They also will not see your profile again on the site, and you won't see them, so it won't be awkward. But you would have to work within the messaging system, which means liking someone before messaging them. If you still need help, you can email a friendly human. How to send an introductory message to someone We think it's best when conversations are between people who are interested in each other. How to send that first introduction to someone: 1.
Like them From Discover, drag their photo to the right or click the heart icon. Wait for their response Once you've messaged someone, your intro will go to their Intros tab.

There is no way 50 perfect guys were going to happen to be in my feed over the two days that I did the majority of the messaging. And a guy who looks ideal on paper doesn't mean he's going to be a potential romantic partner when met in person, anyway.
Some guys I didn't consider fully ended up being the guys I actually dated for a while, too! So I started branching out a bit, messaging guys who had a lot of good going but who might be even better when we'd meet IRL. Which was sorta fun! Second, it changed the kinds of messages I sent. At first, I'd focus on something that seemed important to both of us, mince in something flirty, and sign off with a question so that he'd feel more of a pull to respond.
By the time I was in the something-message zone, they were three sentences and a bit more general. Did that make a difference? Keep reading. The Takeaway: I have a lot more sympathy for guys online, as they are usually the first ones to make a move.
It's a lot of work, and a lot of time. It's made me rethink the messages I get, dismissing them less readily. Overall, I messaged 33 men, and 13 responded, most of them within hours if not only a day. There was no difference in response if I sent a particularly thoughtful message or something simple. Ben's take on that? Out of those 13 guys, only seven messaged a second time after I'd responded to them, and out of those guys, only five asked me out.
You'd think that, hell, five dates from 33 messages to guys you actually wanna meet isn't bad, right? It wouldn't be if all five of those invites led to real dates. But out of those five guys plus the additional three that moved to texting conversations , only one led to a real, live, in-the-flesh meeting. And nine just ghosted completely at one point or another. The Takeaway: You can't take this personally.
It was hard not to get my hopes up when those 13 responses came in quickly. But when things went dead -- especially the ghosters -- it's not like my world shifted. Will people who've sent me Intros still show up on my Who Likes You list?
If you're a paid member, you'll see people who've sent you Intros in both your Who Likes You and Intros pages. I got a notification that I received an Intro, but my Intros tab is empty! That means the Intro is no longer on OkCupid OR that you have passed on the profile that sent you the intro. Your Intros tab will show all the new Intros you've received from accounts that are still active on OkCupid and who you have not yet passed on.
I am a long-time user, and I have a paid membership, and I've noticed something weird. Well spotted!
