Have your conversations in person. You can't increase anybody's level of attraction with any amount of paragraphs on a phone.
You can do that later when you're actually in a relationship.

While this is what I would prefer, and it’s probably better for long term human interaction if it was, it’s no longer true for most younger people (in y experience). More than being a convenient way to make plans, texting is now a critical part of the “courting process” and generating attraction. Even into the relationship, girls view texts during the day, funny interesting texts, as a constant sign that you like and appreciate them. I’m 28 and the stereotype of calling a girls house, asking her mom for permission to talk to her, and then having a chat is something I’ve never done. People my age didn’t have phones in jr high but we had msn messenger and would IM each other after school, then we all got phones and that rolled nicely through. No one talks to each other on the phone and haven’t for so long that now calling someone is weird. It’s a instant messaging world now, and if you wanna have a chance with most girls under 30 you need to be good at it. And yes it is a skill.
