How to Know a Guy is Interested When He’s Texting You

Remember when dating was as easy as picking up the phone, asking someone out, then meeting up? Now it’s a string of texts, hundreds of them, and every single one has the potential to torpedo everything.

A new survey found five stats about the way single guys text, and maybe they’ll help you figure out whether a guy is interested or not. Check ’em out . . .

1. Three-quarters of guys will text you within a few days of getting your number. Here’s how that breaks down: 25% will send a message that night . . . 48% do it within one or two days . . . and 4% do it right away to make sure you didn’t give them a fake number.

2. 90% will text you within two days of a first date if it went well.

3. 91% say they were confused about what a woman meant in one of her texts in just the past week.

4. If a guy uses EMOJI, it probably means he likes you. 67% of men who don’t normally use them will drop them in texts to a woman they’re interested in.

5. 55% of guys won’t send a second text if their first one doesn’t get a response.
