1. This is a more direct way to let her know you’re into her. If you two have been flirting for a while and you can’t stand the sexual tension anymore, try this message out.

You could also try texting:^[10]

   • “Home alone, pretty bored. What are you up to?”
   • “Just sitting at home. Want to come keep me company?”

1. If you want to avoid a late night booty call, this is the way to go. When a girl texts you “wyd” out of the blue in the middle of the night, she might have more sexual intentions than romantic ones. If you aren’t into hookup culture or you’re just not that into her, you can ignore her message until the morning. If you don’t want to respond at all, that’s okay, too.^[11]

   • A “wyd” text is slightly lazy, and it doesn’t show a ton of effort on her part. If you think she’s just texting you out of obligation, you don’t have to respond if you don’t want to.
   • You might also want to ignore a late night “wyd” if you know she’s been drinking.
