About to message someone online...

Hi all,

Ladies I need you advice. I’m about to message someone online. She says she is a hopeless romantic like me and likes to laugh. I would imagine that this would be the key to the chance of getting a reply...

I wanted to know your thoughts on my proposed message?

Any advice would be great:

Hello, bonjour, aloha and salut! I wasn’t sure how to say hi, so I tired a couple of ways. So how are you? How has your weekend been 😬 x

I was thinking of something witty to say seen as you say you like to laugh something like “my atoms like your atoms it must be chemistry” or “you had me at online now” but I don’t want to sound cheesy 😋

On a really serious note though. Hi I’m Dave haha.

So tell me about being a make up artist? What do you do? Who are your clients?

It would be great to hear back from you, chat a little and see if we have anything in common and without sounding like I’m counting my chickens maybe even get myself a date...

Take care x

Did you send a message Dave?

I so hope OP comes back and tells us that he got a date. This thread could be our own Mumsnet romcom.

(I just want to hear some good news, even if it's for a stranger)

And yet his username is 'willing to accept advice' who clearly isn't willing to accept advice.
