3 VALUE BOMBS

1. Before you send that first message, get clear on your intention. Are you just looking to hook up again, or do you actually miss them and want another shot?
2. Skip talking about what you want at the start. In your first text, just check in with them and see how things are going.
3. Hold off on the sexting. Just because you’ve been intimate before doesn’t mean they’re ready to go there again.
