When a girl starts getting all ‘lovely-dovey’ over text and sends long detailed messages, in the past I have embarrassingly kinda mirrored this hahah, I hate to admit it but I’ve done it. Like when the girl starts finishing messages with 'x' or saying after meet ups how much they enjoyed it/can't wait to see you. How do you not let it go to your head? Plus what’s a good way of responding without coming across cold? The other thing is how to not answer deep and personal questions as I think this has removed the ‘mystery’ about me which is a card I think I need to hold on to. Like for example a girl might start asking about your past relationships- why/how they ended, how long they were etc. Is it best not to answer these directly? I sometimes say I prefer to talk in person haha

Thanks

Just respond to the texts in a short & endearing way. She should know you love her back by how you act, not what you say. Words aren’t worth much after all. As far as keeping your mystery factor, what I usually do when asked these questions, I’ll give a vague answer or deflect it and turn it right back on her, or cut the thread. You don’t want to build a lot of rapport over text, you wanna save that for the date. Even in person, if a girl starts probing me about my past relationships I’ll give a short answer and change the subject. I personally like to know more about others than they know about me.

I don't think there's anything wrong with mirroring her language and thoughts, especially if you feel the same way. And if you don't feel the same way, you should mirror her language and thoughts anyways. This is how you build a connection with a girl. :)

Definitely push for a meet.
