Incorporating your favorite topics into the conversation will make it easier to keep the conversation going because you’ll have a lot to say about them. You can even make a mental list of topics you like so you never run out of things to say. For example, you could text them something like “I’m watching an old Alfred Hitchcock movie right now, I love classic horror films.” or “I can’t wait for the Super Bowl next weekend, football is my life.” Use the joke to lighten up the conversation and make the other person feel more comfortable texting with you. Just make sure you know your audience; don’t send a crude joke to someone you’re just getting to know (unless they’ve told you they like that sort of thing). Try to keep your jokes light and fun. If you can't think of a joke to send, text them a funny meme or GIF instead. If they posted a funny article you liked on Facebook, mention it to them. If they shared a photo of their meal at a restaurant, ask them where they went to eat. Make sure the other person knows you’re friends on social media before you mention something they shared; you don’t want to come across as intrusive or creepy. Try to send something that’s recent and interesting. If you went on a hike recently and took some beautiful photos at the peak, send a couple of them to the other person. If you have a video of your dog doing something silly, send it to them. Use the photo or video as a way to branch off in the conversation. Make sure you provide some context so they understand what you’re sending them. For example, if you send them a photo a painting you just finished, send them a text along with it that says something like “I just finished this watercolor painting, I’ve been working on it for three weeks. What do you think?”
