How to start a conversation on WhatsApp

In an interview with Legit.ng, Dr. Sam Ayila, a marriage counselor, relationship coach, and sex therapist, shared tips on how men can kick-start a creative and enjoyable conversation with a lady they are interested in using WhatsApp. He mentioned:

  • To be readily accepted, start with the focus of the group you both met (if that is where you met)
  • If you have followed her before, check the things that interest her on her daily status and send her such materials.
  • Be sure you understand the correct meanings of emojis very well before you use any. Any wrongly used one will end your conversation prematurely. Only use emojis if they know their purposes well.
  • Special compliments on the DP (display photo) will also ease the mode for conversation.
  • Make your chats and language as simple as possible (that is not the time to be a professor of English)

If you are wondering how to keep a conversation going with a girl ask about her future plans. Knowing what your girl's plans for the future are is a great way to create interest. Do not make this sound like an interview, but make it interesting.

Dr. Sam emphasized that when discussing future plans with a girl you love, it's crucial to first establish a permanent definition for the relationship, among other key considerations, such as:

  • It would be best to determine where the relationship is planned to end; that will help the extent of commitment.
  • Don't make commitments before discussing anything about future plans.
  • Initiate other real-life stories or even myths concerning the subjects you desire to discuss in the future and listen to her opinions in every respect.
  • The future of any subject must also be noted in the context of her demography.
  • It would help if you also tried to be in sync with the current realities of life expectancy before delving into how the future will look in every subject of life.
