Hi, yes, hello! Are you by any chance looking for an excuse to text your crush? Or maybe you’re just trying to make the conversation a little more flirty but in, like, a chill way? Or, hell, maybe you’re just looking for a smart, sexy way to let your person know you’re trying to smash without literally just saying, “Hey, I’m trying to smash.” For all of these situations and more, might we suggest sending a sexy meme?
In case you missed it, memes are basically a flirting secret weapon—a cheeky, low-key way of expressing some of your deepest (or, you know, horniest) feelings for someone without being too obvious. A meme lets you allude to how you really feel without straight up putting it in words yourself—all while making you seem effortlessly smart and witty and ~internety~. If that risky text seems a little *too* risky, test the waters with a flirty meme instead. Looking to strike up a convo with your crush but feeling a little shy? Hitting ’em with the old, “Lol, saw this and thought of you” is the perfect way to let them know they’re on your mind while keeping it casual. Texting sesh with your talking stage situationship hit a lull? Nothing a well-timed meme can’t fix!
What we’re saying is, never underestimate the power of a perfectly placed meme. They’re basically the twenty-first century language of love, if you will. But while there’s a meme for just about every situation—whether you’re going for subtly sexy, cute and flirty, or blatantly horny—you’re gonna wanna read the room before you hit send to make sure you’re sending the right memes to the right people at the right time. The person on the receiving end of your memes needs to understand your sense of humor in order to catch on to what you’re trying to express. They should also be relatively “online” if you’re sending something that feels trendier, like a screenshot of something that aired on TV recently, or a viral celeb moment.
And of course, make sure the meme you're sending is appropriate for the relationship you have with the recipient. By all means, shoot your shot, but should you be sending a super sexual meme to someone you just matched with on a dating app? Or a very in-your-feelsy one to someone you’ve been on one date with? Probably not! Context, as always, is key my friends.
The good news is, whether you and your long-term love have been swapping sexy memes since day one or you’re looking to wade into flirty territory with a new crush, the perfect meme is out there just waiting to make its way into your person’s DMs.
So, without further ado, here are 50 cute, sexy, flirty memes to send your boyfriend, girlfriend, crush, partner, whatever. Because sometimes the best way to say what’s in your heart is to let a meme say it for you.
