The Ho Text Gambit

Filed under Pick Up Lines and Routines
Here’s a little gambit that I picked up from my wingman Changes.
Actually, he DID this to me without even realizing it and I decided to turn it into a gambit…but credit still goes to him.
First a disclaimer: you have to be sure that woman has the right personality for this. Usually you want someone who is playful and fun, and who will OBVIOUSLY know that this is a joke. As long as you’ve demonstrated the right amount of playfulness during the sarge, she should realize you’re just messing with her. But sometimes some women will take things the wrong way, so be very, VERY fucking careful.
I find that the best place for this is (at the very least) after you’ve already #-closed her and spoken to her on the phone at least once after that. She should be comfortable with receiving texts from you and is more than likely to respond if you send one. The purpose of this is just to demonstrate that you are fun and unpredictable, and it ALWAYS seems to get a reaction if you calibrate it right.
The gambit is pretty simple:
1. Send her a text that just says “Ho.”
2. Then immediately send her another one that says “Did I just send you a text that said ‘Ho’?”
3a. If she responds with yes, then respond with “Good
”
3b. If she responds with anything else, send another text just saying “Ho.”, and then follow that up with “How about now?
”
3c. On the odd occasion, you might get a response like “Yup! That’s me!”, in which case you can respond with “Good. Just checking.
”
4. Then just stack forward to some more fun conversation, phone call, etc.
Words like “bitch”, “slut”, and “asshole” also work here, but you have to calibrate based on the culture and personality of the woman in question in order to make sure that she will immediately take the comment as a joke.
Play around with this and enjoy!
Happy sarging,
Prophet

Possible variation:
After sending Ho, wait for a response, and whatever it is, immediately continue with a text that reads like this:
“w would you like to go [insert something to do here]”
so that, effectively, she thinks she was responding to an unfinished text, thus, she feels she looks like shes attracted to you too much.
[a common text effect I've noticed with girls is that the two of you can stagger conversations, where one responds to a question and the other asks a question in a new arc, and the pattern continues going back and forth between the arc, violating the her-you-her-you-her response pattern. I figure this would be a way to make her feel like she looks like she just initiated that out of over-excitement, and leave you looking 'cool']
