Most personality psychologists use tests that measure the “Big Five” personality traits—extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, emotional stability, and openness to experience. These five traits represent five categories of individual characteristics that tend to cluster together in people.

5. Send a GIF, meme or emoji.

If you’re texting them for the first time, make sure to capture their attention and make them see how witty, funny and interesting you are. So, if you want to learn how to start an interesting conversation, avoid texting phrases like: “What’s up?” “Nothing much,” “Wyd?” “Hbu?” and so on.
