A bit of context, I’m in my early 30s and never been that much into texting. Even with my friends, my texts are always very matter of fact a-la “ok, see you on Tuesday”, I don’t like to chat if it’s not IRL.

When it comes to nudes, I’ve got many girls sending them but it’s usually in the context of her already being a GF, a plate or a fling. They send me nudes in order to spice up things, to keep me interested...

But lately, I’ve had girls sending those to me just barely after meeting them. With the last one, we meet at a party and there was almost no interaction, much less flirting. But she got my number and started texting me the next day, I barely responded the minimum just to be polite and BOOM, some nudes out of thin air. I made a witty remark trying not to seem too thirsty (I was more surprised than horny) and didn’t pay more attention to that. Today I woken up with new nudes of her. The thing is that, nudes apart, she isn’t escalating much or even flirting. It’s all a casual conversation where she’s sprinkling some photos on top of it.

Gotta admit this is mostly new territory for me. What’s does she think it’ll happen next and what does she want out of this? What’s the proper way to react? Should I play it cool and mostly ignore them or to the contrary, try to escalate as much as possible?
