Yes or no tarot
Should I text him?
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.
