Dry Text Reply Helper
Dry texts are tricky because they are replies, but they do not give you much to work with. The move is usually one better hook, not five more questions.
Short answer
KnoKno helps you reply to dry texts with one specific hook, an easy choice, or a clean boundary when the pattern is already low effort.
Dry text patterns
| Message pattern | What it may mean | KnoKno move |
|---|---|---|
| Dry once | Busy, awkward, or distracted | Send one better question |
| Dry every time | Low effort or low interest | Stop over-investing |
| Dry but makes plans | Bad texter, maybe interested | Move toward the plan |
| Dry and avoids plans | Weak interest | Ask once, then step back |

Boundary
I am getting low-effort energy here, so I will leave it with you.
