I received a message from a young woman I have been dating and am very puzzled by it. This is what she texted: Ty:-}
Anybody understand what this means? We really like each other and it was a fun and friendly conversation. I have never seen anything quite like it. Maybe you can shed some light on it.

    Yep, I'd say "Thank You"
  • I think it Ty means Thank you and :} is a smiley face...... Maybe, I'm from NZ so could mean something totally different.

    Clearly, she wants you to stop texting her.

    If you knew Ty (he's on my friends list), this might not be out of the realm of reality lol.

    More seriously, it's thank you and a smile.

    This guy would have said 'Thanks'.

    I hate text speak. The closest I come is 'lol'.

    True, but we can agree that a guy would not say ty with some sort of smiley gibber jabber.

    It means she likes the way you thumb the buttons.



    When you send her texts.

    This chick would have said "Thanks," as well. But plenty of guys type TY.
