Tinder Openers

Here are a few tips, that you should keep in mind when opening girls on Tinder. It's different from a real-life situation so you can't use every line in our collection. However, a lot of them can be used in the conversation to make it more interesting. But first, a little advice, how to make an opening line that does work:

1. Girls on Tinder have a very short attention span
2. Their primary reason to use tinder is to get entertained
3. Most guys are really boring, that's why you can easily stand out
4. Be creative, don't use Openers like "Hey", "Nice Pictures", "How are you?"
5. Spark her interest by writing her something she has to reply to
6. This can be something funny, like an obviously overdosed compliment
7. Or you can try to bust her balls, but be careful not to offend her

With this knowledge, you can try to build your own opening lines or you can use the tinder lines from our collection below. You have probably seen some tinder pick up lines on other sites before. Unfortunately, most of them don't work, because they are just the long known Pick Up Lines. They are supposed to sound funny and entertaining. But women have an automatic defense mechanism against those approaches because they have heard them before and it's nothing creative. On the other side, Openers are created to work.

This is just a short summary, you can find some example openers in the original article: Tinder - 10 Pick Up Lines that work.

When to use it

Send your opener soon after the match, ideally within a day, while she still remembers swiping on you. A match already shows mild interest, so the message only has to be easy and fun to answer. Pick something that fits her photos or bio; a line that could go to anyone feels like a copy-paste.

Follow-up

Answer her reply in the same light tone and pick up one detail she gave you. Instead of asking a list of questions, trade small stories. After five to ten messages, suggest a simple meeting: "This is more fun than texting. Want to get a coffee or a drink on Thursday?" If she only replies with one word, send one more light message and then let it go. Long paragraphs to a short answer look needy (neediness).

Why it works

Her inbox is full of "hey" and "how are you". A message that is specific, playful and easy to reply to stands out without any effort. It also shows a bit of your personality before you meet, so she can decide if she wants more. The goal is not a clever trick but a conversation that is pleasant enough to continue.
