Article Subject: Good ice-breakers for online singles and personals - Part 12

Dr. Dato’s Brief:

«« Previous

We have covered several important steps towards writing the best ‘ice-breakers’ to use in messaging other online dating profiles. Always keep in mind what the reaction of the other person would be if he/she were to read what you have written. Although, it’s not a good idea to make conclusive remarks about the outcome because you never know event the weirdest of messages can be read also!

However, you can avoid the common mistakes made by men when it comes to creating the best ‘opening’ line with another online profile.

In summary, scan the profile of the person you want to message, pick out salient points of the profile such as the women’s interests, hobbies and then say something towards that effect. Also, if possible, introduce yourself with something like “how are you doing today”, “how are you” or even a simple “hello”.

Best of luck!
