Decode men's confusing texts thanks to new site

DOES HE LIKE ME?! In an age where girls try to gauge the depth of a guy's feelings from texts like "Hi" and "Wazzup", an increasing number have turned to the internet for answers. Since its launch in October, HeTexted has been receiving women's perplexed questions about texts, in which users can vote "He's into you" or "He's not into you." The site has had between 25,000 and 40,000 visitors per day.


Here's one of my favorite examples:


HE TEXTED ME THIS...

I kissed this guy at a party about a week ago and this is the first I've heard from him...

...SO NOW I'M WONDERING?

If this is really sweet or massively creepy.

Although it's really fun laughing at the more clueless questions, humiliation is not the objective on HeTexted. All submissions are anonymous and the site is heavily monitored by its co-founder, Carrie Henderson-McDermott, 26. She said: "We really do want to help people. Women twice divorced who are returning to the dating field who never had to do texting before need this help."

Instead of badgering your girlfriends about whether a guy is interested, you can ask a bro for advice. HeTexted has several "bros" to choose from, from married men to self-proclaimed douchebags.

The site has generated so much popularity that the founders are coming out with a book next year. What's more, in the next six to ten weeks they will be launching "SheTexted", a similar advice service for men. (Until then, check out The Simple Pick Up for how to avoid the friend zone.)
