Kiss & Tell: How To Reconnect With Last Semester’s Hook Up

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UVM chapter.

Last semester, you had the perfect situation: one boy on lock who you were actually starting to like. You began to see him as something more than just a hook up, until BAM—it’s time for winter break. Unfortunately, you didn’t talk much during your time apart. You’re looking forward to seeing him when you get back to school, but how do you make it happen? Here are some tips to weaseling your way back into his life (in the most non-stalkerish way possible, of course).  

1.     Bring up a past inside joke

Text him something funny to remind him of what you guys had. This is a good way to reconnect without using the boring and oh so ambiguous “Hey what’s up”.

 

2.     Get in touch with his friends

If you two were in the same group of friends, it’s a good idea to reconnect with his guy friends as well. By doing so, you’ll get back on his radar. He’ll also be happy to hear that you get along with the people he values, which could be the start of him seeing you as more than just a hook up.

 

3.     Be direct

If all else fails, prove to him that you’re still interested by asking him to meet up. Most guys appreciate it when girls are straightforward. After all, if we don’t go for the things we want, how are we supposed to get them? Go ahead and make your move!
