In a generation where ‘sliding into DMs’ is a popular connotation of expressing one’s interest in another, you’d be surprised to know how wrong it can go at times.
Conversing via DMs or Direct Messages is a pretty efficient way of starting a conversation with someone you like.
However, someone might mistake your flirty messages for vulgarity or invasion of privacy.
So, it’s very important to be respectful, subtle yet quirky because the right text might just give you your chance!
Crafting the perfect, casual DM can be nerve-wracking but equally easy.
The best DMs are those that are regarding something that your crush has already done or is doing. A relatable message seems a lot less creepy than a sudden ‘hey’.
And so, here are some safe texts you can use to slide into your crush’s DMs!
1. “Your pictures have a very retro-funky vibe that’s so cool! Can you teach me how to click such pictures?”
2. “You’ve got an adorable pet. What’s the name?”
3. “The music in your stories is amazing! Can we share playlists?”
4. “Your profile really has an aesthetic vibe to it. Good thing, I’m learning the basics!”
5. “We have been following each other for quite some time. And so now I thought, why not break the ice? So, hey there!!”
6. “I have a great collection of memes. Wanna compete?”
7. “I thought I saw you at Starbucks the other day. I even called out your name. Except it was someone else!”
8. “I’m really clumsy in starting a conversation. Can you help me out?”
9. “I just heard that an awesome DJ is playing this weekend at the cafe? Should I get you an extra ticket?”
10. Or you can use the classic, “You look so amazing in this picture that I want to take you out on a date!”
Get any of these rolling and you’ll definitely start chit-chatting with your dreamy crush!
