk about yourself too much. Find out what she is interested in.

Question

What should I do if she's playing hard to get?

Community Answer

She probably wants you to chase after her, so do that, but don't be too desperate because that could turn her off.

How can I text her when she's offline without seeming too desperate?

Community Answer

Tell her why you want to talk to her. Don't just send "hi," say something like, "Hey, I just wanted to tell you..."

Question

Do I have to talk all day all the time to get her attention?

Community Answer

No. That approach is very clingy and will make her uncomfortable. You don't need her attention constantly. Short texts once or twice a day is plenty unless you have something specific to say.

Question

What does it mean if I send a message and she sees it, but doesn't respond?

Community Answer

It means she was likely busy, or may have needed more time to think about how she was going to respond. Give her time to answer, you don't want to come across as insecure.
