Mostly for the ladies who do online dating, but what are the best intro messages you've ever received from a guy? I guess for the guys what would be the ones that seemed to work the best for you.
 
I own my own home and shave my nuts religiously. Form an orderly queue.
 
Best, or worst? lol

This was more of a cheesy pick-up line than an honest intro, but I gotta give it points for originality if nothing else.

"Do you have any black in you?"

"No."

"Want any?"

.....

It didn't work, but gave me a good laugh.

Hahahahaaa!!!!

And after that, [MENTION=13729]Free[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5511]ruji[/MENTION] became the best of friends.... :p
 
If a guy thought there was something he could say that would make a girl ignore everything else he said afterwards, and if those words could hide who he truly is, he doesn't think highly of their intelligence.

I'm not accusing anyone of anything. I just thought I'd put that out there for perspective.

BTW: I know it can be fun to talk about or share what guys have said. I'm not saying intros are stupid. I am only speaking for guys who seem to be obsessed with that one thing he can do to "score".

I was just going to post something similar. I'm sure everyone has different intentions with an intro, and the words used in that intro should reflect a person's intention. For instance, the line that was given to [MENTION=13729]Free[/MENTION] although humorous suggested that the guy approached her for one purpose only: booty.

I don't judge his actions whether he was having fun or was out for the booty, or both. I was only speaking to a particular mindset. Nothing I said was meant to apply to any particular situation of anyone who posted here.

SORRY FOR RUINING THE THREAD

*rage quit*

I don't think most intros should be taken too seriously. They're mostly baits to see whether someone will respond. It can be awkward for the person initiating so even something with good intentions can be misunderstood or seen negatively. A personal turn off was, "hey baby, beautiful, gorgeous, etc." or "you're cute and adorable." Any endearments turned me off, because I don't know anyone yet, so it's a bit too soon for those cutesy labels. And really, it just sounded childish, and too much like a pick up line you would use at a club.

Another turn off is ignoring what's said in the profile. Use things the person mentions to start a convo. Show that you're actually paying attention to who they are, not just that you think they're hot. An annoying habit is approaching each potential match as if you're a carbon copy of all women. Not every woman sees herself as a queen seeking a king, or wants to be somebody's "princess."

Someone who came on too heavily with a paragraph long bio was a bit too much. Starts to seem like a resume, rather than a genuine conversation. What was a huge turn on was light hearted sense of humor. After being on and off with these sites, it's seems most are just using these sites for hookups. And most matches, regardless of looks, have poor conversational skills. Most want to make very little effort and get instant booty. So, yeah, really depends on what you're looking for, where, and how.

Ask non-patronising questions.

The object at first contact is to put the person at ease. Encouraging self-disclosure, reinforced with positive feedback dissolves defensive barriers.

We're not talking about scoring here, we're just talking about getting a response at all. Women get so flooded with messages from guys on dating sites that unless you have something that stands out from the pack it can be virtually impossible to get a response.

Are you sure? Or could it be that your only choosing to engage with the guys that have so many options available to them they're not interested in devoting any meaningful time to just you? Most of the guys I know of on dating sites are looking for significantly more than just a hook up. It's just that they only seem to get responses from women who they consider only worthy of a hookup.

This is the problem that I see with so many of these sites is that because it's so easy to initiate contact any decent looking woman gets flooded with messages. The result is that she only bothers to respond to the handful of guys she really really likes. However these are the same 5-10 guys that every other girl really likes so those 5-10 guys get flooded with messages as well. As a result those guys have little reason to take any one of those women seriously since they can always find another equally attractive woman. I got one buddy that no exaggeration sleeps with about 3 different women per week from Tinder. Like seriously every girl on there he matches with them. The reality is he's kind of a hick, but he's got the rugged country boy looks that women just die for so he's just rolling in women. After about the fourth time he drops a C*** bomb on them they figure out he's an asshole and they move on, but it doesn't matter since there's a line of women ten miles long right behind her.

So when you say most guys are just looking for booty that's not really true at all. It's just that when you try and go for a guy who's out of your league he's only going to want booty, and since almost every guy you go for is out of your league, it only feels like they're all looking for booty.

Yes, I am sure, and I don't choose to engage with them. You're assuming something such as "I go looking for." I don't go out looking for anyone. I'm referring to those who've approached or initiated contact. I'm also pretty conservative. Also, don't presume to know things about someone you don't know well enough. That's probably something that would work against you.

Agree.

@invisible - funny enough, I prefer the "Hi" ones tbh. It's simple, no flowery words. Direct. Yeah, it seems boring but when someone overdoes the intro with fancy words, it makes it easier to question their intention.
