Yes or no tarot

Should I text him?

First, ask your question. Then you’ll pick a card.

The message is typed. Your thumb is hovering. Draw one card for 'should I text him?' and see whether the cards say send, wait, or let it go.

Whatever the card says, a good rule holds: text when you'd be fine with any reply, including none. If his answer would make or break your evening, wait until it wouldn't.

When it's a good idea to text

  • You have something real to say

    An apology, a thank-you, a plan. A message with purpose is easier to answer than 'hey'.

  • The last move was his

    If he messaged last and you went quiet, replying is just good manners.

  • You're calm, not anxious

    Texting from a steady place reads very differently from texting to make a feeling stop.

  • You're okay with no reply

    If silence wouldn't wreck you, you're sending for the right reasons.

When to wait

  • It's late and you're lonely

    The 1 a.m. text is almost never the one you're proud of in the morning.

  • You've sent the last few

    If the conversation keeps ending with you, let him carry the next part.

  • He asked for space

    Respecting that is the most attractive thing you can do right now.

  • You're hoping it changes his mind

    A text can open a door. It can't make someone walk through it.
