We love waking up to a good morning text (as long as it doesn't wake us up). But, if you're like us when you wake up, you might be feeling a little fuzzy-headed until you get some caffeine, so you don't know quite how to respond.

It's okay. You can stay groggy a little longer. Whether you're just getting to know someone or have been dating for a while, we have all kinds of inspiration for what to say after a good morning text. So even if you're sleepy, your text game will sound like you're bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. 

What to Say After Good Morning Text

You'll probably respond differently to a good morning text from someone you just met (or have yet to meet) than you would to your significant other, whom you've been with for years. So choose any of the following (or use it to inspire you to come up with your own reply) based on how well you know the person you're responding to.
