2. “Who’s That Guy?!”
(The Jealous Text)
This SMS is frequently sent when a guy sees a lady he likes with another man, but he doesn’t know who that man is or how close they are.
However, the scenario is actually as follows;
- If you are familiar with her, she would have mentioned him if he were a significant person in her life.
- If you don’t know her well, it’s probably none of your business — if it was she would tell you.
There’s no point in sticking your nose into it.
When a question would naturally have an answer, why ask for it?
If you’re genuinely inquisitive about it and want to ask about it, either do it in person or leave it out of the conversation.
It would be much better to say something like, “I spotted you with someone and I didn’t want to trouble you,” which is a nice invitation for her to clarify who he was and what they were up to.
