You replied with one word

If a guy has been replying to your texts with one word then you might be wondering why and what it means about the way that he feels about you.

This post will show you a number of reasons why he might reply with one word and why other guys might do the same in the future.

So, what does it mean when a guy replies with one word? It might be a sign that he is not interested in you especially if he only does it with you and he shows signs of not being interested in person. He might also do it naturally in which case he still might be interested in you especially if he shows signs of attraction in person.

There are actually a number of reasons why a guy might reply with one word and there are a number of things that you can consider when trying to figure out why he does it.

Why a guy will reply with one word

Each of the different reasons why a guy will reply with one word will likely come with a number of clues in the way that he does it and the body language he shows in person.

Below, I will mention a number of reasons why a guy will reply with one word, the signs to look for and the things to consider.

He is not interested in you

The reason that he replies with one word could be that he is not interested in you.

This would be more likely if he only seems to text you with one word and not other people as well, he doesn’t ask or agree to hang out and if he doesn’t initiate the conversation.

If he is not interested in you then he might show distancing behaviors when he is around you such as:

• Avoiding eye contact
• Smiling only at the mouth
• Facing away from you
• Having tight lips around you
• Squinting
• Standing further away from you than he does with other people

He is seeing someone else

It could be a sign that he is seeing someone else.

This would be more likely if he used to text you more than one word in the past and if he used to show interest in you in person but he suddenly stopped. He would also be less likely to agree to hang out or to ask and he would be less likely to initiate any conversations.

He is busy

It could just be the case that he replies to your texts with one word because he is normally busy.

This would be more likely if he is not always unresponsive and if he also seems to do it with other people as well.

If he does do it because he gets busy a lot then it could still be the case that he is actually attracted to you.

If he is attracted to you then he might show signs of being attracted to you by doing things such as:

• Hold prolonged eye contact with you
• Adjust his appearance when he sees you
• Glance at you a lot
• Stand closer to you than he does with other people
• Point his feet at you when he is around you (people point their feet at people that they are attracted to)
• Get anxious when you are around other men
• Have dilated pupils when looking at you

There are more signs of attraction that he might show you. If you are unsure then a good ebook that I would recommend that will teach you how to better read body language and how to spot signs of attraction would be this one.

He is annoyed with you

The reason that he has been replying to your messages with one word might be that he is annoyed with you.

This would be more likely if he used to text you more and if he suddenly started doing it after something happened that would cause him to be annoyed with you.

If he is annoyed with you then he might show signs of being annoyed with you when he is around you by doing things such as:

• Squinting
• Facing away from you
• Having tight lips
• Standing further away from you
• Avoiding eye contact

He does it naturally

Many men do not like having conversations over text and it could be the case that he does it naturally.

This would be more likely if he also seems to do it with other people and if he shows similar body language around other people as he does with you.

If he does do it naturally then it could still be the case that he is attracted to you. If he is then it would be likely that he would show signs of being attracted to you when he is around you.

Consider how he reacts to seeing you

When trying to understand how he feels about you it would help to consider the way that he reacts to seeing you.

If he noticeably changes his body language, when he sees you, then it would be more likely that he has good or bad feelings about you.

If he reacts to seeing you by doing things such as:

• Adjusting his appearance
• Adjusting his posture
• Facing towards you (especially with the feet)
• Holding eye contact with you
• Moving closer to you

Then it would be more likely that he is attracted to you.

Whereas, if he reacts to seeing you by doing things such as:

• Squinting at you
• Tightening his lips
• Facing away from you
• Standing further away from you

Then it would be more likely that he is either not interested in you or he is annoyed with you.

Consider how he interacts with other people

It would also help to compare the way that he interacts with you with how he interacts with other people.

If he shows the same body language around you as he does with other people then it would be more likely that he texts people with short replies naturally.

Whereas, if he shows different body language around you than he does with other people then it would be more likely that he has particularly good or bad feelings about you depending on how he changes it.

Consider what he does text you

It would also be useful to consider the types of things that he does text you.

If he often texts you more positive things, he asks you questions often through messaging you and he agrees to hang out with you then it would be more likely that he is interested in you.

Whereas, if he takes a long time to reply, he gives you negative replies a lot and he does not agree to hang out then it would be much more likely that he is not interested in you.

