How to start a conversation with a guy on dating apps? Well, well, the world has finally seen enough. And considering women are doing everything, it is only natural that we need to initiate conversations as well.
I mean, men can just relax for now – gentlemen, we have got you covered. Either you guys have no clue about approaching women, or you are too creepy about how you talk to women. Rarely do I ever meet someone who knows how to strike the right balance – not too clingy or not too dissociated.
So, it was about time we eliminated the problem and took the reins over – now, you don’t have to worry about starting a conversation with a girl. Instead, just sit back and relax.
Ladies, we have gotta take over this aspect of living as well – if we are doing just about anything, then initiating a conversation with a man is no big deal.
But I don’t want you all to waste time trying to get him to like you back – instead, how about making him absolutely obsessed with just five messages? Yeah, they can’t see it coming at all – one moment he is just another match and the next moment, he can’t get enough of you.
It’s simple, really, and I’ll teach you how – just stay tuned!
How To Start A Conversation With A Guy On Dating Apps? 3 Golden Hacks To Get You Started!

So, let’s just cut to the chase: how to start a conversation with a guy on dating apps!
To be honest, men are simple, and if you are hot, you don’t have to try – one ‘hello’ will open all the doors for you. Also, beauty is subjective, and as long as men find you hot, you are going to have no difficulty talking to anyone.
Yeah, the online dating landscape is a shithole on most days but with my three golden hacks, you just need to hit him up with one text – and that’s literally all it takes!
So, stay tuned and check out my hacks – if they don’t work, you can always come back and confront me on a public forum (But I know they will work for sure unless you overuse them to creep out people).
1. Keep It Short And Simple
Men are simple – you don’t need to stalk a guy for hours to send them one message, wondering whether or not they will reply. If they have swiped you right, chances are they want to talk to you. In that case, you just need to approach them with a simple ‘hey,’ or ‘hello, what’s up?’
They are bound to respond. While doing so, please don’t send two to three messages one after the other – that literally spells out desperation in bold. So, it’s best to just send one confusing ‘hello,’ and leave it at that.
If a guy is really interested in you, they will reply, and the conversation will flow organically on its own. However, if he doesn’t reply, then he is just not that into you.
2. Mysterious Is Hot
This one might sound annoying and outdated, but it’s 100% true. My apologies if you think I am propagating outdated ‘techniques’ – because who really needs a man? They are just sources for entertainment.
Yes, yes, as a feminist for over two decades, I am all for equity! Having said that, this blog is about how to start a conversation with a guy on dating apps!
And you know what men like? The whole mysteriousness around a love interest – oh, she is pretty. Oh, she listens to this particular artist. Wow, her Instagram looks so aesthetic – she likes reading smut on weekdays and clubbing on weekends.
While everything sounds great, it also leads to curiosity. Remember, curiosity is born from mystery. Why would a guy feel like knowing you better when everything about your life is already on your dating app profile and social media?
So, if you are mysterious, then people will be curious about you – who is this girl? What does she like and, more importantly, what she doesn’t? You get the drift, right?
3. Play Innocent
If you are not ready to say ‘hi’ and start a conversation, you can always ask a question. No, don’t use prompts to start conversations for god’s sake! Men love some authenticity, ladies.
So, it’s simple, really! Just go through the guy’s profile and pick the most obvious things about him. However, you are not going to ask questions directly about these things. Instead, ask realistic, practical questions about issues related to those things. Trust me, you will stand out! Also, it will spark curiosity in the guy initially and then hit the relatability meter, making him want to speak with you more – it will make him think, ‘wow, we are so similar.’
For instance, if he has a dog in his DP and it’s obvious he is a dog parent, then everyone is already asking him about his pet. So, no point asking him about his pet or even throwing a few random compliments – it shows you are dying to talk to him.
Instead, how about asking him about his dog’s vet – ‘Hi, since we are located close to each other, and this might sound really weird, but can you tell me about your vet? I really need a new vet for my dog, and I can’t find someone in the area.’
This message is so much better than calling someone’s dog cute – of course, you can add a compliment here and there. But it is always safer to play innocent – I didn’t text you because I specifically wanted to talk to you. I texted you because we both have dogs and we are located close to each other.
Why Is It So Difficult To Start A Conversation?
Starting conversations, especially on dating apps, can get pretty difficult, even for the most extroverted person.
Moreover, there are multiple factors that can stop you from approaching people online, especially when you are attracted to them. In a majority of cases, fear of getting rejected makes things worse. Accompanied by social anxiety and absence of confidence, people often overthink the whole conversation even before it happens.
In addition, not knowing how to start a conversation with a guy or what exactly to say contributes significantly to their problem.
However, in my experience, I’ve always seen that being honest and authentic always helps – also, never give in too much. And if you fear rejection like me, you can always use a disguise for starting a conversation, like I explained above.
Ladies, these three golden hacks are game changers – go apply them and tell me for yourself in the comments below.
