What to text when she says she's talking to other people
She mentioned other matches. Here's how to respond without looking desperate, threatened, or like you don't care.
When someone tells you they're talking to other people on the app, it usually means she's either testing your reaction or being transparent because things are getting real enough to warrant honesty. Either way, most guys overreact, disappear, or send something needy.
A good reply doesn't pretend you didn't hear it. It doesn't spiral into insecurity or distance. It acknowledges what she said, stays direct about what you want, and gives her a reason to keep talking to you instead of the others. The goal is to sound like someone worth her time, not someone scrambling to keep her attention.

Why she brought it up in the first place
Most people don't mention other matches unless something has shifted. Either you've been texting long enough that she feels you deserve to know, or she's worried you think this is exclusive when it isn't. Sometimes she's testing how secure you are. Sometimes she's giving you permission to keep your options open.
The mention itself isn't a rejection. It's information. Treat it like information, not a threat. When you react calmly and directly, you show her you're not desperate and you're not in your head about it. Both of those things make you more attractive.
Show you're not threatened and you have direction
Your reply needs to do two things at once. First, signal that you're unbothered by her dating others because you're confident enough in what you two have. This doesn't mean lying or pretending you don't care. It means being honest about the fact that you're focused on her. Second, make a light statement about your own position or intent. Not to compete, but to show you know what you want.
The tone should be straightforward, maybe a little playful. Short and clear beats long and explanatory. She said something real, so you say something real back. Then move forward.
When to reply and what happens if she goes quiet
Reply within an hour or two during normal waking hours. Any faster and you look like you were waiting for her message. Any slower and you're playing games, which defeats the point. Keep it brief so the conversation doesn't get heavy. Send it and move on to something else in your life.
If she doesn't reply for a day or more, don't follow up or overthink it. She heard you. If she comes back, great. If she doesn't, that tells you something too. The move here is to stop texting and see if she initiates next. If you don't hear from her within a few days, it's time to move on. You've said what you needed to say.
Why these replies fail
“Oh really? Who else are you talking to? I feel like I deserve to know if we're going to keep doing this”
Demanding information and framing it as something you're owed sounds controlling and insecure. It makes her defensive.
“Cool, I'm talking to other people too. Good luck out there”
Mirroring her statement and acting unbothered reads as cold or petty. She's not going to want to keep investing in you.
“okay, that's fine, no pressure. Whenever you're ready to focus on just us let me know. I'll be here”
This sounds needy and like you're waiting around for her to choose you. It puts all the power in her hands.
Common mistakes
- Getting defensive or asking who else she's talking to. This shows insecurity and puts her on guard.
- Pretending it doesn't matter and moving on without acknowledging it. She just gave you information for a reason.
- Immediately asking her to be exclusive or saying you want to see her more. Too much pressure too fast.
- Disappearing or taking longer than usual to reply. She'll read this as you being bothered or losing interest.
- Matching her tone exactly and saying 'cool, I'm talking to other people too.' This can backfire and push her away.
Questions people ask
- Should I tell her I'm also talking to other people?
- Only if it's true and relevant to the conversation. If you're not, don't lie. If you are, you can mention it casually, but keep it brief. The goal isn't to compete or make her jealous. It's to show you're not desperate.
- Does this mean she's not that interested in me?
- Not necessarily. People talk to multiple matches all the time, especially early on. Some mention it because they like you enough to be honest. Some mention it to gauge your reaction. What matters is what happens next. If she keeps texting you and makes plans, she's interested.
- How long should I wait to make plans after this conversation?
- Don't bring it up immediately after she mentions other people. Let a few normal messages happen first. Then suggest a specific plan like usual. If she's interested, she'll make time. If she's not, you'll know quickly.
- What if she asks if I'm talking to other people too?
- Answer honestly and keep it brief. If you're not, say so. If you are, say so. Then add something that shows you're focused on her. A simple follow-up like asking about her day or bringing up plans keeps momentum going.