Look for a number of body language signs

When considering what his body language might be showing it would help to look for a number of body language signs at the same time.

The reason for this is that a single body language sign can have many different meanings. This can make single body language signs unreliable on their own.

Whereas, if he shows multiple body language signs that all suggest the same thing then it would be more likely that he is showing them for that specific reason.

If you want to learn more about body language, a book I would recommend would be The Definitive Book of Body Language (on Amazon). It shows you how to interpret body language and understand people’s true intentions.

What do one-word text messages mean?

Honestly, it can mean many things.

She could be too busy to tell you more. It could be that your last text was difficult to answer. And it could mean she’s done with your shit.

Yup. More often than not, a one-word text is a negative sign.

But it doesn’t have to be.

So don’t jump to conclusions. It’s not good for your back or your relationship with that girl.

The only time you need to be worried is if you get one word replies a lot.

Then the odds are that you’re doing something wrong.

Find out what you’re doing wrong in the next tips.

#1: Take a breath

One of the most important things to do after you get a one-word text is to relax.

Take a chill pill, dude.

Because if you grab your phone with a heart full of rage, you’ll probably say something you’ll regret.

Something you can’t undo.

So don’t let your emotions get the better of you.

Take a deep breath and put the phone away.

Then do something fun or productive.

Go for a walk, hit the gym, or hang out with a friend.

And remember: her one-word reply may not mean anything.

#2: You’re texting her at the wrong time

Sometimes one word replies make a lot of sense.

You just caught her at the wrong time.

She’s working. Hanging out with friends. Or she’s done talking with you after you blew up her phone with text messages.

So timing is of the essence.

In this next 2-minute video, I tell you exactly what the best time is to text a girl.

#3: The best mindset to deal with one-word texts

One-word texts usually rattle us for two reasons.

• We like the other person so much that their lack of interest hurts
• We have a negative mindset

Story time!

One of the students from my TextGod Mentoring Program was at a girl’s house on a date when he saw something bad.

A trash can with two empty pizza boxes.

“Oh no…” he thought “she probably had a date yesterday and had sex with him!”

Now he felt like a cheap manwhore and the whole vibe of the date was ruined.

Let’s hit rewind.

Did the two empty pizza boxes mean she had a date?

How else could we interpret that?

• She’s had a couple pizzas by herself this week
• She had pizza with a platonic friend
• She’s into modern art and this is her latest art installation (probably not)

In short: there are plenty of innocent reasons why she has a trash can with two empty pizza boxes!

But because my student had a negative mindset, he assumed the worst and was a real Debbie Downer.

So be careful, my friend.

Don’t assume the worst. Instead, assume she likes you and all is good.

#4: How often does she send you one-word texts?

Don’t worry if you get a brief reply every now and then.

That’s normal.

And more importantly, it’s probably not a bad sign.

Does it happen more often?

Now it’s time to put on your thinking cap, because we may have found a pattern.

Check your convo. Do the one-word texts have anything in common?

Were they perhaps sent at the same time of day (work hours) or after you said something with a unique flavor (something she didn’t like)?

Look carefully.

Because if you’re the cause of her short replies, you have the power to stop them.

You just need to find out what you’re doing wrong.

Here are some questions to help you identify the problem:

• Was your text easy to reply to?
• Were you talking about the same subject for too long?
• Was the vibe of your text very different from the texts that came before?
• Did you ask a question out of necessity rather than curiosity?

• 19 Texting rules for guys to make her interested in you

#5: Ask more open-ended questions

A HUGE reason why people struggle with online dating is this.

They ask bad questions.

Closed questions.

And, of course, this zinger of a question.

What’s the trouble with asking these types of questions?

They lead to one-word answers.

Yes and no.

Sure, she could reply more.

But if you want a rich and fulfilling love life, you need to take responsibility and be proactive.

So start writing texts that lead to long and fun answers.

An easy way is to start asking open-ended questions.

Here are two articles to give you some inspiration:

• 100+ Tinder questions that actually work
• 70+ Questions to ask your crush over text

#6: Be clear in your tone of voice

If you don’t take care of your tone of voice, you’re torpedoing your love life.

Even the most innocent texts can turn off Tinder matches or start fights with your significant other.

Why?

