Saying something funny to a girl is a powerful method to start a conversation when you call or text her number.

It breaks the ice with a girl.

Girls love to laugh.

Laughing makes her feel good, which ingratiates you to her.

Tell her something funny to do with your past.

Give her a small anecdote about it and finish with asking her if she has had or witnessed an occurrence like that.

Talk about a harmless insecurity you have, and give her a funny anecdote about how that has hampered you in the past.

Listen, it is all about finding an avenue to make her laugh, and seeing whether you can draw a few parallels with her in relation to her own life experience.

This creates an instant connection.

Make her laugh and you have her attention.

Besides this, start a conversation by expanding on what you already know about her.

Think back to the conversation you had with her in person before you got her phone number.

The conversation didn’t last all that long.

Now that you got her number, expand on that conversation by referencing it.

Tell her that you were curious about this or that.

Ask her further questions about something that she mentioned during the conversation.

This is impactful on her, as it shows her that you were paying attention to the conversation.

Girls love guys who listen to what they have to say.

She feels as though he is interested in more than solely her outward appearance.

He was paying attention to what she had to say.

This wins you several brownie points in her book, opening a doorway to continue the conversation from where you left off.

Flirt with her.

Give her a compliment about an element that you observed about her on the day you met her and got her number.

That element was the outfit she was wearing, and how amazing she appeared in it.

In comparison to everyone else, she was a standout.

Beyond her appearance, compliment how much you loved her smile.

This tactic makes her feel good, as she recalls when she met you, impressed that you remember such details.

Impress her further by providing more details in relation to that first meeting.

She was wearing perfume on the day you met her and got her number.

Tell her that the scent of her perfume was familiar and make a guess on the name brand of the perfume she was wearing.

Use the name of a reputed name brand.

Chanel, for instance.

She sees this as a compliment and is compelled to not only give you the name of the perfume she was wearing, but compliment you in return.

Flirting works best when there is a give and take from either party.

Be lighthearted and fun when you contact her.

The more fun and lighthearted you seem, the likelier she wants to see you again.
