Number closed last night after 10min of talking to her. She even text me a picture of herself after we parted ways. I decided to text her a joke the next day as my first text message. I have not got a response and Im kinda feeling retarded about what I text. So my questions are as follows:

Me: Hey little ninja! What has a bottom on the top? :D

1. Is that an alright first text? Got the idea from reading some posts.
2. What should I have said as a first text?
3. Most importantly, when and what should I say to her for a second try before I put this one behind me?

you text as you talk in person. Nothing changes, except tweaking it a bit to sound playful instead of serious. I would suggest sending a tex reminding her of the time you both had. She is still technically a stranger so use some callback texting to get her to jolt back to the time of positive interaction between you two and work from there.

You should have sent this

"Hey beb (insert callback humor or joke), what's your schedule look like this week?"

done, straight to the point.

Um, have you told her any similar joke set-up before? Because she might be telling herself "what the fuck is wrong with this kid?"

Or you may not have gamed her right... Keep in mind you spoke to her for only short 10 minutes.

No I did not tell any previous jokes :/ I was trying to search for some good first time texts that were funny instead of the boring "Hey, how's your day". I came across some suggested jokes so I went with the one I sent. Now that I think about it, it was kinda dumb. Still have not got a reply back from her...

Any ideas on what I could say for one last attempt at getting a response?

Every text you send has to have value.

Now, a good first text is something you can relate to your interaction with her. Call-back humor is great. Role-playing is great. A perfect set up is if you set up a role-play in the interaction (i.e. "Let's fly to blah blah next week. You buy the tickets, I bring the booze.") With that you can then open with a text continuing from that. It's playful. "Bought the tickets yet?" or "Let's fly to blah-blah and have crazy adventures with blah-blahs. Are you adventurous?"

This is why your text didn't fly. It didn't relate to anything. She's probably forgotten you. Give her a chance to remember you and your interaction and the things she felt with you.

A friend of mine simply texts "Hey it's X, the gorgeous guy you met last night. Since we had a great interaction it would only be fair to ask you out for a coffee. X" I haven't used this personally as it doesn't go with my frame and wouldn't be congruent with me. But it does for him.

I've learnt that making a connection through texting or calling is important. Don't simply always tell her to come out with you. This gives the impression you're only after the poon. Instead be playful, build it up again, and then tell her you two should meet up. She knows it's on.

A good second text would be "You still alive?"

Remember every text has to have value. Make sure yours do.

Yep, what Traveller said.

But personally, I wouldn't even bother with a second text because I'm much too proud for that. On the other hand I wouldn't have sent that first text.

What I would personally do is just hope I bump into her again and re-build what I once had going on with her.

Persistence is attractive. But yes that first text wasn't great at all.

I didn't make a second contact or text attempt. BUT I did wake up in the morning to a "good morning" text from her. Although, the conversation was kinda boring,

Her: Good Morning
Me: She's alive! Lol. I was about to get a search party going. :P well good afternoon
Her: Lol, im alive and working...How your day?
Me: My day is great. But it just got better. I was looking forward to talking to you.
Her: You working today
Me: No. Not today. Busy with other chores. When are you free?
Her: Send me your pic
Me: [pic] Remember me?
Her: Hey how long was this pic.
Me: In june 2012...pretty recent
Her: Okay
Her: Where do you live? I know you don't live far from me
Me: *****, you live in ***** I remember you saying.
Her: Yeah
Her: Do you model?
Me: I've done a few shoots.


a boring conversation if you ask me. I she wanted to remember what i looked like when she gave me her number sat. night. we were both tipsy. No emotional conneshe rememberedction yet. But I need to meet her again and make a better one.

Ehh
Sounds needy to me
Quit crawling back to her after she texts you it's exactly what she wants
She gets you hooked, goes away, then when she comes back you're all over her with no control (which is exactly whats happened)
You asked for a meet, and you didn't get an answer because you let her take control
Next time get her after you, "good morning"
"Hey"
"How's your day?"
"Awesome, you coming to the party at my place tonight?"
"Hmm send me a pic of you"
"Not yet, you get that as a reward for the answer"
"Ok where do you live?"
"Xxx bring something to drink"
"Blah blah"
And then stop with her sending the last text

You can't make a relationship or connection over text, the best way for her to remember you is to meet you not see a few words you type

"Me: My day is great. But it just got better. I was looking forward to talking to you."

Yikes...

Not only was it needy, it was just way too needy. You spoke to her for 10 minutes, not 100 hours. That's something you'd say to a girlfriend, not a recent acquaintance.

Again, you don't care about bitches. They reject you? NEXT. Even if you actually care, like she's the hottest thing mixed with the best personality, ACT LIKE YOU DON'T GIVE A SHIT.
