Move over baseball, sexting is our new national pastime. With the rise of emojis, sexting has become even more enticing because you don't have to be a modern day Cyrano to get your point across. So much lust can be conveyed by those little images built right into your iPhone keyboard. You can't let your sexting game slip though or you might just find that your girl goes to someone else for digital romance. You can't just send your standard hearts and smiley faces or you'll end up just another unread message in her inbox. Next time you are sexting with a significant other, you need to make sure that you stand out. Lucky for you, the team at Complex Tech has decided to pass along our sexting successes to you so that you can continue to hit it digitally on the daily.

Okay, this is one you need to send BEFORE you start sexting, as a precaution.Many of our readers are well past their eighteenth birthday. In most states, you can't mess with girls who are under 18, even if you the only part of you that'stouching is your iMessage signals. Before you start working that keyboard, make sure that the next sound you hear won't be the police ringing your doorbell.

Now that you know your girl is good to go, tell her what your intentions are. Don't send that smiley-face-with-hearts-for-eyes bull. This isn't love, this is lust, and that means that the only thing on your mind right now is "XXX." Let her look deep into your emoji eyes and realize that it is about to get nasty.

Women are always concerned that you're going to violate sexual confidentiality. "Are you going to tell anyone else about this?" they always ask before anything remotely fun happens. Put her fears to rest immediately. This quiet monkey is your way of saying, "What happens on this iPhone stays on this iPhone."

We don't go in for the cutesy crap, either. Rainbows. Smiley faces. Cute animals. The worst. Why do we throw this emoji in there when we're trying to get erotic? Good question. You see, we looked at all the emojis and realized that this one has maximum cuteness factor. So, if the girl we're trying to sext is into puppies and stuffed animals and shit, we just throw this in up front to appease her, then we get down to business.

You see, even iPhone-based relationships are about compromise.

This is a not-so-subtle way to let her know that you would like her to add some video elements to her presentation. We particularly like this emoji because it's a creepy old-school home-video style camera like your uncle used to make amateur porn with. Sending her this emoji rather than that classy film camera emoji lets her know that you want a video, and you'd like it a little bit nasty.

Why would you deploy this 8-bit Space Invader knock-off? You go there because you are trying to invade her space, if you know what we mean.She is the final frontier and yourMillennium Falcon is about to blow up her Death Star. Even if your girl isn't a nerd, fantasizing about being taken from behind by Borg or Cylons, we bet she'll still appreciate a little science fiction role playing.

Every girl's naughty dream is to play the Sigourney Weaver to your Alien. Make it so.

No, you sick bastard. You aren't going to incorporate this into your pictorial sex fantasies. Who do you think we are? We're not that nasty. You're going to use this to let her know you have take a bathroom break without breaking the flow of your sexual dialogue.

Pro Tip: If you're sexting with two girls at once, and one erotic emoji conversationis going better than another, just send her one of these and get back to her in fifteen, twenty minutes... orhowever long it takes.

Yes, it looks like a dick. There are a number of vegetable-emojis-that-look-like-dick choices for you to pick from on the vast emoji keyboard, but this one takes the carrot cake. Though the carrot, the corn cob, and the "roasted sweet potato" are all somewhat phallic, this one looks most like a dick.

See, there we go again, doing all of the hard work for you. You're welcome.

That ghost looks crazy, right? Like it's capable of anything? Whenever we are trying to convey something freaky thatthe girl may not have seen before, we throw this emoji in as punctuation. It's our way of saying, "Oh yeah, you nasty." Because, what's freakier than a ghost with different sized eyes and its tongue sticking out?

Nothing. That's what.

This is a good way to let your lady know that you've been thoroughly satisfied without having to go into too much detail. She'll quickly learn that the Adorable Whale is the symbol of a job well done. Call her "Baby." Call her "Ishmael." Call her whatever you like. When you flash her the Adorable Whale, she'll know that the mission is accomplished and now it is time to go to bed, because you're tired, and those texts aren't unlimited.
