What should you text a girl every time you text her first? Is "Hey" bad?
"Hey" isn't bad at all. It's not stupid either. Most people will say start with something interesting to get her attention. This is all good but I don't think it's a big deal imho. When a girl likes you, it doesn't matter what you say, as long as you don't disrespect her.Heck I've been in situations where I was super creative and funny with my opening message and I got no reply back for my efforts. It's almost as if they thought I was trying too hard. Or maybe, they just didn't give a shit about my looks lol.I have found there is a serious gap between what women claim to want and what they want. I frankly don't know the answer to this. I consider myself moderately attractive. I've had instances on dating sites where the girls will say "i won't reply to hey, hi, sexy" or that sort of thing on their profile. Yet the same girls initiated conversations with me using those exact phrases. And I get PISSED due to the double standards!Three rules I can tell you:1. It's not what you say, it's how you say it. Grow some balls.2. If a girl likes you, she will make accommodations for you and your "hey". If she doesn't reply, move along. She has a right to not like you.3. Dating is a zero-sum "game". Talk to more girls so you can have more options. You are bound to find a few that will like you. This is very important! Girls do the same thing too! They talk to a lot of guys, and that's why they get to be picky. Stop worrying about what women like or what to say to them. It's a very hard question to answer. Build you social value or build value through self improvement of some sort. Build your confidence. Meditate! Girls only value guys that they perceive to have "value". Build your value for you! If a girl likes what you're valuable for, good for her!Don't get hung up on one girl. This is a big mistake. If you like a girl, ask her out fast! If she doesn't like you, bounce. On to the next one! I have found trying to please someone to be self defeating. There is no amount of creative texting that can get a girl to like you if she doesn't have a degree of attraction to you.
Is my Ex-girlfriend asking "Hey! what have you been up to?!?!" a good sign?
Is my Ex-girlfriend asking "Hey! what have you been up to?!?!" a good sign? Me and my ex broke up about a little over a month ago and we talked as friends and then we both got busy and just stopped. After a week of not texting or anything she texted me to see what i have been up to, and a week before she said"what's up stranger?" we are hanging out tom. is this a good sign or am i reading too much into it? Oh this might help answer. she said that later in life maybe we can have a relationship again. Like everyone i'm scared she will find someone else while not hanging out with me as a friend cause i told her that would be tough for me. I'm really gotten myself together and came to see what i've done wrong and know that i don't want to live for her but share life with her. Any help?
How to say hey what are you up to? in japanese?
「どうよ」"dou yo" means basically "what are you up to?" or "how's it hanging?" 「おっす」"ossu" is an informal way of saying hi, like "hey" or "yo". Although Japanese youth use "yo" as a way of saying hi too, these days. Edit: This is really, really informal, not recommended for polite company. If you want to be on the safe side, and go for something neutral (which means polite, but not over the top), try 「こんにちは。何をしていますか？」"Konnichiwa. Nani wo shiteimasuka?" ("Hello. What are you doing?")

When a guy texts you “What’s up,” how should you respond?
Question answered: When a guy texts you “What’s up,” how should you respond?I typically respond to a text message like this by saying, “Hi there. How are you?”I don’t read too much into a simple greeting like “What’s up?”. To me it essentially means “Hello” or “Hi”.Regardless who is sending me this message, I generally respond the same way. The sender simply wants to initiate a conversation.If it’s a guy that you know - someone you gave your number to - then you can also tell him what you’re doing when he sends you his message, or tell him what your plans are for the day. After that you can also say “What’s up with you?” as well.If the guy is on the younger side, I would go easy on him. He may not have highly developed social skills yet.
Do you find it annoying when someone asks you "Whatch you doing" when it's pretty obvious?
Honestly, I find it annoying as well. Like really, are people blind?!?! And my boss does the same thing. I work at Hollister and my manager comes up and was like: Hey, whatcha doing? I just say: Oh nothing. I’m helping Amy do this. Or Folding clothes. And start a conversation. I know exactly how you feel. It’s annoying but I don’t wanna insult a person’s feeling by stating the obvious- so I get a little specific, change the topic, and start up a conversation! (:
How to ask a guy what he's doing tonight?
There's a guy that sometimes throws good parties and I want to see if maybe he's having one tonight. I don't want to hang out with him, I just want to know what he's doing tonight. However, on occasion, he won't answer his messages. So guys, what's the best way to ask him what he's doing without sounding like I want to hang out? And what's the best way to ask him to ensure he replies?
What's the difference between "How are you" and "What's up"?
“How are you?” clearly connotes an interest of the well being of the person to whom the question is being posed and is inviting them to talk about the goings-on in their life while you are implicitly listening.“What’s up?” lacks the implication of direct personal concern that the word you invokes. It is instead an invitation to talk about anything the person to whom it is asked has on their mind, which might be personal in nature but also more open-ended in regard to observations about errata like sports or politics.I might be biased here because “What’s up?” is how my mother greets me when I call her once a week or so to visit and catch up via phone, and it always makes me bristle a bit since it sounds informal to the point of being impatient. It is akin, in my mind, to greeting someone by saying “Make it quick.”
What does the idiom "What are you up to" mean?
This phrase can also be used in an accusatory fashion. Let’s say I’m 12 years old and I’m cooking up some bad behavior with my Brother and my Mother discovers some hanky panky - she would say “What are you two up to?” Not good.
