Maybe say something in passing awknowlegement, i.e. "I guess",
and then proceed the conversation topic to something else, or start teasing back in whatever way you see fit.
That's what I figure the best idea is anyways...

It does. Thank you for taking the time to share that. I seriously appreciate it.

As for where I stand, I guess it's a matter of not knowing what I can present as value, so maybe I just need to practice or brainstorm such things. I'm not genuinely huge on giving girls oral -- but making girls squirt would be a good goal.
I do understand the intrigue and open looping concept and how to do them, I just don't know how to identify things about myself or my life to use in such a way.

Im posting a screenshot of how small and simple I started an open loop of curiosity, which ultimately lead into sexual curiosity and then a super sexualization explosion -- great.

But the loop began as me being ambiguous about something about HER, not about me. It wasn't a DHV, so to speak, which is what I'm really after for more consistency.
Again, this is all in the context of text and online game specifically. Basically I am trying to understand and pinpoint DHV from and in texting alone.

I've noticed you have mentioned "DHV"ing in texting before as something very important...but haven't really had it laid out as far as what it actually is or how to properly do so. What specifically defines a text that is a DHV or how is it performed in practice, specifically, as a method?
