When you first message someone, what do you usually say in the message? What works, what doesn't?

I don't message someone unless I already have something specific to say to them.

If there is something that you "usually say" it is going to sound like a form letter.

Don't message someone until you have something to say and you won't need to ask questions like that.

The seventh thing that comes to mind? Hmm...

I passed a telephone pole the other day with a sign on it that said "Reward! Lost $50. if found, just keep it."

I usually just say whatever comes to mind. I read their profiles and if they sound interesting I bring that up. Though, I usually keep it light and simple. One of those things of (taking your profile as example):

Heya :) Saw your profile and you seem pretty cool. Computers, chess and video games huh? lol Right up my alley! What sort of video games? I've been playing CoD4 lately.




Then I just go about my day and wait for them to reply or not to reply lmao Whatever the case may be happy

It depends on my mood...sometimes I am so into writing, and other times I draw a blank.indifferent

Of course it depends on the girl...some women will be creeped out by a long message while others will be flattered that the guy took the time and effort to write something without the words, "sex sex sex"...

I find the long message approach to be more effective, as long as I can get my thoughts out clearly and don't ramble. Women have actually been intrigued enough to check out my profile that way...haven't gotten any results at all with the brief 5-6 word introduction.huh
