EXCLUSIVITY TEXTS

HOW TO HAVE THE SCARY

CONVERSATION THE RIGHT WAY
AND BECOME EXCLUSIVE WITH THE
PERSON YOU’RE SEEING
EXCLUSIVITY TEXTS
When you’ve been seeing someone for a while, you can reach a point where
you feel like you’re someone’s girlfriend/boyfriend in every way but the title.

You see each other often, talk every day . . . maybe you’ve even met their
friends. And at this stage, it’s perfectly normal to crave clarity on where you
stand with them. But that’s not always easy, and oftentimes not knowing how
to even broach the subject stops us from doing it.

You worry about doing it wrong and coming across as desperate, intense, or
like you’re moving things too fast.

Not to mention, what are you supposed to do if they say they’re not ready?
Are you ready to lose them forever? Or should you be willing to wait?

The reality is that everything in love worth having comes with a level of risk.
No healthy relationship develops without a few courageous conversations
along the way.

But how you broach the subject matters, so if you’ve been dating someone
for a while now and you want to become exclusive with them, here are some
simple ways you can do it via text (or in person).

Text 1:
This is a simple line you can use to prompt the exclusivity conversation:

I like you and I’m having a lot of fun with you

. . . I guess I want to know, though, if we’re
on the same page about what we’re saying
‘no’ to while we’re saying ‘yes’ to this.
YOU

Text 2:
The second is another approach you can use to define the relationship in a
semi-casual and playful way:

So it just occurred to me that when

people ask me out, I have no idea
what to tell them.
YOU

Someone just asked you out? THEM

That wasn’t really the point, and it wouldn’t

be important even if they had. But I know I like
you, and I don’t want to disrespect what we
have if this is going somewhere.
YOU

Text 3:
The third text is for when someone is blowing hot and cold, or coming in and
out of your life and leaving you confused:

Hey, do you wanna hang out

on Saturday? THEM

Hey, I’d love to see you, but I have to be open

:HIM
about something. When I don’t hear from you
for a while, it makes me confused about where
you and I stand. I enjoy spending time with
you, and for that reason, it would be a shame
to not see each other, but if you’re in a casual
place where you’re wanting to date multiple
people and stay open, then it might not be
such a good idea to hang out.
YOU
