FAQ
Questions about him texting first.
Does texting first mean he likes me?
It can be a positive sign. Consistent, engaged initiation paired with plans and follow-through is stronger evidence than one message.
What if I always text first?
Try leaving room for him to initiate. If the pattern stays one-sided, that imbalance is useful information.
Does it matter who texts first?
There is no rule you must follow. Over time, balanced effort usually tells you more than who sent one particular message.
Can I use the decoder without an account?
Yes. You can decode one exchange without an account. An account is only for context you choose to save.
