What does WYF mean in texting? Follow
WYF in texting usually means “Where You From?”
It’s a casual abbreviation that someone might ask in a flirty way to discover where you live or where you grew up. You might see it in dating app exchanges or in chats where two individuals are trying to get to know one another better.
For example, “Hey, I heard you’re new to the area. Wyf?”
In other contexts, as is the case with slang these days, WYF might be used to ask “What’s Your Favourite?” or “Who’s Your Favourite?”
In social media, WYF could be used in an online poll or a game in which followers will weigh in for the content creator.
For example, a DIY creator on TikTok might caption their video “I’m trying to pick a paint colour for my living room. Wyf?”
