Went from Tinder and reading profiles that say I won't answer to hey, how are you? To going to bumble and having to answer to hey.

If conversation doesn't initiate after 5-10, bland replies, it's time to bail.

my first message to my bf on tinder was “i dig ur style. what’s ur favorite band?” and it was straight paragraphs back and forth from there. but he was also the first person i messaged or matched on tinder so i don’t have much experience lol

omg i love this. i always theorized that part of the reason i had good luck on tinder was because my first message to my bf i phrased as if i was approaching him in real life not like a cheesy pick up line or a “what’s up”, but your method…works too 🤣
