My brain is short-circuiting trying to write the perfect first message. So, hello.

I am trying so hard to be smooth, but mostly I'm just really hoping you'll write back.

I’m usually better at this, but your profile has made me forget all my good lines.

I had a really clever opener, but I got distracted by your smile and forgot it.

I'm just going to be direct: seeing your profile was the absolute best part of my day.

My thumb has hovered over the message button for about ten minutes. Glad I finally pressed it.

I'm forgoing the witty banter and jumping straight to: I think you're wonderful.

I’ve opened this chat three different times today. Third time's the charm, right?

My plan was to be cool and detached, but that felt dishonest. You seem amazing.

So, I'm just taking a deep breath and saying hi. Your profile is lovely.

I'm not sure what the protocol is, but I didn't want to risk you thinking I wasn't interested.
