Ok the title is misleading, sorry :p Anyway I have a small question. I texted with a girl, and our last conversation went well. She was always the one who started the conversations by sending me first. Now, 4 days have passed and no reply. I think I should reply, but here is the question.

Should I start by saying, something playful that she forgot about me, or just say hey like nothing happened?

From my understanding, don't text back saying "you forgot about me". It's gonna make you look like an AFC and needy. Just try and text her something funny. I don't know what to actually text her, someone else can take this one. but absolutely dont say "forgot about me?"

Yeah like the dude above said definitely don't say 'forget about me'.

I would go for a funny opener or an intriguing one. If you can make it personal too (by like including your exclusive private nick name for her that woulld be good).

One I like is texting "stop it [private name]"
She's like "stop what?"
Then you say "smiling when you read my texts...see you're doing it again!"

That can break the ice and then you move on and talk to her about some interesting and ENGAGING stuff.

Also make sure you close the conversation, that's important. It makes you assertive and dominant. She will have to work a little to get you as you are the prize target and are not just some pushover. Equally don't play overly hard to get man!

Don't reply instantly as you'll appear needy and have nothing better to do. If she's texting immediately back, leave like like 10 mintues before replying as this will build up the suspense for her and get her anticipating avidly.

Hope that helps bro,

Let me know how it goes

I don't know if you've texted her yet but I would NOT say anything like "forgot about me?" because that would make you seem needy and in turn just lower your value and make you seem less attractive.

You need to send a text that doesn't lower your value and encourages her to reply to you but at the same time a text that really doesn't need a reply.

If you send a text that is an outright question like: "how are you doing?" and she doesn't respond then you've lowered your own value. Also that kind of text doesn't encourage her to respond, and you're actually more likely not to get a response with that kind of text.

But if you text an open loop that doesn't require a response like: "I can't believe what just happened" it doesn't matter if she answers or not because your value will remain the same as before. A text like that will encourage her to respond because she'll want to know what happened and then you can just reply with something real or something random and silly like "I slipped on a banana peel, I thought that stuff just happened in the cartoons" or "I was at line at Subway and this old lady behind me pinched my butt" or give her a little bit of information about what happened and leave the most important part of the story out, leaving her begging to know the rest and then you could set up a date and tell her you'll tell her the rest of the story when you meet up... or something along those lines.

Send her: congratulations
She'll say something like: HUH? What or why?
You say next: I thought about you
