What Does G2B Mean in a Text?

G2B means "Go to Bed." The abbreviation G2B is commonly used as a statement to let someone know it's time to finish a conversation and go to sleep. However, if the same abbreviation is presented as a question, it actually means "Do you want to go to bed with me?". In the absence of a question mark, the context of the conversation should help to determine the senders meaning. For example:
  • Person 1: I'm tired.
  • Person 2: You should G2B.
  • (Here, G2B indicates advice from the sender that the recipient should go to sleep.)
  • Person 1: I really like you.
  • Person 2: We should G2B.
  • (Here, G2B indicates that the sender wishes to go to bed with the recipient.)

An Academic Look at G2B

The abbreviation G2B is typically used as an imperative (i.e., an order).

G2B is classified as an "internet slang term" by our team, as opposed to an initialism abbreviation or an acronym, because some of its characters are used as substitutes for letters. Initially, "slang terms" were introduced for brevity, but, particularly with the advent of predictive texting and on-screen keyboards, they are now mostly employed for fun. "Slang terms" differ from icons because they are not pictorial representations.