Because unless you clarify the vibe of your text, she’ll interpret the text based on her mood and what she knows of you.

If she barely knows you and she’s in a foul mood, you can guarantee an ambiguous text will go down badly.

So don’t just type up a joke and think she’ll laugh.

Read your text out loud to yourself and ask yourself: “Can I interpret the text in any other way?”

If so, delete that mothatrucka and send it to hell.

Or rewrite the text in a way that it only has one clear meaning. Sometimes the answer is as simple as adding an emoji.

So drop the linguistic puzzles and be clear.

#7: Don’t be too hard-to-get

Playing hard-to-get definitely has its place in seduction.

But it usually backfires harder than a sumo wrestler’s backside on enchilada night.

Why?

Because most people do it wrong.

They’re not hard-to-get. They’re cold.

• They wait forever to text back
• They never ask questions
• And they never give compliments

What type of reaction do you think that type of behavior promotes?

MORE cold behavior in the shape of one-word answers.

So don’t be hard-to-get.

Be warm.

Which starts with smiling in your online dating photos. Click this link for 11 Tinder profile photo tips on how to triple your matches.

Anyway, being warm also means being friendly, genuine and curious in your text conversations.

• If someone actually says or does something you like, tell them.
• Don’t constantly hide behind jokes and witty remarks, be your relaxed self.
• Lastly, be interested in their opinions and who they are.

But be careful you don’t simp for her.

That’s a big turn off.

Check my next article for what I mean:

• 7 Signs you’re a simp over text message

#8: Stop selling yourself

If you’re a guy, you’re in trouble.

You see, when it comes to dating guys are born with a handicap.

A donger.

I’m joking, but only slightly.

Men are genetically wired to procreate and shoot babies into our better halves.

Although we can override that instinct, most dudes don’t even bother.

So the instant they see a pretty lady, they think: “I must have her!”

And all standards fly out the window.

The problem?

They’re already decided they want her and will do and say everything to get her.

Which often turns guys into a pushy car salesman.

Like so.

One simple text turned this guy into doggy listening to its master.

Which communicates to her:

“Man, I really like you. Here’s what I can do for you. Please say it’s enough and like me back.”

Not all girls will be turned off by this behavior.

But to many it’s a buzzkill.

Which they’ll show you by sending you one word texts.

#9: Why you’re getting one-word texts from your girlfriend or boyfriend

This is a serious topic which deserves a quick and serious answer.

First of all, remember that one-word texts aren’t an issue unless you’re getting them regularly.

Are one-word texts common for you?

Here’s what might be going on.

Warning, it’s not pretty:

You like her and the relationship a lot more than she currently likes you and the relationship.

Because you like her so much, you’re likely showering her with texts and affection.

And because she’s in need of some space, she’s being curt over text in the hope that you’ll take the hint.

Does that mean the relationship is over?

No.

Just that you and your partner CURRENTLY have different needs.

So slow down.

If she’s suffering from a you-overdose, you want to give her a little less and give her the opportunity to miss you.

Once your loving strangle-hold loosens, she’ll likely start typing in full sentences again.

#10: Stop typing like your uneducated

If this title didn’t trigger you, then you need to read this tip.

Did the title make you cringe? Great.

Now you know how she’s feeling.

Anyway, the title has a big grammar mistake that will shrivel up a girl’s eggs.

Not all girls will have such a strong reaction. But many of the good ones will.

You know, the girls with diplomas, big ambitions and next level tongue and throat skills. (The last point is made up, but I feel like it makes my point more convincing.)

So while you may scoff at grammar mistakes, others wince at them as if they were hearing the sound of nails on a chalkboard.

And it makes sense.

Proper grammar communicates that you’re smart and probably live the life of a smart dude.

Nice place. Decent job. And a big d- oggo for her to cuddle.

So get your grammar right.

It doesn’t cost much effort and the rewards are big.

What to text after a one-word text

One of the most effective ways to get a woman to open up to you over text is this.

Clickbait.

If you get it right, clickbait is irresistible.

As long as you choose the right topic to get the clicks.

Your safest bet is talking about her.

Why?

Because it’s her most favorite subject in the world.

So to get a good answer, hit her with some questions like this:

Or:

IRRESISTIBLE.

She won’t be able to stop herself from replying.

Enjoy.
