Why Texting Him Is Good For Your Health
Admit it: You’ve flirted with your co-worker over IM (Instant Messenger). Or maybe sent steamy texts on your cell that you’d never dare say in real life (“I want u 2 do that 2 me l8r”). Don’t be ashamed! Flirting is good for your health. Studies show that people who flirt more often have higher white blood cell counts, which strengthens your immune system and boosts your health. Plus, flirting just makes you feel good. But there are rules, cybergirl. Here are the Do’s of e-flirting.
Timing Is Everything: When flirting through texting (or “flexting” as we like to say), remember: Timing is everything. Late night Saturday texts probably give off a different vibe (“Let’s get it on”) than one on a Tuesday morning (“I’m innocently thinking about you”).

Check out Someecards.com that’ll make him appreciate your witty sense of humor. Our favorite under the Flirting category? “I’m going to be extremely busy until you e-mail me back.”
Picture This: It’s no surprise that men are visual creatures (they’d rather see you naked than hear about it). So surprise him by texting or emailing a self-portrait. (Just remember that those pictures can get forwarded to his entire address book faster than you can say, “But you promised!”).
