It’s the second thing you say that’s most important, not the opener!

Instant messaging is one of the most advanced forms of online dating. It requires quick thinking and the ability to sustain high levels of interest amongst great competition.
Most men mistakenly believe that the line you open with is the most important aspect of an instant messaging conversation. The truth of the matter is, it is actually what comes after the instant message opener that really matters most.
The basic reason for this is that if a woman decides to open your instant message, odds are she will write back at least a courtesy response or hello. It is after this initial response that it is time to play ball.
The follow-up needs to be something that will ignite immediate interest, build attraction levels and win over your potential date. Instant messaging is a fast and furious game where women will lose interest if the pick up is not done correctly.
The only way this is done is by learning effective transition techniques and story builders that allow these things to happen naturally during the course of an online pick-up. Not only should learning how to transition be treated with utmost importance, but a successful online dater learns how to amp up the excitement more and more as each moment passes by.
Think of online pick-ups as an emotional snowball. We want the emotional highs to get bigger and bigger as we roll that snowball down hill.
This should be done throughout three of the four stages of instant message game, until we finally begin to build higher comfort levels.
I’m out of room for today. More next time!
