Politeness, or why the first message is everything

Hello! For me, honestly, the first message is like a miniature first date. Only instead of coffee, there's the internet, and instead of a glance, there are words. So you open online dating sites for singles and see hundreds of profiles, but... someone writes "Hello." Just "Hello." That's it. It's like showing up to a meeting and silently waving your hand. A bit boring, right?

On relationship websites, I always notice that the most interesting conversations begin not with banal phrases, but with something lively; such original messages exude warmth, and it's palpable.

Because on online dating sites, we're not just looking for a partner, but for emotions—easiness, a smile, a spark. And politeness here isn't about a dry "hello," but about attention, kindness, and a little charm.

So, if you want a response, don't be afraid to be a little original. After all, sometimes one sincere "Hello, I'm interested in knowing what makes you happy" works better than a thousand templates.

It has always been about sincerity, trust, and the willingness to open your heart to another person. I don't dream abou...

  • When July feels more like fall than summer

    ID: 195
    I used to think July was supposed to be the happiest month of summer. Long sunny days, warm evenings, spontaneous walks, and that feeling that life slows down just enough for us to enjoy every moment. But this year, it feels like the rain has completely taken over. Almost every morning I wake up hoping to see blue skies, yet all I find are gray clouds and the sound of raindrops against my window.

  • Love doesn't ask for your location

    ID: 4189
    Have you ever wondered how many people are thinking about love at this very moment? Somewhere, someone is making coffee before work. Somewhere else, another person is looking out the window, hoping that today life will finally bring something special. For a long time, I believed that soulmates had to live nearby. But the older I become, the more I understand that the heart doesn't care about maps...
