It’s a very common scenario: you’re chatting with a guy via text, and then he suddenly goes ghost. Up until this point, he was fairly communicative.

His level of interest was obvious, and you assumed that another date or meet-up suggestion was just around the proverbial corner. Except now he’s radio silent, and what seemed like cute banter has turned completely one-sided.

You want him to text back, but you don’t want to come across as desperate, so what should you do?

This situation is common for many women because they’ve been convinced that men just ‘aren’t good communicators.’ Whether this label still holds true in this century, you can’t ignore that you aren’t getting the attention you deserve or require, and you feel some kind of way about it.

As you should.

If this man is actually interested but has proven to be a lazy texter, it’s not the worst thing in the world to give him a prompt. Let’s assume this isn’t a case where you just aren’t getting the hint. Let’s assume his level of interest is high, but for whatever reason, his communication has waned.

If you really want a response from this guy, and you don’t want to come across as desperate, these tips are just what you need to pique his interest once more.
