As women, many of us are a bit more reserved than our male counterparts when approaching someone we fancy. And while the digital buffer should make it a bit easier, it's never completely effortless. But in the spirit of 2019, shoot your shot! The only thing you have to lose is self-doubt. You don't have to overthink your opening, a simple "Hey, what's up? 🙂" will do. Hinge answers are made for starting a conversation, so choose a part of your match's profile that interests you and take it from there.
