There used to be a time when the wink was a good way to let someone know you were interested and if you got a return you would message.
But these days it’s seems the wink is obsolete. Even when sending or receiving a wink.
Too much demands for messages with x number of pictures.
Shame as a wink was pretty exciting to receive and a nice way to start engaging |

A wink has it's place, but just throwing them out without reading someone's bio is annoying.
We say for couples a wink is initial interest and if we like follow up with a message.
We also say for single guys, don't wink at all, just message, then same again if we are interested we will follow up with a message.
Unsolicited winks from single guys just tell us a few things
A) Don't read
B) Don't respect preferences |

I think a wink is a good way to show interest and then if you get one back it’s worth a message.
I only say worth as when I send a message they’re unique to that person/people and I like to put effort into it. If I did that with every profile where there’s some interest from my side, I’d be typing 24/7!
Winks make it easy to see if there’s mutual interest, if I get one back then I send a message.
It doesn’t happen all the time but if I get one without sending one first I then send a message. I think winks are great but I can see why people getting hundreds of messages and winks per day would prioritise messages and ignore winks. |
