How do I know what to text back?
Start with what the other person actually said, what you want the reply to do, and the tone you want. Aftertext turns those choices into one sendable draft.
What To Text Back
For the moment you ask, what do I text back?
Paste what they sent, choose the lane, and get one reply that keeps the point without panic-texting.
Friend / Clarify / Direct
You paste
Them: I don't know, it just felt weird when you left early.
Aftertext reads
Acknowledge the feeling, clarify the intention, and avoid getting defensive.
You get
I get why it felt weird. I left because I was overwhelmed, not because I was upset with you.
