We have all been there. You are sitting on your couch, scrolling through TikTok, and you realize you haven’t talked to your man in three hours. You want to reach out, but your brain is absolute mush. Usually, you just send a “hey” or a random meme of a cat falling off a chair. I once tried to be cute and send a “thinking of you” text, but my phone autocorrected it to “stinking of you” because I was at the gym. Needless to say, the spark did not stay alive. It actually went into hiding for a few business days.
Texting is the glue of modern dating. It is how we stay connected when life gets busy. But let’s be real. Doing it right is an art form. You want to be sweet without being clingy. You want to be funny without trying too hard. Most importantly, you want to remind him why he fell for you in the first place. These texts are your secret weapon. They are designed to make him grin at his phone like a dork. Whether you have been together for two months or two years, these little digital nudges keep the fire burning. Ready to become the best thing that happened to his notification bar today? Let’s dive in.
The “Thinking Of You” Sweeties

What To Do If He Doesn’t Respond
We have all sent a text and then stared at the three little dots until our eyes watered. If he doesn’t respond right away, do not panic! And definitely do not send five more texts. He might be driving, he might be in a meeting, or his phone might be dead.
- The Three-Hour Rule. Give it at least three hours before you even think about it again.
- Don’t double text a question. If you asked a question, wait for the answer.
- Assume positive intent. He isn’t ignoring you because he hates you. He is just living his life.
- Keep yourself busy. Put your phone in another room and go do something for you.
There you have it! Sixty ways to make sure your man knows he is the king of your world. Keeping the spark alive isn’t about grand gestures or expensive gifts. It is about the daily effort. It is about the “I saw this and thought of you” moments. It is about making him laugh when he’s had a rough day.
Remember, you are a catch. These texts are just a way to remind him of that. Don’t be afraid to be yourself, be a little goofy, and show your heart. Relationships are supposed to be fun! So go ahead, pick one of these, and hit send. You might just make his whole week.
