Guys, I am sure you have picked up a few helpful hints since you have started to get involved with your lady friend. We learn from our mistakes, so I am sure you have learned to never leave the toilet seat up after your GF made a late night trip to the bathroom one night and it resulted in a plunger being thrown at your head. Still, we all wish we could prevent these mistakes from happening, so allow me to give you all some advice on communicating with your significant other through text message.
If she is anything like me (aka sassy but a little bit passive from time to time) then she may say something that seems fine when you read it, but you should definitely reevaluate. Here are some of the text message translations you need to know with your girlfriend.
Text: Ok.
Translation: Prepare to not have sex for a while.
A period at the end of a sentence is something that people tend to freak out about a lot when analyzing text messages. If it is a full sentence, maybe followed by a question or the dancing girl emoji, then you’re definitely in the clear. But if it’s a simple “Ok,” followed by a period then you better hold on to your hat.
Woah, woah, woah, you’re overreacting, girl
No I am not. I have been with friends who wanted to get their message or wrath across subtly and 9 out of 10 times they do so by sending an “Ok.” text message.
Text: “It’s fine.”
Translation: “It is most certainly not fine.”
Dudes, you would think that you would have learned this by now. Notice that the period is there. If things were actually fine, she would be more likely to say something along the lines of “Really, it’s okay, don’t sweat it,” and added a cute emoji at the end.
Text: “I’ll be ready in like 30 seconds!!”
Translation: She will be done in no less than 15 minutes.
This is okay, because it means she is getting dolled up, and that’s not a bad thing, now is it?
Text: “What are you up to right now?” (Sent from 8 AM-10 PM)
Translation: What are you up to right now?
That was easy, now wasn’t it?
Text: “What are you up to right now?” (Sent from 10 PM-3 AM)
Translation: I can’t wait to hook up and I want to do it right now if it is not too much of an inconvenience.
Just because you are in a relationship does not mean that you can’t booty call your SO every now and then. Sometimes, it’s a nice way to spice up the relationship.
Text: “Sounds like you’re having fun! Who’s all there?”
Translation: Are there any girls there?
Your girlfriend wants to be cool and never be jealous, but sometimes it just happens, and when it does we simply do not want to say it.
Text: “Oooh, sounds exciting! Gotta love guys night’s in, right?”
Translation: Seriously, tell me now if there are girls there.
Seriously, jealousy happens and even if you say there are now girls there, we will have a hunch that there might be. Even if it’s your best friend’s Mom.
Text: “I don’t care!”
Translation: Answers may vary
This is an interesting response. It can either mean that your lady friend is indecisive and cannot make decisions for what to do, where to eat or what movie to see. It could also mean that she does care but for some reason she is trying to be mysterious and have you guess. Finally, and very validly, she may simply not care.
