Sending the wrong response to a text message will kill conservation instantly. When you're chatting with someone you like, you like to keep the conversation going for as long as you can. However, if you leave no opportunity for the person to respond, they'll probably give up.
For example, replying to a message with "lol", ''yeah", or "alright" can make the communication awkward to continue. The other person might even think that you actually want to end the conversation.
In these modern times, if you want a chance to find a good relationship, it's important to know how to engage in interesting communication on all mediums, whether it's face to face, over the phone, or by text message.
Tips on How to Keep the Conversation Going
Once you learn the art of sustaining interesting communication, you'll begin to notice that you enjoy chatting with the people and so do they. It will give you confidence that you can speak to anyone. You'll learn a lot about people in general and become an interesting person yourself. Learn to master conversations and how to keep them going.
Tip 1: Ask interesting questions
When considering how to keep a conversation going over text, one of the most effective ways is to ask interesting questions. Each message the other person sends to you will have the information you can inquire about. If you've asked the girl you like how her day went and she replied "It was busy, but fine", you can ask her what made it so busy or say, "I hope you're not too worn out from it." This will let her know that you care about how she's feeling, and you're willing to give her a hand.
Tip 2: Focus on something fun
Light-hearted conversations are the easiest to keep going. Focus on something fun, and you are sure to find many things to talk about. Speaking about things that are pleasurable is also a good way to find out more about the object of your affection. The more you know about her, the easier communication will continue to be. It will give you the inspiration to help with tip #1, and you'll be able to ask her more insightful questions about the things she enjoys. This will also give you the knowledge you can use later on, such as information you'll need to plan the perfect date or surprise for her!
Tip 3: Talk about them
Most people do enjoy talking about themselves. It doesn't mean they are self-absorbed, it's simply that it's a topic they are knowledgeable about. Ask her a lot of personal questions about her experiences and what she thought and felt about them. This will likely make her fondness grow, as not many people are interested and have the patience to sit and listen to other people speak about themselves.
Tip 4: Make use of your good memories
It feels good to reminisce about the fond times we've shared with friends and loved ones. When thinking about how to keep a conversation going with a girl over text, talk about the experiences you had together. Even if you haven't made any major memories, sending something funny that happened last time you were together will work just as well.
Sharing your good memories will give you a feeling of closeness. Also, the times you spend together in the future will be more enjoyable, because you know that you'll both think about it and discuss it by text when you're apart.
Tip 5: Don't drop countless text bombs on them
Text messaging should be like a dance - you take a step, and then she takes a step. You don't want to pursue her across the dance floor! If you send too many messages without waiting for her to respond, she can feel overwhelmed. Not only that, but it's also just not a great way to communicate. It seems as if you don't really care about what her response will be. It's difficult to respond in a way that makes sense. A major reason you shouldn't bomb girls with countless texts is that there is a danger of coming on too strong. This is a huge no-no, as it may chase your girl away or at the very least, make texting with her awkward in the future.
Tip 6: Emojis, picture, and voice notes
A variety in the types of messages you send can make all the difference when planning how to keep a conversation going over text. There is no limit to the length of conversation if you use some interesting pictures or memes. Your witty use of emojis can also be a talking point. You can keep up a conversation using them (though not many). This is almost guaranteed to result in a lot of laughs.
Voice notes are very good for sharing thoughts and feelings that might be difficult to share by text. It allows you to speak freely and completely without being interrupted. It can actually be quite therapeutic. Give it a try.
Tip 7: Practice your patience
Connecting with someone by text message is an exercise of your patience. You send your well thought out message that is bound to get an amusing response, and then you wait.10 minutes pass and she's yet to reply. Has she lost interest? Is she in the bathroom or on the phone? Who knows. Should you send another message or should you call? The answer is always to wait. Practice your patience; let her know that you can be a patient guy and you are willing to wait for her. It will make you seem more confident, and she will (even if unconsciously) admire you for it.
Tip 8: Don't overthink it
Do you find yourself writing and deleting and rewriting your text messages in an effort to craft the most perfect and profound sentences? You're over-thinking your messages. It sounds like you're a university lecturer or a psychology student. Your conversation shouldn't be too taxing for a girl to type her responses. There's no need for messages asking her about something too deep or long-winded to be explained in a text message conversation. Just keep your conversation flowing and leave the complicated questions to ask face to face.
Tip 9: Bring up something they've told you about
When you refer back to something your love mentioned, she will know that you are genuinely interested in her and that you actually listen to what she says! If she told you that she was handing in an assignment at uni, ask her how she did. If she mentioned a few days ago that she was going to visit her ill grandma, inquire about her grandma's health, and let her know that you hope she's feeling better now. She will see you as someone that cares for her and her family. This is a wonderful way to win her heart.
Tip 10: Make your messages easy to respond to
Again, make sure that your messages are not difficult for her to respond to. If she sends you a funny text, don't just send back Lol". You can add a comment about her sense of humor, and ask if it's true or if she made it up herself. Before you hit send, first check that your message is something she will be able to easily reply to.
Tip 11: Proofread
It's fair enough to say you are not submitting a news article, but it's still important that you take the time to proofread your messages before you send them. If you type quickly and leave out words, she will have to try to figure out what you mean. If you keep making spelling or grammatical errors, she might make assumptions about your level of education. Remember that, when dating and getting to know each other, all impressions count, so make sure that they are good ones.
Tip 12: Know when to end it
It's great to know how to keep a conversation going with a girl over text, but it's also important to know when to end the conversation. Don't be tempted to drag it on if she's giving you signs that she wants to end it. If you've been chatting back and forth for a while and one of her responses are something like; "Ok well, It was great hearing from you", or "I've had a long day. I'm tired now", you know that she's ready to end the conversation.
Don't feel hurt; it's better to end the conversation before she simply stops responding.

There are many interesting ways of keeping text conversations with girls going on for longer than a few dry exchanges. Ask the girl you like about herself, her past, such as her pleasures, and even her people. Show her that you listen and you care.
All the conversations you have and the information you learn about her will help you become the perfect partner for her. If you can keep it up after you've won him, you're bound to have a happy, long-lasting relationship.
