Mentioning something you have in common helps, too. People aren’t interested in being told how ‘sexy’ they are by a complete stranger and those types of messages aren’t likely to lead to a good first conversation, if they lead to one at all. Based on OkCupid data, bad grammar is a turn off.
Likewise, how do you start an introduction on OkCupid?
Visit their profile and send a message
Once you’ve liked someone, you’ll see a “message” button on their profile. Click to compose an introductory message and send! Please note: You can only send one initial message, so make it a good one!
Subsequently, what is the first message to send a girl?
Your first message should make a simple introduction, express your interest in her profile, ask one or two long-game questions about things you share in common, and then simply sign-off with your name. A couple lines, or a paragraph or two is great.
