What EXACTLY do I need to say on a dating website?

Post Reply New Topic

I'm having problems, 99.x% of my time I don't get a message reply on dating apps. Aren't you ideally supposed to get replies at a better rate? I'm a guy, so I know it's a little different for women of my kind. I have been told to be conversational and engaging, but how does it work? I need the inspiration. I can't awkwardly message her with the opener without a greeting. It doesn't make sense. I might be over-thinking things, though.

Don't even waste your time with online dating or dating apps. There are so many fake profiles and catfishing scams that the dating industry would barely exist without them.

You'd do best to channel your energy into finding local meetup groups of singles who enjoy some of the same things you enjoy.

Good luck in your search.

Seconded. Find people in your area through events and chance.
This has always worked for me. Sometimes disastrously, sometimes great.
Better than nothing happening at all.

In your first message don't just say "Hi" and "You are beautiful". It won't work.

Always comment something they wrote about themselves or find something interesting in their photo and make sure the massage contains a talk opening question. For example:

Hi. Where did you take the photo? The area seems familiar.
or:
Hi. I also like books. What titles would you recommend?

Keep it short. Don't write essays. They are a pain to reply to(although they might work well later in the game).

Dating websites are not that bad. I tried them before and the person I dated for a while is now my best friend. It didn't work out between us because there wasn't any physical attraction on my side, but we are compatible intellectually.

Talk a little bit about your family.

You are required to pay a fee for many dating sites, so don't waste your time.

Do not bother with Craig's List or similar websites because many people who have used them have claimed that they never receive a reply. Just try to make an effort to find someone who shares common interests as you.
