81 Flirty Texts to Send to That Special Someone

Flirting over text can go so very wrong. Between autocorrect fails, jokes that fall flat, and tones that miss the mark, the results can be disastrous. But done right, flirty texts can light a spark that ignites a whole romance—or stoke the flames of passion with a long-term partner.

So, how do you craft the perfect flirty text? It’s an art. The text has to be short enough to be read at a glance yet still get the right point across. Remember: You’re flirting, not confirming a dental appointment. Plus, you have to strike that balance between flirty and racy—think teasing the movie trailer but not spoiling the whole plot. Yes, there’s a time and a place for sexting, but for people looking to keep it light and fun, the following flirty texts are sure to hit the sweet spot. You can also try texting one of these Tinder pickup lines, flirty knock-knock jokes, cheesy pickup lines, or love quotes, depending on your mood.
