The first message when dating

A good first message shows why you chose to contact this particular person. A specific detail, a brief thought about yourself and one question are enough.

Terms and prices for individual actions are available in the service.

An idea for getting acquainted

A structure you can make your own

Start with something you noticed in the profile: ‘I saw you are interested in...’. Add your own connection to the topic and an easy-to-answer question. You do not need to share your entire life story or come up with a dazzling joke. Before sending, check whether the text sounds like your usual speech. Sending identical lines to everyone rarely helps you get to know an individual.

  1. Find one detail the person chose to publish.
  2. Keep your opening to two or three sentences.
  3. Leave one clear question rather than a list.
In your own words

A place to start

Choose a relevant example and adapt it to your situation. Do not assume someone has interests they have not mentioned.

You have a seaside image. I like trips without a packed schedule. On holiday, do you tend to wander around or look for adventures?

Your line about choosing books to match your mood caught my attention. What story would you choose for a rainy weekend?

One small next step

Prepare your own version

A structure you can make your own: Choose one step and write down how you would like to suggest it.

Your text stays in this tab and is not sent to the server. It disappears when you close the page; save a file if you want to keep it.

What else is useful to know

Do I need to start with a compliment?

Not necessarily. Paying attention to interests and profile content can already be a warm opening. If you offer a compliment, make it appropriate and specific.

What is available in GuessWish?

GuessWish offers ways to meet people through visual choices, have conversations and chat with AI. These are separate formats. Check the interface for available features, terms and the prices of individual actions.

Can you guarantee a connection or a reply?

No. Interest, replies and willingness to meet depend on the other person. The examples on this page help you start a conversation but do not promise an outcome.
