Hella Lost Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 I'm doing the online dating thing. Came across this girl who is legit gorgeous. We didn't match yet, but I followed her on instagram, and she followed back, she's has a lot of followers and not following many ppl, so i guess I'm lucky! I'm considering sliding through her DMs, but need a good opening liner. Would "I saw you on the dating site, & I just think you're beautiful. ;]" work? I want to stay away from lines like, "Hey cutie.."

I want to stay away from lines like, "Hey cutie.." What is a DM? If a girl is beautiful ...she doesn't want to be noticed for that. If a guy said that to me in my 20s it was bye bye. I wanted someone to notice characteristics and qualities about me and not what was bestowed upon me by virtue of genetic crossover and recombination. What qualities do you surmise based on her social media and OLD profile? Focus on those and make a sincere comment/compliment:) just no gushing ok?
VeveCakes Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 Skip to the point - say I find you intriguing and was wondering if you wanted to go out sometime? Don't pussy foot around. If she's that attractive messaging too much will put you further from a chance to date her. Go straight in. 1
ScienceGal Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 Can you see a profile in order to get more information about her? You should connect on more than a physical level by pointing out things you find interesting about her or things you have in common.

You should connect on more than a physical level by pointing out things you find interesting about her or things you have in common. Yeah, she has a bunch of photos from around the world, food & selfies. I really don't know what I can connect with her on than being attracted to her physically.
CTRL C Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 Yeah, she has a bunch of photos from around the world, food & selfies. I really don't know what I can connect with her on than being attracted to her physically. She likes to travel, may be adventurous (hiking, kayaking, snorkeling photos?). If the food pics are of her food then she likes to cook, if not they can give you an idea of her tastes. Reading the captions would also help with a little insight.
SoThatHappened Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 Make fun of her about anything you can find, in a sarcastic humorous way. If nothing else, it will set you apart from the hundreds of other d-bags who initially just wanted to tell her how "beautiful" she is, just like your first post. Show humor and confidence, but don't be a jerk. Make sarcastic fun of her in a way that may generate a response at least. Otherwise, you're just another dude drooling over a hot girl. 2
LostOnes05 Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 What do women want to hear? From men? 1) I already did it 2) Yes, sure honey (or any other variation) 3) I don't need to watch football this weekend, let's talk... 4) Of course we can go to your mother's house for Christmas 5) Beep <Credit card swipe> 6) Thank you This has been a Save-Your-Relationship Production.

I'm considering sliding through her DMs, but need a good opening liner. Would "I saw you on the dating site, & I just think you're beautiful. ;]" work? I want to stay away from lines like, "Hey cutie.." Best way to initiate a convo unless your a very attractive guy is with humor. The "hey, you seem interesting, I think we'd have a lot in common" is a waste of time. Say something that will get her to see you're probably fun and enjoyable to be around so it's worth a shot for her to reply. "I was going to start liking your photos from 88 weeks ago so you got the hint but figured saying hello this way would be a little classier. Hi, I'm ___" lol just a random idea 1
geronimo Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 Lol i would love to hear a fool proof line too, also have a girl on instagram that i wanna ask out, dont know what to say. Thought about saying what Qboro suggested (cuz i thought it was pretty jokes) but i feel like that may just come off as creepy.
Cappycorny Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 We want to hear that we are appreciated and loved for who we are. Our character, intelligence, the inside of us. Not just for having a nice figure or pretty face. Looks fade.
frigginlost Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 You can see her pictures she has posted on Instagram, right? .... Is every picture she posted of just her face? Nope. Look at *what* she is posting. Get a feel for who she is. Learn about her... Then mention something about it to her (something in common?). I dated a girl I met online. The line I used? Simple. She had a gorgeous picture up of herself. Behind her was a photobomb that she had no clue of. Every guy on there was talking about how beautiful she was, and I simply asked "why is the guy behind you playing with himself"? I got an immediate reply and we went for drinks a week later.
Author Hella Lost Posted December 17, 2015 Author Posted December 17, 2015 Well I sent her a msg this morning simply saying "Hey, I just gotta say, I think you're lovely." (my friends told me to say that) She didn't respond, but she has been liking my photos that I'm posting today. -__- So where do I go from here? PS: She just moved to here from Europe, and everything she posts is in another language. Could it be she doesn't understand me?!
