"wyd" is an opening, not a question. Answer in one line, then hand her something easy to reply to.

Short answerSay what you're actually doing in a few words, add one detail she can react to, and end with a light question or an invite. Skip "nm u?" because it gives her nothing to work with.

Nothing that beats texting you. What are you up to?

02 — Why it works

Why these work

Specific beats generic. "Cooking" is a dead end; "burned my risotto" invites a joke.
Ask back, lightly. A short question keeps it moving without an interview.
Match her energy. If she sent two words, don't send a paragraph.

03 — Avoid

What not to send

"nm u" or "chillin" with no detail.
A long reply to a two-letter text.
An immediate "wanna hang?" if you haven't talked much yet.

04 — Questions

Questions, answered

Does "wyd" mean she's interested?

Often it means she wants to talk and is leaving it to you. A specific reply tells you more than guessing.
