Dating Dialogue

How to Start a Conversation on a Dating App

The best opener usually proves you read the profile and gives the other person something easy to respond to.

Use profile details

Comment on a trip, hobby, prompt, or preference rather than opening with a generic compliment.

Ask one good question

Specific questions outperform broad ones because they reduce the effort needed to reply.

Skip gimmicks

Canned lines can work occasionally, but they do not teach you how to sustain a real conversation.
