Finding a match on Tinder can be tricky, but starting a conversation with them can be even harder. It’s easy to fall into the trap of sending a basic “Hey” or “What’s up?” that won’t yield any response. So, these are starters that will spark a conversation with your match. According to a new article by Bonobiology, here are ten icebreakers that are sure to get a response.
Responses:
- “Hello there! What brings you here?” I know sounds weird but this opens up the conversation in a friendly way that could come off as comical.
- “What do you like to do in your free time?” This question shows that you’re interested in their hobbies and what they like to do for fun, which can lead to a deeper conversation.
- “Are you a tea or a coffee person?” This is a lighthearted question that can lead to maybe a date in the future for either coffee or tea.
- “What do you prefer – cats or dogs?” This is a classic icebreaker that can help you determine if your match is a cat or dog person, which can tell you a lot about their personality. Let’s be honest you are either one or the other.
- “How would you rate me on a scale of 1-10?” Bold, yes. But it shows you have a sense of humor and a little bit of confidence, which can be attractive to some people and not others so it’s a 50/50 chance.
- “What made you swipe right on my profile?” This question shows that you’re interested in their thoughts and feelings, and maybe an interesting conversation.
- “How do you usually initiate a conversation?” This is maybe one of the most fun ones… if they are willing to have fun.
- “What attracts you most to a person – looks or personality?” This question is thought-provoking and can lead to a more substantial conversation about what people find important in a partner. Kind of like the dog-cat thing.
- “What’s your idea of an ideal partner?” This is deep but also you may learn if they are looking for the same things you are.
- “Would you rather go out or stay home?” This question is a favorite. Can you keep up with the other person or will they bore you. Ya gotta know before getting too deep!
Starting a conversation on Tinder doesn’t have to be difficult. With these ten, you can make your match laugh maybe initiate a meaningful conversation, and increase your chances of getting a response. Remember to keep it light and playful.
