Times are different now, especially during and post pandemic. Before the pandemic, a lot of people were meeting online versus out in social settings, but now more than ever people will be doing that. Not going to lie, I met my girlfriend by sliding into her DMs, and then we never stopped talking.

If you two have been exchanging likes and comments for months, chances are they’re going to react pretty warmly to seeing your message. The worst that happens is they ignore you right?
- “OK, you always have the best music in your stories! We should swap playlists.” Everyone lowkey thinks they’re a DJ. Compliment their taste in music and find where your favorite tunes intersect. It’s a topic you’ll be able to come back to over and over again. Like ‘did you see they’re putting out a new album’ or ‘they’re coming to town and guess who got two tickets!’
- “I’m obsessed with your puppy! How long have you had them?” The only thing a dog owner loves more than their pup is talking about them. And that goes for any pet owner. Bring them up and you’ll be in!
