Hey guys,

I’ve been lurking through this sub for quite some time and I’ve got a question that keeps scratching the back of my head.

It feels to me that whenever I engage conversation with strangers in their DMs I lack a logical train of thought to maintain interest in the conversation.

I think this because most of the time they’ll not see/reply to my messages only after a couple hours, while updating stories.

Therefore I’m intrigued towards I should step up my game or not. For and opener i usually say something about their stories and afterwards I ask the basics: places they’ll like to go, hobbies, music genre, wanna go out to watch a sunset, etc.

What do you think?
