Tips for Starting an Online
Dating Conversation

Make it personal.

While current events can be good conversation topics, you're more likely to get a positive response if the comment is personal about him/her.



Be unique!

Don't start a conversation online with open-ended introductions that don't stand out. Stay away from phrases like "Hey there", "How are you doing", or cheesy pickup lines. Think of a bar scene, and a crowd of multiple potential suitors vying for the same woman/man's attention. You want the person to remember you because first impressions are everything.



Don't be shy!

If you like someone, be the first to reach out! Don't miss an opportunity to get to know someone you're interested in.
