The long cold nights are drawing in and curfing season is upon us, which can only mean one thing – time to get your best opening lines out.
The arrival of autumn usually brings with it a widespread desire among singletons to find a cuddly partner to hunker down with, and the stressful nature of 2020 so far is likely to exacerbate that feeling in many.
Luckily, the folks over at Tinder have put together a list of their top icebreakers to help you on your search for a winter romance.
‘Check out my Spotify playlist’
Tinder user Aaron, 22, says he sends a Spotify playlist to his matches to break the ice and the song titles spell out ‘Hey you, you’re cute, want to, grab a drink?’ Inventive and you can judge their music taste to boot – win/win.
‘Please tell me you’ve also been binge-watching [insert favourite show] all weekend .. Or are you more of a day-drinker now that we can’t go out past 10pm?’
Find out what your match has been doing with their lockdown free time and look for common ground. Worst case scenario you might get a new TV show recommendation out of it.
‘If you could hop on a plane right now to anywhere in the world, where would you go?’
In the year of our lord 2020, escapism is a big mood. Get your match to envision a future with you jetsetting someplace magical.
‘What does your ideal Sunday look like (aside from chatting to me of course)?’
This is another good one for finding common ground. You can tell a lot about a person by what they want to do with their precious Sundays, and you never know, their perfect day might involve you…
‘So you might not know this, but I am a really good cook and love a food challenge. If you had to choose, would you take on a TikTok Whipped Coffee challenge or a ‘Hot one’ instead?’
It can be fun to add an element of healthy competition – challenge your match and spark a reaction.
Plus, food is easy common ground.
