How can you craft a fun reply to a “Wsg” text, especially if you’re introverted or unused to slang terms? Don’t worry: we’re here to help. This abbreviation is texting slang for "What's good," which means the same thing as "What's up?"[1]XResearch source Here, we'll show you all the possible ways to respond to "Wsg" and keep the conversation flowing smoothly between you and your texting partner!
Quick Ways to Respond to "WSG"

I'm good!" does the trick, followed by a "thank you" so they know you're happy to hear from them.
"I am! I appreciate you thinking of me 😊"
"I'm pretty good, thanks! And you?"

"Why? What have you heard?"

If you don’t have anything new to say or you don’t want to answer the question, a humorous reply allows you to remain mysterious without abruptly saying, "I’m not telling you."[4]X Expert Source John KeeganDating CoachExpert Interview Tack a cheeky emoji onto the end of your text to show the other person that you're not actually upset or put off by their question.
"What do YOU think is good? 😏"

Photos are a great way to connect with friends and family and let them peek into your life even when you're apart.[5]XResearch source When someone asks "what's good," you don't have to tell them—you can show them. Photos are a fun and engaging way to answer the question, from a picture of your cat to a funny billboard you walked past.

"Saw this poster and couldn't stop laughing! 😂"

"Everything! 🤩"
Download Article
Offer a bright, happy response when you're feeling on top of the world. It's natural to be on cloud nine when you get good news or do something extra fun. Share your happiness, whatever it might be, with a friend, family member, crush, or significant other who texts you a casual "wsg." They'll be happy to see your virtual excitement.
"Lots of things! Especially the awesome new haircut I got.”
"So much! I nailed my audition today!! 😎"

"Not me! I've had a bad day."
Download Article
Let close friends and partners know when you're upset or feeling down. If you're comfortable sending the person on the other end of the phone your negative thoughts, feel free to type out a glum response. However, be aware that they might ask you what's wrong from there, so only say "I'm not doing well" if you're in the mood to discuss it.
"Not much. 😫 I've definitely been better."
"Is anything good today?? Not in my world. 😞"

"The usual!"
Download Article
Use this brief response if you don't have anything new to report. It's okay if your day has been average and there's nothing "good" to tell your texting partner about. This reply tells them nothing is wrong, but nothing notable has happened either.
"Same old stuff, tbh."
"Nothing new! I'm kind of bored, actually. Let's chat!"
7
"Not much. Wbu?"
Download Article
You could turn the question back on your texting partner. This is a good response if you don't have much to say—either because it's been a slow day or because you don't want to talk about yourself. Follow up with "What about you?" or its texting abbreviation "Wbu?" to keep up the texting back-and-forth at the same time.[6]XResearch source
"Just chilling. What about you?"
"Nothing much. But you're on a trip today, right? Wsg with you??"

"Just counting down until the end of the day!"
Download Article
This reply is best used with a work friend when you've had a busy day. After all, a tough day at work can leave you staring at the clock, watching it slowly get closer to the end of the day—and your friends will probably feel the same way. Text this during a long day at work, and tell your friend about everything that made your day so exhausting.
"I'm just waiting for work to end. What a day!"
"Waiting for this week to be over. The weekend can't come soon enough!"
9
"Looking forward to tonight!"
Download Article
Use this response when you have fun plans with your texting partner. Show them that you can't wait to see them and have fun.[7]XResearch source Hype up your friend, crush, or significant other with a text that gets them just as excited as you are.
"I bet the concert tonight is pretty darn good! 😆 Can't wait!"
"Just about ready for our night out! I'll text you when I'm almost there. 😊"

"I heard there's a party later. Wanna go?"
Download Article
"What's good" can also mean "Is there anything fun happening?" If a friend or significant other texts you "wsg," you could use it to make plans with them. Suggest something fun you can do together, or offer a simple "Want to hang out?" in your reply text.
"I've been wanting to check out the new Batman. How does 8 PM sound?"
"Nothing on my end. Wanna do something fun together?"
11
"You are!"
Download Article
A fun, lighthearted answer will make the other person smile. This reply can optionally be either friendly or romantic, so you can use it for more than one texting partner. Whether you're messaging a friend, a crush, or an established significant other, answering "Wsg?" with "You are" is a cute way to make them feel good about themselves by reminding them how great they are.
"Easy: YOU! 😘"
"Plenty of things are good, but hearing from you is the BEST. 🥰"
Advertisement 12
"I'm always good when I hear from you!"
Download Article
Keep it flirty and sweet with a crush or significant other. This is a little more forward than the previous option, but it's still a kind and heartfelt way to show someone that they've made you smile by texting. Encourage them to keep checking up on you by showing them how thrilled you are to get their text.
"Getting your texts is always the best part of my day! 😍"
"I'm feeling way better after texting you! 😘"
13
"I recommend the pancakes!"
Download Article
Sometimes, "wsg" means "what's good there?" So, if you're trying to sell your friend on a brunch venue and they ask "what's good," give them a recommendation from the menu. Similarly, this could apply to many different places; a friend might ask "wsg" about a carnival, amusement park, theater, or city, for example.
Them: "Oh, you're in Chicago? Wsg??"
You: "Navy Pier is pretty cool! And the deep dish pizza is to DIE for. 😋"
