okay decided EVERYONE needs to see this<3
Number one: Spell out your words. Don’t hit people with “hru” like you're speedrunning English. Type a full sentence. A real one.
Number two: Don’t say “just tired.” BABY WHY?? Give lore. Drop the backstory. “I slept 2 hours bc I was writng a fanfic,” GIVE SOMETHING.
Number three: react like a human. If someone tells you something funny, don’t respond with “lmao.” At least give an “LMAOO I CHOKED ON MY WATER.” Give visuals. Give a moment .
Number four: ask stuff back. It’s not an interrogation; it’s tennis. You hit the ball back or the convo dies
Number five: talk about things you wanna do. Your goofy dreams count. “I wanna dye my hair questionable colors,” “I wanna learn how to crochet a duck,” anything.
Number six: talk about hobbies and random knowledge you learned. People love weird facts. Drop one. Make them go EXCUSE ME???
Number seven: match energy. If someone texts with sparkle, respond with sparkle If they text chill, be chill. Don’t be a wet cardboard plank when they’re giving sparkle.
Number eight: STOP TYPING LIKE A TIKTOK GYM BOY. No “wyd
,” no “u good?” when you clearly don’t care. The bare minimum is ILLEGAL here.
Number nine: emojis are seasoning. Sprinkle some. Not too much. Just enough to stop looking like a tax form.
Number ten: give updates. “Bro a bird just flew into my window,” “I think I accidentally summoned something.” Little life snippets keep convos alive.
Number eleven: don’t be scared to overshare in a fun way. Not trauma dumping, but like “I ate waffles for breakfast and tasted like grandma .” Humanize yourself.
Number twelve: compliment people in weird ways but that are true. “Your vibe radiates ‘would win in a zombie apocalypse.’” That’s how you make friends.
Number thirteen: for the love of everything, have a TONE. Use caps. Use “bro.” Use dramatic storytelling. Be a character. Dry people fear personality.
If we follow these, maybe we can save this app from becoming a digital desert. Hydrated wet juicy texting starts NOW I MEAN IT U LITTLE SCANDAL.

always scared to reveal too much because of fear of judgement, I think that's the reason most people text dry too
Nah don't be because you might find a person just like you
