How you choose to respond when someone texts you ‘WYD’ really depends on how you feel about this person. You will respond differently if you like them, just want to be friends, or wish they’d leave you alone.

Here are some of the best funny, flirty, and witty responses to WYD for guys and girls.

Texting with a friend is probably easiest as you can just be yourself, and you don’t need to try too hard. Responses to WYD, when you’re in the friend zone, could include any of the following:

Tell them what you’re doing – watching Netflix, chilling, shopping, etc.

Keep your conversation going by sharing a funny picture. Use a meme from your collection if you know what will make them laugh. If you are unsure, try finding one that makes you laugh on Instagram or Facebook.

Keep it relaxed and throw the question back at them.

If you really don’t like the person, then you can either ignore the message or send them something that will stop the conversation and put them off.

When you don’t like the person or do not feel like talking, using this abrupt answer is a good way to end the conversation. By doing this, you can quickly move on and get on with your day.

By sending this, you show them you are unavailable or not interested in chatting.

It’s an excellent response when you want to ask your crush out or on a date. It gives that person a glimpse into your romantic intentions while letting them know you’re planning something.

Your crush will see you as a social individual by mentioning your group of friends.

For a more meaningful conversation, you can even elaborate on what you are actually doing.

It is a cute and thoughtful response that lets your crush/partner know you are thinking about them.

If you respond this way to a crush, it can give you some insight into their interests and show you whether you have similar tastes in television. If yes, you can discuss the show/movie. If it’s a no, you can use this opportunity to introduce them to something new or perhaps offer to watch it together.

The person will appreciate this sweet response if you’re already dating them. It shows that you care about the person and are always eager to be around them.

The tone of this response is relaxed and easy-going. This comes to good use when you randomly want to invite that person out. People don’t have much time to think about or get nervous when they receive last-minute invitations. You’ll probably get a yes to your impromptu invitation.

WYD can be short for a lot of things. When it comes to texts, though, it usually stands for “What you doing?” And if you’re looking for a sarcastic response to this question, you’ve come to the right place. Here are a few examples:

If someone texts you “what are you doing?” and you don’t really want to engage in small talk, you can reply with “ignoring you. why?” It’s a little sarcastic, but it gets the point across.

Plus, it might make them laugh. And if they’re not laughing, at least you’re not wasting your time with someone who doesn’t appreciate your sense of humor.

For starters, you could simply reply with “Leaving you on read. Why?” This is bound to throw them off and leave them feeling a bit embarrassed.

At the end of the day, it’s up to you how you want to deal with those pesky WYD texts. But whatever you do, don’t be afraid to be a little sarcastic. It’s sure to get the message across loud and clear.

It’s a casual way to brush them off without being too rude. And who knows, maybe they’ll actually take your advice and mind their own business for once. Either way, it’s a win-win situation.

This response is sure to let the person know that you are not interested in engaging with them. Another option is to simply ignore the text altogether. This will likely frustrate the person even more, but it is a perfectly valid response.

But remember, there are many ways to do so, and the most important thing is that you stay true to yourself.

This response is sure to get a laugh out of the person, and it will let them know that you are not interested in engaging in small talk. If they continue to press you for information, you can simply respond with “I’m busy.”

This short and concise answer will let them know that you do not have time for their questions. If they continue to text, you can always ignore their messages or block their number. Either way, you will never have to deal with their irritating questions again.

This succinct reply gets the point across without being too rude. It’s also a great way to shut down any further conversation. If the person texting you is persistent, you can always follow up with a more pointed response, such as “I’m busy avoiding people like you.” Either way, you’re sure to get a rise out of the person on the other end of the line.

If someone texts you “what you doing?” and you’re not in the mood to share, a great way to shut down the conversation is to reply with “Calculating the money you owe me.” This response is guaranteed to change the tone of the conversation, and it’s a great way to let the other person know that you’re not in the mood to talk.

The phrase “what you doing” is commonly used as a text message abbreviation for “what are you doing.” However, the acronym “WYD” can also be used sarcastically to indicate that the person asking the question is nosy or intrusive.

In this context, a good reply might be “finding a good psychiatrist for you.” This response implies that the person asking the question is crazy for wanting to know what someone else is up to

Instead of just saying “nothing,” try replying with “Do you want a list?” It’s short, sweet, and to the point. Plus, it’s sure to get a laugh out of your friend or family member. If they’re persistent, you can always follow up with a real list of everything you’re doing (or not doing). But chances are, they’ll get the hint and leave you alone.

If you’re someone who hates being bothered, or just enjoys having some alone time, then you’ll love this response. “Enjoying my personal space” is the perfect way to let someone know that you’re not interested in talking, without being too harsh. It’s also a great way to shut down a conversation that you don’t want to have.

If you’re like most parents, you’ve probably been asked this question a million times: “What are you doing?” It’s a perfectly innocent question, of course, but it can also be frustrating when you’re in the middle of something and don’t really want to stop and explain what you’re doing.

So what’s the best way to respond? Here are a few cool ways to answer the question without completely derailing your day:

1. Figuring out how to impress an intelligent kid like you.

2. Just trying to stay busy so I don’t get bored.

3. I’m thinking about all the things I need to do today.

4. Hoping that by the end of the day I can say I accomplished something.

5. Remembering what it was like to be a kid and have lots of energy.

6. Wishing I could go back to those carefree days.

7. Wondering how time flies by so quickly.

8. Realizing that I’m getting older and need to make the most of each day.

9. Hoping that today is a good day for all of us.

10. Smiling because I’m happy to see you.
