As a lifestyle author, I often get asked what I’m up to. And when it comes from someone I’m interested in, I like to respond in a fun, flirty way. So here are some of my favorite flirty comebacks when I’m asked “what are you up to?“.

Whether via text, messaging, or in person, these playful replies show that I’m down for some lighthearted banter. They also open up the conversation for more back-and-forth. Because a flirty response invites the other person to volley back with their own witty remark.

How to Keep The Banter Going

Starting the flirty repartee is step one. But keeping it flowing is key for a true connections.

Here’s how to keep playful banter alive after your witty “What are you up to” comeback:

Ask questions about their response to your reply.

For example, if you joked about eating cereal from the box, they might quip “Save some for me!” You could then ask what their favorite cereal is.

Compliment their comeback if it made you smile. Everyone loves an ego boost!

Challenge them to a playful duel like thumb war or rock paper scissors next time you meet.

Suggest a silly or adventurous date idea based on your flirty exchange, like going hunting for aliens or crafting friendship bracelets.

Get increasingly cheeky! See if you can make them blush. Two can play the bold game!

When to Use Playful vs. Genuine Responses

While flirty responses are fabulous for lighthearted chatter, sometimes a thoughtful reply is more fitting:

Assess the vibe before crafting your response. A sweet or straight answer can forge an deeper connection when the mood feels right.
