Adam Jordan demonstrating Diva Texting — confident, playful frame control in a real Facebook DM conversation with Rikki.

How to Be the Prize When Texting Women (Diva Texting Example – Facebook DM Breakdown)

November 14, 20257 min read

When it comes to texting women, most guys try to impress, over-explain, or chase.
They’re so worried about saying the right thing that they forget the real secret:
You’re the prize.

When you text like the prize, you automatically hold frame.
You don’t over-invest, you don’t seek approval — you lead the with unshakable confidence.

In this video, I break down a real conversation I had with a girl named Rikki that perfectly shows how this works. This entire interaction actually started from a simple Facebook DM — proving that even old social media connections can turn into real dates when you understand frame control.

It’s the origin of something I call Diva Texting — and once you understand it, women start chasing you.

Reconnecting Over Facebook DMs (Frame Control Starts Anywhere)

This entire conversation with Rikki actually began from a random Facebook DM — nothing fancy, no setup, no long backstory.

It had been years since we’d last talked, but with the right energy and frame control, even an old social media connection can turn into a new romantic spark.

Most guys underestimate how powerful a confident message through Facebook DMs can be when you lead with calm, playful energy instead of chasing validation.

The Opening Move — Frame Starts from the First Message

Although it had been 5+ years since here and I last spoke, Rikki and I had met in person previously, but only in a group atmosphere and never with any ‘romantic’ feelings. So this conversation came totally out of thin air— straight through a Facebook DM. And turned into magic.

Out of the blue, I hit her with one simple text:

“Rikki Johnson.”

No emojis. No explanation. Just her full name.

She instantly mirrored back:

“Adam Jordan.”

That one exchange is a great way to start out messaging a woman in a similar situation. Not coming in with any high-pressure questions, just subtly starting the conversation and seeing how she responds before I make my next move.

Then I followed up with:

“Rikki Jordan…”

Now I’d created a mini inside-joke — a flirty mix of our names — without ever saying “Hey, what’s up?” or “How have you been?”

That’s frame control.


You make her enter your frame (your view of the situation, your perspective) instead of auditioning for hers.

If you struggle to hold that same energy after getting her number, read my post on How to Text After a Date (So She Chases You) — it shows how to keep the same prize-frame energy alive once things move past the opener.

Bait Lines and Frame Control

Once the playfulness was rolling, I threw out one of my favorite bait lines:

“But I’m kindaa mad at you, Rikki.”

She quickly replied, curious:

“Mad at ME?? No Way”

That’s the point of a bait line — it pulls her in.
You’re not chasing attention; you’re inviting curiosity.

I kept the fun going:

“Yes you. You’re in the doghouse.”

Now she’s laughing, engaging, and emotionally reacting — all from one small line.
Most men would’ve gone factual (“How’ve you been?”) and started the conversation in such a predictable and 'boring' way.


But when you tease from a place of calm confidence, you become the one leading the energy.

The Turning Point — When She Asked Me Out

After some playful back-and-forth about 'why she is in the doghouse', I sent the line that shows that 'I am the Prize' but in a fun and playful way:

“For not asking me out yet. You haven’t even wined or dined me.”

That’s where frame does the heavy lifting.
I implied that she owed me a date — not the other way around.

It was a 'role-reversal' basically stating that I expect women to ask me out, which is backwards from how most male-female dynamics go. And that is DIFFERENT. Different is fun and interesting to women.

And guess what happened?

She replied:

Now she’s chasing.
I never begged for a plan, never tried to “convince” her.
I just stayed relaxed, confident, and a little difficult — because the prize always is.

When She Called Me a Diva

Later in the conversation, after a few more teasing lines, Rikki laughed and said:

“You’re such a diva.”

And she was absolutely right.

That’s where the concept of Diva Texting was born.

Forget about 'Diva' being a word for women... look behind that and think about the ENERGY of what it would mean if you as a man are coming off as a 'Diva' to the women you are communicating with.

Definition of Diva and how it relates to Prize Texting

A 'diva' is a celebrated, confident, high-status person (glamorous and successful) who knows their value and expects to be treated like it.

When a woman calls you a diva in that context, she’s admitting that she feels your status.
You’re not desperate or trying to impress her — you’re acting like someone she has to earn.

Diva texting definition to show confidence.


Even in the 'bad context' of the word diva, it shows you are "demanding or difficult to work with"... what does that sound like? It sounds like you are a CHALLENGE... which is extremely attractive to women.

Diva can mean "someone who behaves as if they are very special or important." What do we KNOW women want in a man? Confidence. So again... having this 'Diva' energy means you are texting in a way that is confident, a challenge, and showing you value yourself. That draws a woman in like a moth to a flame.

Diva Synonyms to understand Diva Texting


Even when you breakdown the synonyms and closely related terms for 'Diva'... think about the ENERGY you are exuding if a woman thinks of you in this same category of "Queen, Princess, Goddess, Prima donna, Superstar".

That’s the essence of Diva Texting:

  • Confident — you act like the prize, never the pursuer.

  • Playfully Challenging — you flirt through challenging humor and control the tone.

  • Selective — you decide who earns your time.

  • High-value — your texts reflect that you have options.

When men learn to text with this energy, women naturally invest more, flirt harder, and pursue stronger — because confidence is contagious.

The Principle — Confidence Over Compliance

Most guys think attraction is built by agreeing, complimenting, or escalating sexually.
But that’s compliance, not confidence.

Confidence is sending:

“Before you get a kiss, I gotta make sure you’re still the sweet Rikki I remember first.”

Instead of reacting to her playful “best case, we make out a little,” and getting all SIMPY and eager... I flipped the frame again.

That kept me in control of the flirtation and the pace — and that’s exactly why the dynamic stayed strong all the way through.

What Men Can Learn from Diva Texting

  • Frame creates desire.
    The one who leads the tone controls the attraction.

  • Playful confidence beats approval-seeking.
    Humor and mystery outperform compliments every time.

  • Don’t rush sexual validation.
    Make her earn escalation; that’s what keeps her engaged.

  • Diva energy = prize energy.
    When you text like a man who has options, she feels it immediately.

FAQs: How to Be the Prize When Texting Women

Q: What does “being the prize” actually mean?
A: It means leading with calm decisive confidence. You don’t chase approval — you set the tone that she follows.

Q: What is Diva Texting?
A: It’s a playful, confident texting style that flips the script. You embody high-status energy — fun, selective, and unbothered. By texting like a 'Diva' you are establishing the 'I'm the Prize' mindset which comes off as pure confidence to women.

Q: How do I practice frame control?
A: Use short, teasing lines that invite curiosity instead of over-explaining. Stay relaxed and don't let yourself 'slip into HER world' by agreeing with her on things that you don't actually agree with, and not adapting your life around her schedule.

Q: Should I ever match her energy if she’s distant?
A: You always want to have a 'lower' energy than the woman meaning you never want to seem MORE excited to talk to her than she is. So if a woman is seeming distant or cold, you stay distant and stoic. As soon as you start 'chasing' by pursuing her harder than she is pursuing you, the woman will RUN AWAY (mentally and emotionally) and she will lose any attraction you had built with her.
