Should I text them on their birthday?

Short answer

Yes, keep it warm and short

A birthday message is almost always welcome, whether you've been on a few dates or you're just talking. Keep it warm and short. If you're dating, a small plan or a treat for the next time you meet is a nice extra.

Why this happens

Birthdays are one of the easiest times to reach out: there's a clear reason, and it shows you paid attention.

It depends on

  • How well you know each other
  • Whether you're dating or just talking
  • Whether you'll see them soon

What you could send

  • Happy birthday! 🎉 Hope it's a great one.
  • Happy birthday! Drinks on me next time 🥂
  • Happy birthday 🎂 Have the best day!
