Internet made it possible for us to get almost what we want in just a few clicks. Dating is one of them. Online dating has been preferred by many people these days because it's convenient and easy to do. It may be different from traditional or offline dating in some ways but it still works almost the same thing. It's a way of many to find that special someone. If you're unsure how to strike a conversation, here are some tips to help you out:
1. Discuss the 'About Me' section
Why would you look further if you can already start the conversation from the person's profile? Look for interesting facts about the person and talk about them. Don't just throw in questions, learn to listen well, and engage yourself in the conversation, giving your points-of-view.
2. Add some humor
If you're naturally a humorous person, this can be a good start for you and the other person. Humor makes each conversation lighter. It eases tension specially if it's the 1st time for these two people to converse. If, however, you think you have little or dry sense of humor then you might want to read more humor books or watch funny shows to bring out that funny side of you. Be careful when giving jokes as it may turn out to be awkward on your part or offensive for the other person.
3. Ask open-ended questions
One sure way of ending a conversation too quickly is asking closed-ended questions. These are questions that are often answered by yes or no. Steer away from this type of questions. You may start with topics that are safe to discuss with such as personal interests, hobbies, and more.
4. Discuss about current events
You don't have to know every minute detail of the event. You simply just have to know what's going around. If you're talking to a person whose home country is different from yours, then discussing current events would be a good chance to know where the person is coming from.
5. Plan your perfect date
You should only talk about this if both you and the other person are already in the stage of wanting to get to know each other better. Tell the other person how you wanted to spend the day with him/her. Exchanging ideas about your perfect date is a great way to make each other feel more at ease.
