So what do you guys want to hear if a girl sends you a message first? What would help you start a conversation?

I don't think guys and girls are too far off when it comes to this, just try to be yourself and show that you're interested in getting to know someone. Ask questions, try to be unique, etc. I know when I was looking for someone, it was exhausting to always be the one sending the first message and coming up with new ways to try to get someone's attention. If you send the first message, you already have bonus points!

Read their profile, then make the first post about interests you know you already have in common. It's good to give each post something that prompts the other person to respond, to help prevent the conversation from stagnating.

U can start by making a comment on anything interesting about his profile. Maybe an interest u both share. Definitely ones it's his area of interest both of u will feel at ease and it picks up from there.

Just don't be a fool and sound ignorant about something obvious to him. For example once a girl opened to me with "oh my gosh you are from africa! what's it like?" in a ulta-blonde way as if the sun had bleached her brain clean of useful cells, out of sheer annoyance I highlighted the most bleak of details and barely anything else.



And please, make sure you actually HAVE read his profile and not just skimmed it :laugh: Other than that just be yourself, if he's the one no matter what you say he will respond well enough anyway so chillax.

G'day Miss,



My opinion is introduce yourself and talk about the most obvious thing you have in common in the next email after your introduction. Keep the first email to a simple "hello, I liked reading your profile", then ask one brief question to further the conversation and to see if there is interest on their end.



Keep the emails short and simple so you do not invest with your heart too early. You are just learning if you can communicate on each others level and if your views are close enough to befriend the person and really get to know them.

Cristalina, it's not just men. The feeling of sending a polite hello and an encouraging message being ignored is enough for me to question if they are Christian or not.



As for starting a conversation just say hello and express some interest in whatever you like about their profile, or even ask them to elaborate something.

hahaha a lot of guys on here (myself included at times) actually have the exact same problem mind you so you might be asking the wrong crowd.

I would like to see a person is interested in me. Look, I have written many things in profile and I`m sure anyone who can read and think, can say something about it. And even, as Christians we all have the Bible and God as our common subject.. so why not start there?

Okay so it's kinda sad when you're trying to talk to this other guy and he ends up not talking to you at all. And you're just thinking like why did he even viewed my profile for than?. Like if you're going to look at my profile then you better talk to me because it seems that they're only going to waste people time on here. :goofball:
