"Hi all, first time messaging here in the forum and I'm quite new to all this so please excuse me if I get things a little wrong. Just finding my feet. I'm just wondering how some people write their first message. I mean, do you just come straight out with what you want to do, I find that a little rude, and as a single guy most probably blocked or ignored. I kind of go for the polite hi, how are you, you look amazing, chit chat kind of message but don't seem to be getting anywhere, just wondering if I'm sounding a bit wet or if needed to be a bit more risque? What's a good first message?" This will never work. Here is my garenteed formula. Either go with just "hi" But preferably "want to meet now?" Or "what are you into" The messaging isn't that important along as you include as many cock pics as possible. Follow it up with a friend request If you don't get a reply resent the same message. Repeatedly! | |||
| |||
"Don't make the mistake so many guys make, which is Being crude! Instant delete from me." No I can't do that, I find that so disrespectful. I always attach a face photo, And be polite. I do try to be funny, well I laugh but I don't think that counts? | |||

Most won’t get a response, but that’s just life, everyone isn’t for everyone.
Good luck out there OP

"Hey OP. Just send a message that is authentically you, there’s no one size fits all or magic formula. Don’t over think or over analyse. I now just say whatever comes to me after reading their profile, it’s usually a terrible attempt at humour

"Dear OP, you read their profile, glean whatever you find genuinely interesting from their descriptions and perhaps from their photos (not just photos of the person but anything in the backdrop which may give an insight to them). Look for whatever piques your interest - it could be a reference to something that they are interested in or they have written, or something witty and humourous perhaps. Be lighthearted, add a little humour, make your opening gambit stand out, refer to something from their profile and create a focus of discussion from it. Ensure your message isn't passive and 'closed' otherwise it may not warrant a response, instead make it open-ended. If however you don't want to ask a general question then give them an impetus to acknowledge something you've inferred: for example, something like - "I noticed the Carnations in your photo. They rarely thrive in the shade, wouldn't you agree?". Or something like that anyway. And then...be ready for disappointment. No matter how handcrafted your message is it will linger amongst the 100s in their inboxes. As it's often said it's a numbers game on here; the imbalance of men versus women. 🩶" · ...adding to this from my earlier musings, I agree with the others: check out the socials and the clubs. 🌿 | |||

"One that shows you have read their profile, explains what you have to offer that matches what they are looking for and what it is you are looking for. Not a cock photo. " Excatly this | |||

"Thanks everyone. Great advice. I'm learning fast. I'm not too far out, I can never be rude or disrespectful. There's a nother question coming out of all that... How on earth does a single chap get to go to a club?" Easy just turn up. Have a look on the club section for the event nights. Mrs | |||

Mrs " Oooo I thought there would be a list of hoops to jump through or have to go with a partner. I understand the single guy thing and they have to be careful. I'm going to have a look now... Thankyou! xxx | |||

It all comes down to the person’s profile, and the vibe it gives off, as to how I make an approach;
If it’s the usual “I’m a xxx year old woman looking for men”……I just don’t bother. They can’t be bothered to fill out a description of themselves, so they’re probably a fake.
If their profile is full of negativity, as in; “I don’t want this, I’m not looking for that, I only meet in clubs, face pic with first message or no reply, many hoops on firs to jump through before I even consider putting you on the final 100 hotlist, blah blah blah…..” just don’t waste your time 
Filter the wheat from the chaff, blocking unsavoury profiles means your local updates are only filled with potential matches! There’s plenty of nice, normal, decent ladies in here, you will start to recognise the signs, and then the best piece of advice I can give is: only ever message those you feel a genuine possible match with.
Also; just be yourself in what you say  | |||
"Thanks everyone. Great advice. I'm learning fast. I'm not too far out, I can never be rude or disrespectful. There's a nother question coming out of all that... How on earth does a single chap get to go to a club?" Forget clubs as a single guy Always go with a female friend, or have a meet lined up inside for when you get there. You can thank me later on that score | |||

"Thanks everyone. Great advice. I'm learning fast. I'm not too far out, I can never be rude or disrespectful. There's a nother question coming out of all that... How on earth does a single chap get to go to a club?" Pay your money and enter the den of iniquity it may be more than you wanted to pay you may see it as unfair but once inside you'll see why . | |||
"Thanks everyone. Great advice. I'm learning fast. I'm not too far out, I can never be rude or disrespectful. There's a nother question coming out of all that... How on earth does a single chap get to go to a club?" First some will say go to a club some say waste of time. That really depends on the individual, some guys thrive, some don't. Personally I prefer the club environment as a lone male (i started as a single guy and go clubs alone occasionally). I prefer and find better results with first introductions being in person. In person my nature and personality is communicated far better. Likewise their nature and reactions are communicate far better. So some of us find we thrive far better in the live world than the online world. Some guys clearly don't. I think you may have an idea of what would work best but you'll never fully know unless you try. As others have said its really a simple as just going. But do your research. Picking the right club/night and knowing all the practical information you need can really help make a great night. Also have you considered an organised social event? Mr | |||

"The only ‘good’ first message, is the one which gets replied to…. "· With all things said and done...it more or less comes down to this. ✔️ | |||

"So, first of all, select your target(s) carefully. Don't message any woman who's got an obvious attitude problem. If her profile is basically a list of rules, demanding, attention-seeking or sexist, then don't waste your time - let the more desperate guys message her with shit messages. If the profile is new, has face pics and/or very sexual content or wording, beware - it's probably fake, so don't bother. We all know that that's not how women work. If her profile has text like "msg for more info", "I dunno what 2 rite", "fill in later", "message me and find out", "horny girl looking for fun", etc, then don't bother. If she can't spend 5 mins writing a profile, she's probably not going to be interested in the time-consuming process of messaging you back and to. Anyway, so to message, I employ about three different methods, all of which work on different people at different times. Generally though, have a read through the profile and look for unique or interesting things in it. When you message her, bring that unique thing up. As well as that, say something that's different, that she's probably never read before that ends with a question. So for example; "I'm hungry and your cakes look super tasty! Have you been baking long? I used to make cakes with my grandmother. I remember the smells, oh, and a time when I dropped eggs all over the floor. Even after she cleaned it, our shoes would get stuck to the floor for days after! She was fuming. Anyway, enough about me, what accidents did you have when you were a child?" Something like that that really gets her beautiful female brain working with a really imaginative question at the end. The first few words should be something bizarre. Avoid "hello" because she's going to get hundreds of those fuckers, and end it with a question, always. Now, sometimes, because women are overwhelmed with messages, they can genuinely miss your quality message. It's ok to message again some time later but do not message a third time. Don't be afraid to block ignorers. This serves as an unfortunate reminder to women that if they want quality, they need to take action before it's too late. Remember that you are special, you're crafting special messages, and these are in demand. If she wants quality, she must act. This also prevents them from coming up in your news list thing and removes the temptation for you to message them again. Good luck Mr!" Excellent advise, unlike the prick further up | |||

I assume this translates as you fuck now! I've added the exclamation mark as I'm still unsure as to whether it was a question, a demand or an order.
Treat an opening message as if it were a job application. Would you send an application with just U EMPLY NW on it? Of course not. Just a brief outline of what's lead you to message them in the first place. follow this with a little about yourself and what you can bring to the party so to speak. Not a huge essay, just a brief intro. A face pic is always a good bonus (never ask for the persons face pic if you've not sent yours with the message). Avoid adding a pic of your cock (or, as sometimes happens, a random pic of someone elses that you've nicked off a Brazillian karaoke themed porn site).
Be honest, open, friendly and accepting. That's the way forward | |||
"One message I received is both the worst and funniest rolled into one. It was brief but impatient and employed the use of "text speak" which I personally dislike immensely. Only five letters all in capitals. "U FK NW"
