Men of OLD, what type of first message do you prefer to RECEIVE?
Post Body

I am often the one sending first messages to men but they vary… I’m just curious what types of messages men prefer receiving?? Is a simple “hey how are you?” Okay or do you prefer more detailed and longer? No matter what type of message i send, men have always said theyre surprised the girl messaged first…? So is anything ok??

Thanks for ur time!!

Comments

100% of the serious relationships I've had off of OLD, including my now-wife, started with a lot more than a "hi".  By that I mean five times.  I was never explicitly filtering for this, it's probably just a signal that she was pretty into me.

One wrote a few sentences about turning my Roomba (jokingly referenced in my profile) into an SNES.  Another made a comment like "wow I see why hinge recommended us" and embellished on that.  Another told me she wanted me to tie her up.

I don't know that the longer opener directly mattered, it was just a symptom.
