Here’s a few examples of OLD openers that were successful and led to numbers and/or dates.

What works for me is opening with either a message that relates to their profile or I immediately propose a FUN date. I don’t like wasting my time on the apps so I keep the small talk to a minimum and escalate for a number. I’m not trying to be anyone’s pen pal.

I only use hinge because I value my time and I can choose what women I want to talk to rather than mindlessly swiping on tinder/bumble

Her hinge photo: She looks hot with a mischievous face Her hinge prompt: Something about planting seeds of chaos at the wrong time.

I open with: Definitely the face of someone who loves planting seeds of chaos

She replies: This is the face of innocence

A few messages later I get her number but don’t pursue anything because I’m busy

Her hinge photo: Nurse outfit

I open with: hey nurse I think I might need stitches

She replies: I got you

A few messages I get her number but I don’t pursue anything

Her hinge photo: Bikini Selfie in a mirror (water guns in the background)

I open with: hey you’re hot but are those water guns back there??

She replies: Yesssir

I get her number and might invite her Sunday for a day party I’m going to with my friends but I have another date planned for Saturday with someone else so I’m not really trying to get water gun girl out

Her hinge prompt: I’m looking for… someone who loves sports.

I open with: Have you been to a (local mlb team) baseball game this year?

She replies: Yes! We made plans to go to one but I had too many dates so I let this one go
