What is The Virgo Man Texting Style?

His text messages are often light and laidback in nature. He’s not the type of person who will constantly blow up your phone.

He also prefers to have serious discussions in person. You won’t find many intense conversations happening via text with him.

One habit people don’t always like is his propensity for taking a long time to reply.

He doesn’t do this to be rude. He’s not mad at you. He’s just busy. He’ll reply to you when he’s free.

Overall, his texting style is similar to his speech patterns in person.

Light

Virgo doesn’t tend to enjoy having serious conversations over text. He prefers to keep things light.

He gets a reputation for being a serious person but he knows there is a time and place for certain types of conversations. He just doesn’t think an important discussion should be had over text.

This doesn’t mean all his text conversations are surface-level or shallow. He will talk to you extensively about a topic you’re both interested in. He’ll just keep the conversation light in tone.

If he does bring up something serious over text, it’s usually a last resort. This happens most often when he’s in a long-distance relationship or there’s an emergency that means he can’t talk to somebody in person.

He doesn’t like having emotional discussions to begin with so he really won’t want to have one via text. If you need to tell him something serious or important, ask to speak to him in person.

Sparse

You might have experience with a Virgo who rarely texts. He’ll send off a few messages, talk to you for a few minutes, and then disappear for weeks. Why is this?

Virgo’s texts aren’t always sparse. Usually, when his texts are few and far between there is a reason for it.

This might happen when he’s just getting to know somebody. If you two haven’t had a lot of interactions, it will be more difficult to get him to have lengthy conversations over text.

When a Virgo man goes silent, it also typically means he’s busy. He’s not the type of person who will respond to your message while he’s working or with someone else. He’ll wait until he’s free.

One of the more obvious signs a Virgo man likes you is that he will text you more often than usual. His messages will start being longer and he’ll send them more frequently.

He likely has loved ones who would describe him as a chatterbox. He still might have times where his texting is sparse with them but it won’t be as drastic.

Direct

Virgo doesn’t beat around the bush when he speaks. He says what he wants to say without any preamble.

The direct quality of Virgo’s texts (and his speech in general) can be difficult to adjust to for some people.

You might exchange greetings and some small talk with a person over text before asking them a favor. This might seem more polite to you. Virgo won’t do that. He’ll just ask what he needs to ask right off the bat.

Virgo doesn’t do this to be rude. He does it because he doesn’t want to waste your time (or his own). It’s faster to just ask for the favor, without any lead-up.

He’ll be direct when he needs to tell you something. If he needs to talk in person about a serious matter, he’ll tell you exactly what he needs to talk about. You won’t get any vague “we need to talk” texts from him.

Intelligent

Virgo’s intellect comes through in text the same way it does when you’re talking to him in person.

He’s well-spoken. This is often even more apparent in text. Why? Because he has more time to consider what he’s going to say.

He can type up his message and edit it before he sends it. He can’t do that in person. He can also fact-check, make sure he’s using a word correctly, and take some extra time to think before he replies.

If he’s a shy Virgo, it might be easier for him to have intellectual discussions over text. He might even be a Virgo who isn’t well-spoken in person but you’ll see that trait come out in his text messages.

If you need a conversation starter, you can always ask his opinion about a wide variety of topics. You can also ask him to explain something to you if you know it’s a subject he’s interested in.

Grammatical

Texting a Virgo can be annoying for some people because his texting style is more formal than what other people prefer.

You might not always use capitalization or proper punctuation in your texts. Maybe you use many different abbreviations or text-specific slang terms.

His text messages are likely going to have correct syntax the majority of the time. He capitalizes words that should be capitalized. He uses proper punctuation. He uses emojis and abbreviations sparingly.

This doesn’t mean the content of his texts is always formal. He’ll send you a joke or caption a meme while using perfect grammar. He’ll still be light and fun.

He might get annoyed when texting somebody whose style of texting is different from his own.

He won’t begrudge common abbreviations, as he knows most people use them. He will point it out if you constantly make the same spelling mistake, though.

He’ll have no problem pointing out spelling mistakes or grammatical errors in your texts. Be prepared for that.

Lowkey

Texting a Virgo man might seem stressful until you realize that he is a fairly lowkey person, at least when it comes to texting.

Contrary to popular belief, Virgo can be fun. He can be lighthearted and laidback.

He’s an earth sign so he craves stability and he may have trouble expressing himself. That doesn’t mean he’s stoic and serious 100% of the time.

He’s also not the type of person who will text you constantly. He doesn’t want to seem clingy. It stresses him out when people text him excessively so he won’t do that to others.

Will a Virgo man text you first? Absolutely. He won’t be the first one to text every time, though.

It’s a good idea to adopt a lowkey texting style when you’re speaking with him. Don’t send rapid-fire messages at all hours of the day.

If you’re bored and need to text with someone who will be readily available and talk your ear off, message a Gemini instead.

Replies

If a Virgo man is slow to respond, don’t take it personally. The reasons why Virgo men ignore your texts are plentiful and often have nothing at all to do with you.

He won’t respond to a message if he’s not available to have a conversation. If he’s working, he’s probably not even checking his phone to begin with.

He likes to be focused on one thing at a time. If he’s with a friend, he’s going to be focused on that friend. He won’t want to distract himself by trying to have two conversations at once.

He also likes to carefully consider his responses before he replies. If you ask a question and he doesn’t know the answer, he might go look it up first before responding.

Virgo also just drops off the face of the planet sometimes. He’s not constantly tuned in to social media or his phone. He’ll reply when he has the time and he’s paying attention to his messages.

Back-and-Forth

Virgo likes to have a steady back-and-forth between the person he’s texting. If he asks a question, he’ll wait for your answer. If he’s typing up a long reply, he’ll expect you to wait and not interrupt him.

One of the signs a Virgo man likes you through texting can be seen when he is quick to reply and keeps up a long conversation. If there is a constant back-and-forth between you two, this is a good sign.

If you want to know how to tell if a Virgo man is interested in you, pay attention to how often he texts you.

It’s a good idea to switch who texts first if you two frequently message one another.

This doesn’t have to be a hard and fast rule. You don’t need to avoid sending a message just because you messaged first the last time. Just give him the chance to message first sometimes.

Doesn’t Double Text

This is the key to knowing how to communicate to a Virgo man via text. He won’t double text and he appreciates it when others don’t either.

If you have a long story to tell him, you might send it as a series of text messages. He’s more likely to type one long text.

He does this so you can easily see when he’s done telling the story. You can’t interrupt him with replies before he’s finished if he just sends one message.

If he asks a question that requires a quick response, he’s more likely to call you or just ask another person if you don’t reply right away. He won’t send multiple messages.
