“Wow, you’re great at photography! I love the photos you posted of the night sky. ” “That outfit you’re wearing in your first pic is amazing! Did you make it yourself? I saw in your bio that you like to sew. ” Compliments work super well as an opening message too, since it tells the guy why you like him and why you chose to message him.
“All of your outfits look amazing! I can tell you put a lot of thought into them. ” “Your hair is so long, and it looks so healthy!! Please drop your haircare routine right now. ”
“You ran a marathon last year? That’s so impressive! I’m training for a half-marathon right now. ” “Love that photo of you at the chess tournament. I picked up chess last year and I haven’t been able to stop playing!”
“Normally I hate messaging guys on these apps, but you’re super fun to talk to. I feel like we could talk about anything. ” “You have such a lovely way of putting things into words that I never could. ”
“Whoa, that car in your second picture is so cool. Is that yours?” “Did you decorate your place yourself? I love the color coordination!”
“That pic of you on the hiking trail is great! Where is that?” “You look awesome in that first pic with your dog. What breed is he?”
“Your pictures are gorgeous! Your smile looks like it really lights up a room. ” “You look so handsome in that first picture. That shirt really makes your eyes pop. ”
“Greg, your plants look beautiful! I can tell you take great care of them. ” “Wow Rob, I’ve never seen someone so muscular! I bet you hit the gym every day. ”
To avoid being creepy, talk about his awesome physique or his looks as a whole instead of pointing out individual features. “You look so strong! Do you work out often?”
A great rule of thumb is to stick to 4 lines of text max. Anything over 4 lines, and you risk getting ignored.
Good use of emojis: “Omg, your dog is so cute! 😀” Bad use of emojis: “✨Omg!✨ Your 🐕 is 2️⃣ cute! ❤️💜🤍”
