'I wanna text u up 2nite': Learn to woo your loved one digitally.

For every geek out there looking to flirt with other geeks, here are some exciting ways to do it.

Sexy SMS
In order to flirt via SMS (short message service), you have to know what you're doing. These are the musts.

  1. Be quick to respond
    No one likes to wait too long for some unskilled SMSer to type. You've gotta get your predictive text down and use your elite skills to show your hottie how fast you can make it work. (Please note: Making tech work quickly and efficiently is hot.)
  2. Don't misspell
    It's not the end of the world if something is spelled wrong, but it doesn't make you look smart and it also shows you don't know how to use predictive text.
  3. Be witty and flirtatious
    Here are a few examples you might like to use.
    • "I've hacked your mind and can hear what you're thinking about me."
    • "Can you feel me in your pocket?"
    • "How's your booty?"
    • "I wanna text u up 2nite."
    • "Meet me in the bathroom in 20."
    • "Is that a hard drive in your case or are you just happy to see me?"


DPDA
There's something about a good dose of DPDA (digital public display of affection) that can really get a relationship going. Mentioning your love interest in your blog is a great way to flirt, especially if you know they read it. If they don't, you may have to depend on someone forwarding them the link.

Make sure you mention the special guy or girl in a good light from this digital distance. It's hot.

Erotic email
Email seems obvious, and it is. But if you make your messages crafty, they become sexy. I love it when a boy I like sends me an email that contains a song that has meaning, a poem that he wrote, a random thank you for something I didn't think he noticed, a picture he made for me in Photoshop, or just a note filled with sweetness.
Be careful with email love notes in the workplace, however. You don't want to end up like the people in this story.
