What to Text After a Great First Kiss

The kiss happened and it was good. Now you're home staring at your phone. Keep it simple, keep it real, and don't overthink it.

warm

I'm home and I just need you to know — that kiss is going to live in my head for a while. You're something else.

direct

That was a really good kiss. I'm going to need another one soon.

I just got home and I'm still smiling. Thank you for such a lovely night.

When to Use This

Send this later that night or the next morning. You don't have to wait. If you had a great time and want them to know, say so. Overthinking the timing is the bigger risk.

What Not to Say

Don't write a novel about the kiss. Don't rank it against past kisses. Don't say "that was unexpected" if it was clearly mutual. Just be warm and express that you want to see them again.
